• Solar-powered refrigeration for commercial cold storage applications

  • Solar-powered-refrigeration.jpg When you know that electricity is a rare and cherished commodity, every effort for alternative sources is welcome, especially in developing nations. And so MIT has come out with a refrigerator that can run on solar power. This system designed by Promethean Power Systems can be used as a commercial cold-storage especially where there are a lot of power failures. This will help store perishable food items especially if the time-to-market is considerably long. It will also create a cost-effective solution in the cold-chain food distribution system. The environmental benefits are an added plus.
