This project investigates how, using new fixed and mobile infrastructure, advanced smart energy and water management can lead to water, electricity and heat optimizations at agri-food companies. As a smart food hub, VEG-i-TEC aims to be an accelerator to help food companies innovate to achieve their energy and water-related KPIs, be more independent of energy and water prices, raw material shortages and control production costs. All this without compromising the quality/safety of the finished product.As a smart food hub, VEG-i-TEC wants to be an accelerator to help food companies innovate.
