I read this article here, so I thought you'd all appreciate a followup. I pointed out in the comments that they were definitely wrong. I got in touch with them (was not easy to do) and it's finally been corrected.

Editor's Note, July 26, 2023: A previous version of this article incorrectly stated that vertical farms can use up to 90 percent less energy than traditional farms. In fact, that number referred to the amount of energy one vertical farm used in comparison to other vertical farms. We’ve updated the story to reflect this change. We regret the error.
