European Growers Turn to Horticulture LEDs

GE Current has announced a partnership with Aquila Capital to provide funding solutions for growers looking to install low-energy LED lighting.

The partnership will allow growers across Europe who are designing new indoor farming facilities — or upgrading existing installations to the latest lighting technology — to deploy Current’s range of Arize horticultural LED solutions, faster and with the aim of no up-front capital expenditure.

Projects financed through the new partnership have the potential to achieve CO2 savings of 30-40% vs existing installations, with repayment calculations based on a proportion of the future energy costs.
