Energy solutions for poultry, hog and livestock operations
Ventilation, heating and lighting cannot fail in a modern barn. ecojiva delivers integrated energy solutions that protect your animals, your margins and your operation.
Poultry & Livestock
Key energy challenges
Continuous ventilation
Tunnel and cross ventilation fans run in stages around the clock and ramp with summer heat.
Reliability critical
Minutes without ventilation in summer can cause losses; alarms and generators are standard, but fuel and transfer failures happen.
Heating & lighting
Brooder heating, lighting programs and feed handling add load across the flock or herd cycle.
High demand & peaks
Fan staging, feed augers and water pumps coincide on hot afternoons, exactly when utility peaks occur.
Cost pressure
Energy per bird or per head is rising with rate cases across Iowa, Minnesota, Indiana, Ohio and Pennsylvania.
Regulatory compliance
Integrator contracts, animal-welfare audits and biosecurity plans require documented environmental control.

Questions from poultry & livestock operators
Can ecoSEMS control barn ventilation safely?
ecoSEMS never overrides the barn controller’s temperature logic. It shifts non-critical loads (feed handling, water heating, lighting programs, battery charging) around the peak and stages fans within the limits the barn controller allows.
How large a solar system can a farm install?
Farm net-metering and distributed-generation caps vary by state and utility; Michigan, Minnesota, Iowa and Ohio each treat farms differently. The state pages summarize the rules and the free model sizes the system.
