Ag-Energy Nexus: Cooling as a Service

Increasing access to refrigeration and cold storage is critical to strengthening agricultural value chains and enhancing climate adaptation. By reducing post-harvest loss and improving food security, cooling services can improve rural livelihoods and increase farmer income. However, cold chain technology is unavailable to many smallholder farmers in Africa due to high upfront costs and a lack of reliable electricity. Our panel of speakers will discuss how solar-powered cooling, PAYG services and a community-based approach are bringing this solution to new customers and markets.
