Research into on farm power generation has produced details of the options, and explored feasibility of adoption of such systems. Growers can use this to help them make informed decisions about the economic, technical and operational costs and benefits of the various technologies, the challenges of installation and operation, and the suitability of systems to individual ventures. Australian vegetable growers are major consumers of electricity, with on farm irrigation, heating and cooling processes, processing and packing plants creating significant power demands. Electricity retail prices have increased on average by more than 60% in real terms over the five years to 2012–13, and are likely to continue. However, falling installation costs of some renewables, and incentive schemes, have created opportunities for growers to reduce energy costs and meet sustainability goals by adopting on farm power generation.
