Installing Solar-Powered Fridges in Developing Countries Is an Effective Way to Reduce Hunger and Fight Climate Change

By Abay Yimere Food loss and waste are major problems around the world. When food is tossed aside or allowed to spoil, it makes economies less productive and leaves people hungry. It also harms Earth’s climate by generating methane, a potent greenhouse gas. Food loss and waste accounts for 4% of ...

Under the scheme of TIFAC under Department of Science and Technology, Government of India and Small Industries Development Bank of India SIDBI, a Bengaluru based called Aegeus Technologies design and develop a completely and system for cleaning . Different robotic have been designed depending upon the scale of the solar projects and their use.
Government of India’s Technology Think Tank TIFAC launched a white paper conceptualizing of , on its 35th Foundation Day.

The paper conceptualizes a smart healthcare ecosystem, with action recommendations on around the same. All recommendations in the paper are driven out of on-ground pilot implementation and relevant feasibility checks, thus ensuring the policy recommendation gets converted to on-ground action.

Dr. Anil Kakodkar, former chairman, Atomic Energy Commission, stressed that lower cost of energy is key to the growth of the economy, and India should focus on developing disruptive technologies to keep the cost competitive and meet the goal of decarbonisation by 2050, at a talk today.

“Clean energy supply would increase 120 to 140 times, and this increase has to come primarily through solar, wind, and nuclear. Share of electricity would go up primarily for e-mobility. Surplus biomass can be converted to hydrogen or hydrogen substitutes for use in industry and transportation. Carbon Capture and Utilisation (CCU) is inevitable for transition to low carbon economy, Dr. Kakodkar, who is also the former chairman, Technology Information, Forecasting & Assessment Council TIFAC , said at the online talk organized as part of the TIFAC Tech talk series.
