Livestock Farm Diesel Generator Project
Livestock Farm Diesel Generator Project
Continuous power for livestock breeding farms — protecting feed systems, ventilation, and cold-chain storage in remote and harsh environments.
Project Background
A leading provincial livestock breeding group operates 12 large-scale breeding farms across remote mountainous and semi-arid regions. These farms house automated feeding systems, exhaust ventilation fans, temperature control equipment, and cold-chain storage for vaccines and feed additives — all of which are power-critical. Grid supply in these areas is unstable, with frequent outages lasting 4–12 hours, directly threatening livestock health, feed quality, and biosecurity. The group launched an open tender for a reliable, environment-adaptive diesel power solution to safeguard continuous farm operations.
01. Bidding Purpose & Process
Core Bidding Objectives
- Guarantee uninterrupted power for ventilation and feeding systems.
- Withstand corrosive ammonia-rich and high-humidity farm air.
- Support cold-chain storage for vaccines and feed additives.
- Enable remote monitoring across 12 dispersed sites.
- Minimize OPEX with intelligent fuel and maintenance management.
Bidding Process
- Prequalification: Verification of agricultural and corrosive-environment deployment experience.
- Technical Bid: Evaluation of anti-corrosion design, paralleling capability, and cloud O&M platform.
- Commercial Negotiation: Review of lifecycle cost, spare parts supply, and on-site SLA.
- Award: NovArk Power secured the contract with the最优 technical-commercial composite score.
02. Post-Award Objectives
Zero-Interruption Power
Seamless auto-start within ≤8ms after grid failure to keep ventilation and feeding running.
Corrosion Resistance
Withstand ammonia-rich, high-humidity farm air with anti-corrosion coatings and materials.
Scalable Capacity
Parallel-ready architecture to scale from 200kW to 2MW as farm operations expand.
Smart O&M
Centralized remote monitoring of 12 sites via 4G cloud platform, reducing manual patrols.
03. Status Before Intervention
Prior to engaging NovArk, the breeding group relied on a mix of aging gensets and grid power, resulting in recurring operational and biosecurity risks:
- Frequent Ventilation Loss: Grid outages (4–12 hrs) caused ventilation shutdown, leading to heat stress and 3 livestock mortality incidents.
- Corrosion Failures: Ammonia and high humidity degraded standard genset enclosures, causing 6+ unit failures annually.
- Cold-Chain Risk: Vaccine and feed-additive refrigerators lost power 8+ times/year, risking batch spoilage.
- No Central Visibility: 12 dispersed farms had no unified monitoring; faults were discovered only after livestock impact.
- High OPEX: Annual maintenance exceeded ¥200,000, with manual patrols consuming 2 full-time technicians per farm.
04. Why NovArk Power?
Proven Farm Deployment
Track record of genset deployments in corrosive, high-humidity agricultural environments.
Advanced Paralleling
Deep-sea controllers ensuring ≤8ms switchover and voltage deviation ≤ ±2%.
Environmental Durability
316L stainless steel + triple anti-corrosion coatings for ammonia and salt-spray resistance.
Lifecycle Value
Intelligent fuel management and remote diagnostics reducing OPEX by 30%.
05. Proposed Solutions & Recommendations
Genset Fleet Configuration
Deployed a fleet of 12 NovArk-C200 units (one per farm) with N+1 redundancy at the central breeding hub. Modular design allows future capacity expansion via paralleling.
Anti-Corrosion Engineering
Upgraded to 316L stainless steel enclosures + three-proof paint coating + titanium alloy piping to resist ammonia (NH₃) and high humidity (≥85% RH).
Zero-Interruption Paralleling
Deep-sea parallel controller for seamless switchover (≤8ms) and synchronized load sharing across multi-unit farms.
4G Cloud O&M Platform
Centralized monitoring of fuel level, voltage, and fault codes across all 12 farms via mobile app, with AI alerts 7 days in advance.
06. Execution & Implementation
Phase 1: Site Survey & Custom Engineering
Conducted ammonia concentration and humidity profiling at all 12 farms to specify anti-corrosion grade and unit placement for optimal airflow.
Phase 2: Fleet Deployment & Commissioning
Delivered and commissioned 12 NovArk-C200 units. Completed paralleling synchronization and auto-start tests within 10 working days.
Phase 3: Cloud Integration & Training
Integrated all units into the NovArk 4G Cloud Platform and trained farm technicians on remote monitoring and basic maintenance.
Phase 4: Managed Services Activation
Transitioned to 24/7 managed services with regional spare parts stocking (filters, belts, controllers) for 48-hour on-site response.
07. Final Results & Impact
99.8%
Power Availability
0
Livestock Mortality Incidents
≤8ms
Switchover Time
30%
OPEX Reduction
The implementation successfully eliminated ventilation loss and cold-chain power failure across all 12 breeding farms. Livestock mortality incidents dropped to zero, and vaccine cold-chain integrity has been maintained without interruption for 18 consecutive months. The 4G Cloud Platform reduced manual patrols by 90%, and annual O&M costs decreased by 30%.
The project has since been expanded into a 5-year framework agreement covering an additional 8 farms, solidifying NovArk Power as the strategic power assurance partner for the group's nationwide breeding operations.
