Case study
University of Manitoba — Smart Vertical Farming Pilot Facility
Smart vertical farming pilot facility
Designed, installed & operated
a full small-scale vertical farm funded by Efficiency Manitoba
Energy model validated
predicting energy use and production for proposed vertical farm designs
What we did
How LGTC helped
The University of Manitoba has a full small-scale vertical farm funded by Efficiency Manitoba. We designed, installed and operated this farm while teaching a team of Biosystems Engineering students how to grow produce indoors.
The farm was used to validate an in-house energy model created by Trina Semenchuk. The energy model predicts energy consumption and production for proposed vertical farm designs.
