Group Viewing Available:
Learn about a) the three legs of the stool for Ag energy conservation; b) practices created to implement on-farm energy upgrades; c) the relationship between the practices and ASABE S612; and d) heat transfer mechanisms that affect structures, equipment, and mechanical systems.
Note: This webinar provides useful background about the relationship between ASABE S612, NRCS Ag Energy Management Plans, three noted energy practices, and some history behind NRCS policy.
Participate in this webinar to learn about three of the newest practices USDA NRCS uses to implement energy conservation - Farmstead Energy, Lighting, and Building Envelope - and to understand the link between them and the Energy Auditing standard from the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers (ASABE). The discussion will include a review of the critical heat transfer modes that affect structures, equipment, and mechanical systems.
This webinar is presented by the USDA NRCS East National Technology Support Center.
