Business Idea: Technology for Indoor Farm Lighting
The business idea revolves around a technology that replaces artificial lighting in an indoor farm with highly engineered sun tubes, supplemented by LEDs and controlled by existing greenhouse software. This innovative approach allows sunlight to enter the grow room through sun tubes, with LEDs compensating for any decrease in sunlight caused by clouds. The sun tubes are manufactured by a third party, while the LEDs are manufactured by another third party. Furthermore, the required software already exists in the market. This technology provides between 50-80% of the light needed for plant growth and significantly reduces the heat load generated in a greenhouse or typical indoor grow environment.
