Question 1

What is Energy-as-a-Service (EaaS)?

Accepted Answer

Energy-as-a-Service is a subscription-based energy model that provides dairy farmers with access to green energy without a capital outlay. It combines microgrid systems with green grid energy and offers a full-service warranty for 10 years and, in select cases, even longer.

Question 2

Can the customers incorporate other assets as part of the subscription service?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Farming equipment that uses energy can also be added to the agreement without capital outlay.

Question 3

How does the microgrid system work for dairy farms?

Accepted Answer

A microgrid combines renewable energy sources (like solar, wind, or biogas) and battery storage tailored to the farm's energy needs. It can operate independently or supplement the grid.

Question 4

What is the benefit of mixing microgrid energy with green grid energy?

Accepted Answer

Combining the two energy sources ensures uninterrupted power, consistent energy quality, and lower emissions while locking in a predictable rate per kWh for up to 10 years for up to 100% of your energy.

Question 5

What does "fixed kWh rate" mean?

Accepted Answer

A fixed kWh rate is a consistent energy price for every kilowatt-hour used, removing the risk of fluctuating energy costs.

Question 6

Is there a commitment period for this service?

Accepted Answer

The agreement typically lasts up to 10 years, with some energy use commitments, which typically amount to 40%—60% of your current energy use. This provides cost predictability, full support, and stability for dairy operations.
