Yield up, energy down — fully automated
SENSOR & LIGHTING AUTOMATION · CUSTOM BUILD
A horticulture technology grower had an algorithm that could
increase yield and cut power consumption — but no way to apply it
beyond manual changes to greenhouse lighting.
The Challenge
Only manual changes to greenhouse lighting were possible, with no light-
sensor readings feeding back into the system. Manual updates weren’t scalable
for wider industry adoption — and with growing consuming large amounts of
power, reducing emissions is critical for sustainable operations.
What Enably Did
We built a custom application to receive data from light sensors and automate
changes to the lighting system, coding the grower’s own yield-optimisation
algorithm into the application alongside dynamic dashboards of lighting
performance. The next phase extends the platform with agentic capabilities
and new data sources.
The Outcome
- Dynamic light adjustment for optimised plant growth
- Efficient energy distribution balancing cost and performance
- Extended illumination periods for enhanced productivity
