Sustainable cooling hub for small-scale fisheries in Indonesia

印度尼西亚是世界上最大的群岛国家和第二大海产品生产国。然而，印度尼西亚的沿海社区，主要由小规模的渔民组成，居住着该国近三分之一的最贫困人口。小规模渔民缺乏将其渔获物从农村地区保存到市场所需的技术和资源。这导致了高达35%的海鲜预消费损失。因此，获得冷链技术对于缓解这一问题至关重要。该项目旨在设计一个可持续的冷却中心，可以覆盖小规模渔业的冷却服务。该中心将通过太阳能利用和能源储存最大限度地发挥可再生能源的潜力。该项目有潜力提供成果，并通过优化设计的可持续冷却中心影响能源获取。最佳设计将考虑技术、财务和环境性能，确保高效、经济和清洁的冷却解决方案。这将大大改善大多数小规模渔村的家庭获得能源的机会。

Indonesia is the largest archipelagic country and the second largest producer of seafood in the world. Yet Indonesia's coastal communities, which mostly consist of small-scale fishers, are home to nearly a third of the country's poorest. Small-scale fishers have lacked access to the technology and resources required to preserve their catch from their rural locations to the markets. This results in up to 35% of seafood pre-consumption lost. Thus, access to cold chain technology is vital to mitigate this problem.The project aims to design a sustainable cooling hub that can cover cooling services in small-scale fisheries. The hub will maximise the renewable energy potential through solar energy utilisation and energy storage.The project has the potential to deliver outcomes and impact energy access through the optimised design of a sustainable cooling hub. The optimal design will consider the technical, financial, and environmental performance, ensuring an efficient, affordable, and clean cooling solution. This will significantly improve energy access to households in most small-scale fishing villages.
