Additional info
In the pilot project, the following results are expected:
14 844 t of CO2/year emission reduction for the heat supply to the greenhouse (otherwise generated with fossil fuels);
5 387 t of CO2/year emission reduction by burning greenhouse residues instead of disposing them in landfill (reduction of 256 t of CH4/year);
498 t of CO2/year emissions avoided in CO2 liquid production;
133 t of CO2/year emission reduction due to the avoidance of transport to greenhouses;

Assessment
This section contains a brief assessment of the FEFTS described.
There are 3 basic categories: General, Environmental and Socioeconomic assessment.
The purpose of this assessment is to give a quick overview to the potential FEFTS user of its application benefits.
For each question, the Likert scale is used with the following possible answers:
Strongly disagree, Disagree, Neither agree nor disagree (Neutral)/non applicable, Agree, Strongly agree
General
This FEFTS contributes to improve the energy profiles of farming systems:Environmental
The application of this FEFTS directly reduces fossil energy use, in terms of:- Buildings heat use
Socioeconomic
The application of this FEFTS contributes to cost reductions of farming systems:Keep in mind that this assessment is subjective, based on publicly available information.
All registered users are asked to evaluate each FEFTS and when an adequate number of reviews is gathered the results depicted here are updated. Each review is screened in order to avoid malicious practices.
FEFTS providers who do not agree with the assessment results, can send their inquiry to info@agrofossilfree.eu and a direct action based on their petition will be taken.
