The Impact of Energy-Efficient Technologies on the Development of the Agricultural Industry
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The increase in the population as a whole gradually requires solving the issues of continuous development of the agro-industrial complex in all directions and components. This development is accompanied by an increase in energy consumption, in the total balance of which electricity occupies a significant share. The purpose of this study is to develop a mathematical model of the use of infrared means for heating agro-industrial premises, which affects the formation of energy-saving and energy-saving processes of enterprises. The agrarian potential of Ukraine was analyzed and compared with other countries of the world for awareness, analysis and relevant conclusions regarding energy consumption and frugality. This helped, based on calculations and foreign experience, to prove the effectiveness of the proposed mathematical model. And its empiric results of application in the form of the use of a copper plate allowed to prove efficiency due to the reduction of electricity consumption in the conditions of maintaining the temperature regime of industrial-type premises not higher than 22–26 0C when the equipment is operating at an output power of 40 W. The results of the research are the development of the existing theoretical foundations of ensuring the effective use of energy resources in agricultural organizations and can be used by economic entities and regional authorities for the purpose of making informed decisions in the field of energy-saving policy development in the agricultural sector.
