Dairy Energy Efficiency

The use of energy efficient milking equipment and renewable technologies can play an important role in reducing carbon emissions from the dairy sector. The SEAI provides a grant scheme for dairy farmers for investing in energy efficient vacuum and milk pump technology.

Dairy Energy Decision Support Tool

Teagasc, CIT and the SEAI have developed a new decision support tool available for dairy farmers to help them make more informed decisions around dairy farm energy options and technology. The tool provides the return on investment including eligible grant aid for various technology including plate cooler, solar photovoltaic and variable speed drive etc.

Milk Quality Ireland interprets the ISO international standards on milking equipment for use in Ireland and defines further additional recommendations.
