Innovation
At Cove Electrical, we’re proud to be Alberta’s trusted partner for agricultural automation. Based in Bonnyville, AB, we serve grain farmers, seed growers, and ag retailers across Alberta, BC, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba. Our team specializes in electrical automation, IoT systems, and smart monitoring solutions designed for the real demands of Western Canadian agriculture — from short harvest windows to extreme cold weather operations. We help producers streamline operations, protect grain quality, and make smarter decisions with technology built for your land.
With deep expertise in PLC-based automation, sensor integration, and remote wireless control, our team transforms traditional grain handling and field monitoring systems into smart, connected infrastructures. We provide complete automation services for grain drying and handling systems, integrating high-level sensors, HMI touchscreens, and real-time data analytics to give farmers full visibility and control.
Get real-time data on your grain conditions.
Protect your grain investment with real-time bin monitoring built for Alberta’s unpredictable storage conditions. Our wireless sensor systems track temperature, moisture, and CO₂ levels 24/7, sending alerts directly to your phone before problems become costly losses. Whether you’re managing a single bin or a large commercial operation near Bonnyville or across the Peace Country, we give you full visibility without leaving your cab.
Know exactly when to plant, spray, or harvest.
Alberta’s growing season moves fast, and the weather moves faster. Our on-farm weather stations deliver hyper-local data on temperature, humidity, rainfall, wind speed, and leaf wetness so you know exactly when to plant, spray, or harvest. Powered by Metos technology and installed by our team across Northern and Central Alberta, these stations integrate directly with your other automation systems for a complete picture of your operation.
Protect grain quality with airflow that works.
Proper aeration is the difference between grade-A grain and a spoiled bin. Our S3 high-efficiency aeration fans are engineered for Alberta’s climate, delivering powerful, consistent airflow to keep moisture levels in check through freeze-thaw cycles and late-season storage. We size, install, and automate fan systems for farms of all scales across the Bonnyville region and throughout Western Canada.
Automate your entire grain handling system.
Take the guesswork and manual labour out of your grain handling operation. Our PLC-based electrical automation systems integrate dryers, conveyors, fans, and augers into one seamless, remotely controlled system. From small family farms in the Lakeland region to large commercial elevators across Alberta, we design and install automation infrastructure that reduces downtime, improves safety, and keeps your operation running at peak efficiency year-round.
We proudly partner with proven agtech leaders like Metos (advanced weather stations), Adaptive Agriculture (wireless grain monitoring), and S3 Air Systems (high-performance aeration fans). These partnerships allow us to bring you field-tested, reliable technology you can count on.

Cove Electrical works with operations like yours.
You work hard to produce a succes-sful harvest. We help you protect it and maximize its value with tech-nology that monitors and manages your grain 24/7. No more guesswork climbing bins – get peace of mind that your grain is safe and in optimal condition.
Running a commercial storage or retail operation means handling massive volumes safely and effi-ciently. Our automation systems let you control dryers, fans, and conve-yors with a touch, improving safety and throughput. Maintain grain quality for your customers and simplify operations across your elevator or retail locations.
For researchers and advisors, data accuracy is everything. We provide precise field and storage data through our weather and monito-ring tools, helping you conduct trials, manage research plots, or advise growers with confidence. Our reliable equipment and sup-port ensure your focus stays on insights, not troubleshooting tech.
We start with a friendly on-site visit to get to know your operation and goals. We listen to your ideas and challenges so we can craft a solution that truly works for you.
Next, our experts design a custom automation solution tailored to your operation. We then provide a clear, no-nonsense proposal that shows exactly how it will work and what results you can expect.
Our team comes to your site to install the system, handling all wiring and setup with minimal disruption. We meticulously test each component to ensure everything runs safely and smoothly. Finally, we walk you through the system and train your team so everyone feels confident using it every day.
Even after your system is up and running, we stick around for the long haul. You can count on us for ongoing support and maintenance when-ever you need it. We also help fine-tune and optimize your setup over time as your needs evolve.
Whether you’re a grain farmer outside Bonnyville, a seed grower in the Peace Country, or running a commercial elevator anywhere in Alberta or BC, we’re your local experts in farm automation. Tell us what you’re working on and we’ll design a solution that fits your operation, your budget, and the demands of Western Canadian agriculture.
