Solar on show at cotton energy field days

摘要

WITH diesel supplying 95 per cent of cotton production energy needs, according to National Centre of Engineering in Agriculture (NCEA) research, renewables can enhance the diversity of on-farm energy sources and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.More than 80 growers and advisers visited Scott Morgan's Gunnedah farm, 'Kensal Green' for the recent Cottonlnfo Big Day Out to hear from energy auditors, installers and specialists, and to tour solar power installations.
