Whether growing oysters, mussels, clams or cockles, shellfish farmers are increasingly faced with new demands. Climate conditions and regulations are forcing them to adapt their facilities to reduce pollutant emissions and better withstand environmental change.
In particular, European Union regulations oblige farmers to equip themselves with renewable energy systems, in order to modernize their business while respecting the environment.
Basic installations for this type of use generally require 1 x 450W solar panels and 2.5 kW battery capacity, sized to power a pump with a maximum output of 500W.
Each installation is unique and needs to be sized according to a number of factors, including climate, shellfish type and the specific needs of the farm.
To best adapt to these constraints, we recommend gradual installation of solar panels and lithium batteries. This step-by-step approach makes it possible to fine-tune the installation and optimize its performance according to actual needs.
