For den Haan Greenhouses, efficiency brings an extended growing season

Family owned and locally operated, den Haan Greenhouses specializes in producing fresh, greenhouse-grown tomatoes and cucumbers. Recognized for their innovative agricultural practices, they were interested in investing in energy efficient technology that could enhance their facility and increase production. They partnered with us to install horticulture LED lights to help scale their operation, reduce costs, increase productivity, yield, and quality. Since the install, they have been
experiencing great energy savings and all of the good things efficiency brings.

“The program aligned perfectly with what we were trying to do – installing the most efficient LED lighting on the market.” – Luke den Haan, CEO

The LED lighting creates summer-like conditions inside the greenhouse, so no matter what season it is, produce can grow. With year-round production, they can offer Nova Scotian’s fresh and locally grown vegetables throughout the winter. These energy efficiency upgrades also help to lower carbon miles and greenhouse gas emissions.

In addition to these benefits, den Haan Greenhouses will enjoy energy savings for years to come.
