Data confidence 85 high
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The study was conducted to determine the possibilities and advantages of introducing a generating complex based on renewable energy sources to increase the sustainability and energy efficiency of agricultural facilities.For this purpose, a model of a generating complex using renewable energy sources to meet the energy needs of agricultural facilities has been evaluated.The impact of the integration of the Bergey Excel 10 wind turbine, the NIBE F1155 geothermal installation, and the JA Solar JAM72S20-405/PR solar panels with the SolarEdge SE40K inverter on the energy systems of agricultural facilities was considered.The integration of solar panels and low-power wind turbines significantly reduced energy costs, achieving savings from 5,500 kWh to 180,000 kWh per year compared to conventional sources.During the evaluation of the effectiveness of the complex, it was revealed that the payback period for investments in such technologies makes them economically feasible.In addition, the findings showed that the productivity of agricultural facilities has increased due to improved working conditions and lower energy costs.An analysis of the environmental impact of the generating complex showed a reduction in the level of polluting CO 2 emissions by 10-25 tonnes per year, which had a positive impact on the health of local ecosystems.The study also revealed that the introduction of renewable energy sources can be an incentive to create new jobs in the agricultural sector, which contributes to the economic development of the region.
