A Simple and Effective Model for Predicting the Thermal Energy Requirements of Greenhouses in Europe

In this paper, a simple model is proposed for predicting the thermal energy requirements of greenhouses in Europe. The model estimates the annual heating requirements and the maximum required heating power, along with the corresponding heating and zero-energy operating periods. It is based on the gr...
