In combination with the cooling of milk at the dairy farm energy can be saved in two ways. By pre-cooling a saving of 40% on electrical power can be attained in the cooling process. And, in comparison to normal energy demand for heating water for cleaning purposes, a saving of 60% is possible by using a heatpump together with the cooling engine of the bulk-tank. However, it is important to do proper calculations before decisions are taken as to equipment to be installed.
