Why does Somalia need a cold & freezing storage facility?
The agricultural sector suffers from up to 40% post-harvest losses, affecting productivity and contributing to high food prices. SOMCOOL is revolutionizing the storage and preservation of perishable goods in Somalia with our innovative off-grid, solar-powered cold and freezing storage facilities.
How much power does Somalia have?
Current generation capacity is 106 megawatts, largely composed of expensive and pollutant diesel generators, though Somalia has great potential for solar and offshore wind power generation that can support a transition to green energy and reduce GHG emissions.
Why is energy a problem in Somalia?
Somalia faces significant food insecurity, further worsened by the loss of perishable goods. Over 95% of energy installations in Somalia use hydrocarbons, hindering the adoption of sustainable, renewable cold storage solutions. Energy can cost as much as $1/Kwh
Why is energy so expensive in Somalia?
Over 95% of energy installations in Somalia use hydrocarbons, hindering the adoption of sustainable, renewable cold storage solutions. Energy can cost as much as $1/Kwh The agricultural sector suffers from up to 40% post-harvest losses, affecting productivity and contributing to high food prices.
How does cold storage affect the food supply chain in Somalia?
In Somalia, a nation facing harsh climates and food scarcity, the nearly non-existent cold storage chain severely affects vital contributors to the food supply chain, including smallholder farmers, fishermen, and wholesalers.
Should Somalia be betting on Clean Power?
The data makes it clear: renewables aren’t just environmentally sound; they’re also economically and socially transformative. For Somalia, betting big on clean power may be the smartest and most achievable development decision of this decade.
