Sustainable energy solutions for Loverbos pig farm
The success story of Rik Loverbos and Inno+
In early 2020, Rik Loverbos, who owns a farrow-to-finish pig farm with his parents, discovered an article about Europe’s most advanced piglet house: Van Asten Group in Sterksel. This was the beginning of a new chapter for Loverbos and his parents, who were in the process of building new piglet house. After meeting the author of the article, they resolutely decided on a U-turn in their climate system.
Despite their previous unfamiliarity with Inno+, the success stories of fellow pig farmers using the Triple EEE system gave them confidence. The tangible results convinced them to purchase not one, but two Triple EEE systems, along with a heat pump and involvement in a sustainability plan. This plan included the implementation of a heat grid, boiler conversions, heat pump integration and, of course, the Triple EEE system in their sow stalls.
Advantages of the Triple EEE system
- Energy saving: Reusing heat results in lower energy costs and a smaller ecological footprint.
- Environmental friendliness: Reduction of emissions and treatment of waste create a cleaner environment.
- Improved air quality: Filtering outgoing air results in a healthier environment for animals and employees.
- Regulatory compliance: The system complies with strict emission and environmental regulations, preventing fines.
- Sustainable image: Implementation of the system promotes a sustainable image and strengthens customer relations.
Operation of the Triple EEE system
- Energy recovery: The system reuses heat from the barn for heating and other purposes, saving considerable energy.
- Emission reduction: Advanced filtration removes pollutants and odours from outgoing air, leading to reduced harmful emissions.
The Loverbos story shows how collaboration with innovative partners like Inno+ can transform traditional agricultural businesses into sustainable and efficient business models.
