Project Abstract
Dairy farming is a very energy intensive form of farming. In order to decarbonise the dairy farming sector, it is necessary to better integrate renewable energy generation into dairy farming. This project proposes using Artificial Intelligence methods to effectively integrate renewable generation into dairy farming, by combining it with recent technological developments in the energy sector. This project will result in more energy efficient dairy farms, stemming from advances in Artificial Intelligence that have not yet been applied to the dairy farming industry.
