Barn, grain and woodchips drying facilities, metal workshop and the main building have annual electricity consumption of approximately 340 000 kWh, and heating consumption of approximately 700 000 kWh. Due to the high consumption it was decided that the farm should be made self-sufficient in both electricity and heating.
