Dairies and Livestock 

Happy, Healthy Cows and Efficient Operations

Dairy and livestock farmers can upgrade to energy-efficient solutions to lower energy bills and help improve their bottom line. With rebates and incentives available through the Agriculture Energy Savings Action Plan (AESAP), it’s easier than ever to update equipment and take control of energy and operating costs. Upgrading fans, refrigeration, and other critical technologies can boost the cow’s happiness and business efficiency.

Many upgrades eligible for AESAP rebates are low-cost or offer a short payback period. Improving facilities doesn’t just save energy; they can also create a more comfortable environment for your cows to be happier and healthier.
