Environmental Conservation
Using solar-powered equipment will eliminate about 50,000 litres of fossil fuel per year, equal to 118 Metric Tons of CO2, the equivalent of 1,950 threes planted for 10years or the emissions from 25 vehicles in a year*.
Cut Green House Gas Emission
Implementation of our pilot will reduce produce rotting by 57% which would eliminate an additional 600 metric Tons a year of CO2*
Job Creation
Jobs created by the pilot: 10 direct; 30 indirect. This will go to 900 directly; and as many as 3 times in-direct at scale (5 years)
Reduce Post Harvest Losses
Small holder farmers produce life extension from 2 days to up to 21 days, enabling them to increase their earnings and reduce spoilage of food due to lack of cold chain.
