Providing off grid communities with the tools to live and live well.
For some people across the globe, waking up each morning is the starting line of a race against the daylight hours. Each minute of every day is spent collecting clean drinking water, harvesting food and working to earn money in order to provide for their families. An unyielding determination fuels the energy required to walk for miles to get clean water and conquer hours of strenuous work in order to provide loved ones with the provisions necessary for life. With the absence of power lines, many of these activities come to a sudden halt when the sun goes down. The race is over until the next morning when it all begins again.
People from remote areas of India, Philippines, Kenya and other countries spend their days seeking out life-giving provisions even if it requires all the time and energy they have. So imagine how life-changing it would be for one of those families or an entire community to have easily accessible clean water, electricity, and fresh, nutritious foods on hand.
The Aldelano Solar ColdBox has the power to not only provide easy access to clean, drinkable water, but also renewable resources like solar power electricity and off grid cold storage to preserve fresh vegetables and meat. For those who run the race each and every day, it may sound too good to be true — but it’s not.
Aldelano’s Solar ColdBox can come equipped with the Solar WaterMaker, which creates clean water from thin air — literally. It collects moisture from the air, purifies it, and then transforms it into clean water that can be used for many things including drinking, cooking, and even micro-farming for sustainable living. The Solar WaterMaker has the ability to provide off grid communities all over the world with 190 liters (50 gallons) of drinkable water every single day.
Remote, off grid areas can also benefit from the luxury of this alternative energy product because of its beneficial function as a mini-warehouse for cold storage. A small agricultural community would be better suited with the Solar ColdBox in order to preserve food for distribution and increase the life of crops prior to transporting them to the marketplace.
While the applications of the Solar ColdBox may reach as far as Asia, India and Palestine, they also impact the lives of people right here at home in America. Hundreds of thousands of people in the United States are intentionally living a simpler life including communities like Emerald Earth near Boonville, CA, the Earthaven community near Black Mountain, NC, and the Greater World Community near Taos, NM.
The phrase “living off the grid” has evolved to encompass a variety of situations for people around the globe and the Solar ColdBox can be utilized anywhere. Find out more about the many applications of the Solar ColdBox and the Solar WaterMaker and how your organization can help provide not just clean water, electricity and cold storage, but also hope and life to off grid communities.
