The industry value from the aquaponics segment will hit a lucrative growth rate through 2032. Aquaponics stands out for its sustainability, operating on a closed-loop principle. Fish excrement nourishes the plants, and in return, the plants purify the water for the fish.
Innovate UK backs collaborative project linking AI with automation & control to improve indoor farming sustainability
The project's core objective is to tackle the inefficiencies prevalent in TCEA by leveraging innovative technologies and methodologies - thereby improving energy efficiency.
Horticulture LEDs and Photophyll™ Select LED
Cree LED is the first LED supplier to fully characterize products in horticulture metrics, such as PPF and Red PPF %, instead of lighting metrics, such as CCT and CRI.
Integrating Renewable Energy in Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA)
The energy demands of indoor farming can be substantial, leading to increased greenhouse gas emissions and environmental strain. Enter renewable energy - a game-changing approach to powering CEA systems while reducing their carbon footprint.

Photophyll™ Select from CREE LED
Photophyll Select is a new phosphor-converted LED color with blue and green spectral output tuned for horticulture applications. These LEDs are designed to replace the white LEDs that are common in two-channel white + red horticulture luminaires. By maximizing green content and minimizing red content versus standard lighting LEDs, this LED color enables significant enhancements to luminaire cost and performance. Photophyll Select LEDs are the industry's first LEDs to be entirely binned in horticulture metrics, enabling more straightforward spectrum design without confusing translations or conversions. The spectral output of these LEDs is binned into two metrics, both of which are based on the amount of PPF in standard Blue (400-499 nm), Green (500-599 nm) and Red (600-700 nm) bands. The two spectral metrics are percentage of Red PPF content and the ratio of Green to Blue PPF content.
