One of the major challenges to tackle is waste (produce, milk, etc.) generated by the food and agri sectors due to a lack of access to cold storage facilities. Farmers lose their livelihood after harvesting simply because they could not get the products sold in due time. A parallel topic to address here is also in the health sector where vaccines, medicines, blood products, and other essential items that perish due to the unavailability of appropriate cooling storage facilities.
The introduction of sustainable cooling innovations driven by decentralized renewable energies (DRE) can be instrumental in dealing with the above-mentioned issues. African countries have an opportunity to replace fossil fuel technologies with a more sustainable, climate-friendly, and efficient energy strategy that adheres to the Paris Agreement and low-carbon growth. Access to such novel innovations can enable a clean energy transition by enabling development in the rural as well as urban communities of Africa.
The 9th webinar under the PWCET series seeks to discuss how the introduction of sustainable cooling innovations driven by DRE can be instrumental and highlight the best practices from the sector. The speakers’ interventions will be followed by a moderated panel discussion including interaction with the audience.
