Project Outcome
During the project five solar cooling systems have been locally assembled in Zambia and Tanzania and implemented together with different end-users:
- Solar cold room for hard cheese production at a dairy farm
- Milk cooling system at dairy cooperatives
- Mobile milk cooling system to cool surplus milk of smallscale farmers
- Solar cold room for school cafeteria and neigbouring farmers
- Solar cold room for training facility
In addition, the project successfully empowered local solar technicians and companies and operated several activities to start dissemination of cooling technologies in the target countries:
- In Zambia and in Tanzania local assembly workshops for the construction of SelfChill cooling systems have been equipped and started assembly.
- In Tanzania a technical training and conference took place. In addition, SelfChill was presented at two local trade fairs and one international conference.
- In Zambia in cooperation with the local training institution, two technical trainings, a conference and info days have been operated. SelfChill concept was presented at a local agricultural trade fair.
In addition, awareness-building activities took place via presentation at international conferences, social media and press publications.
