Power Consumption in the Poultry Industry

• In the UK alone 11,550 million eggs are produced annually

• 99% of these are produced under artificial lighting conditions

• This creates on average 246m tons of CO2 a year• And accounts for 8.5 billion watts of power; the

equivalent domestic energy use of a small city• That does not include the Broiler Industry• The industry must change as mandatory energy

policies are applied

Current Lighting Options

The traditional tungsten bulb

• Inefficient – 98% heat 2% light• High heat output – high red light• Short lifespan• Huge power consumption• Will dim• Cheap• Being phased out

Current Lighting Options - contThe Compact Fluorescent Lamp (CFL)

• Lower power consumption, • Contains dangerous gases• Contains mercury• No dimming ability• Poor light quality• Disposal issues

• The only purpose-designed LED-based

solution exclusively for poultry • Successfully tested extensively with major

producers• Exceptional trial results• Significant benefits: reduced power

consumption and carbon emissions; improved animal welfare

glo AGRILAMP

This led to the creation of the first purpose designed LED,

the glo AGRILAMP

“A major development in poultry lighting”. AJ IEC

Following thorough research the

effects of blue and green light on

chickens was established.

• 50% reduction in temperature

• 35,000 hrs 70% output

• Dusk-till-dawn compatible

• Reduced aggression

• Reduced smothering

• Better feed conversion

• Shorter production periods

• Lower feather wear by up to 80%

• Calmer flocks

• Less Aggression

• Up to 90% energy reduction

• Even-lighting across cages

• No shadows or flickering

• Standard ES26/27 & BC fitting

• Non-toxic – no mercury

• 100% recyclable

• Lower Mortality

• Less waste food up to 15% recorded

• Stabilized temperatures

The very first shed for Noble Foods just 63 Agrilamps. Noble Foods now has 6,000 Agrilamps and is rolling out to a grand total of 18,000 Agrilamps.

Noble Foods the UK’s largest Egg producer. 64 owned farms and 1000 contract farms

Pioneers

• Bulb rental

• No deposit

• Huge cost savings

• Reduced replacements

• Rapid path to reduced emissions

• Lower labour costs

• Additional direct energy

reduction when dimmed – not gained with Incandescent or CFL

Making it easy – financial planning

Seeing is believing

Just two Agrilamps started this activity in GGPAviagen now save £1.02 ($2 US)per bulb per week
