Challenge: How can we make vertical farms more sustainable?
Research topics / questions:
- how can we lower the initial investment in a v.f.
- how can we reduce the electricity consumption in a v.f.
- how can we use renewable energy for a v.f.
- how can we lower the opex (operational expenses) for a v.f.
- how can we use AI / machine learning to make a v.f. more efficient?
- how can we use robotics to make a v.f. more efficient?
Also, here are some movies that you could watch for inspiration 😊
