MISSION & TECHNOLOGY
We want to chill the world! And we want it the Off-Grid way!
OUR GOAL: SUSTAINABLE AND AFFORDABLE COOLING FOR EVERYONE AND EVERYWHERE
At SelfChill, we believe that sustainable cooling is not just a necessity, but a responsibility.
Our mission is to make cooling systems more energy-efficient and eco-friendly, while ensuring maximum performance, durability and affordability. For us, sustainable cooling solutions offer enormous potential:
- to minimize post-harvest losses in agriculture and improve product quality,
- to make everyday life in hot regions cooler; at home; in offices or other workplaces,
- to protect sensitive equipment against heat even for locations far from the electricity grid and to make it more durable.
Sustainability is key and we follow it in all perspectives:
- All our systems can be powered by PV
- They operate with highest efficiency
- Use of refrigerants with lowest global warming potential
- Use of thermal energy storage
- Modular solutions adaptable to local context
- Promote local construction of the systems with sustainable construction and insulation material
- Keeping the transport volume and weight low
- Looking for the most affordable solution for the end-users.
TECHNOLOGY: HOW IT WORKS
SelfChill offers cooling technologies that can be all supplied by photovoltaics. We have developed the SelfChill Solar Cooling Units based on the principle of vapour compression heat pumps. These Solar Cooling Units are the heart of different applications:
- DC systems with thermal water storage, most cost-efficient and scalable. Suitable for local assembly and construction: milk cooling systems (4° Celsius), cold rooms for fruits and vegetables (8-15° Celsius) See how it works.
- Battery cooling and cooling of heat-sensitive equippment based on SelfChill Cooling Units.
- Ice block makers with SelfChill Cooling Units placed in a brine bath.
Most cooling systems use conventional refrigerants that have a high Global Warming Potential (GWP). Our systems are filled with natural refrigerants such as R-290 and R-600a, which have zero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) and ultra-low Global Warming Potential (GWP).
WHO DO WE ADDRESS
- Our first products were especially designed for small-holder farmers or cooperatives in rural areas in Africa, Latin America or Asia that are not connected to the electricity grid. Major agricultural products and food can be cooled such as milk, vegetables, fruits, meat, fish or any liquids and drinks.
- We have extended our product portfolio to supply also innovative solutions for technical equipment cooling in hot areas.
- Phaesun as distribution company located in Germany aims to cooperate with local assembly and distribution partners in the target countries enabling them to offer individual cooling solutions to their clients. Furthermore, we address NGOs, GOs and social initiatives to use our cooling products in their projects and offer engineering support and trainings.
