CEA can be integrated with building design and operation to provide food security through a shorter and more resilient supply chain and enhance environmental quality. Resources such as heat, CO2, reclaimed nutrients and water required in CEA operation can be supplied with byproducts from combined heat and power, data center, factory, or water treatment plant.
