Sunstore Technologies Ltd has invented and patented a new solar hybrid cooking and electricity generation unit; the Sunstorepowerpan XLM.The unit is designed to cook all food types, and can produce up to 2000 portions of rice (or equivalent) in any 24 hour period, using either a 30 or 60 litre cooking pan. It comes with an insulated solar pre-heat serving counter that can keep the food piping hot for up to 8 hours, so it is possible to serve a hot breakfast to around 500 people as well as produce 100 portions every hour. This makes it ideal for situations where large volumes are required eg community feeding stations, emergency relief set-ups or refugee camps, as well as schools where meals are often served to incentivise attendance.The unit can simultaneously generate up to 200 Watts of electricity to charge eg phones or computers during the day, or to provide illumination at night. This is done by burning smokeless bio-char in an enclosed and protected fire tray. 200Watts is significantly more electricity than is produced by the equivalent photo-voltaic panel array at less than half the capital cost.By means of a water tower, the unit can solar track, allowing it to be left unattended for several hours at a time. This water tower can also filter over 300 litres per day to provide safe drinking water.The unit is attempting to improve the quality of life for the 3.5 billion people currently reliant on biomass for their daily cooking needs, while reducing air pollution, deforestation and the associated species loss. It can provide electricity to the 1.2 billion currently off-grid. It can also improve human productivity by freeing up those currently spending up to 4 hours per day collecting wood.If deployed across Africa and Asia in large numbers, it will reduce global CO2 emissions (savings of up to 40 tonnes per unit are possible depending on what type of fuel is being displaced) while alleviating food poverty and allowing off-grid communities free access to electricity and IT connectivity.Sunstore Technologies in partnership with Defy ZA, is attempting to provide ecological nutrition and power to off-grid communities; feeding the people while protecting the planet. This patented technology is both disruptive and transformative and can, if widely deployed, alleviate food and fuel poverty across the world while reducing greenhouse gas emissions.Our mission is to: Disrupt-Transfom-Diversify-Empower- Sustain

Sunstore科技有限公司发明了一种新的太阳能混合烹饪和发电装置，并获得了专利；Sunstorepowerpan XLM。该设备设计用于烹饪所有类型的食物，并且可以在任何24小时内使用30或60升的烹饪锅生产多达2000份大米（或同等量）。它配备了一个隔热的太阳能预热柜台，可以让食物保持8小时的高温，所以它可以为大约500人提供一份热早餐，每小时生产100份。这使得它非常适合需要大量食品的情况，例如社区食品站、紧急救济机构或难民营，以及经常提供膳食以激励出勤率的学校。该装置可以同时产生高达200瓦的电力，在白天为手机或电脑充电，或在晚上提供照明。这是通过在封闭和保护的火盘中燃烧无烟生物炭来完成的。200瓦的电力比同等的光伏电池板阵列产生的电力多得多，而成本不到其一半。通过水塔，该装置可以进行太阳能跟踪，使其一次可以无人看管几个小时。这个水塔每天可以过滤超过300升的水，提供安全的饮用水。该单位正试图改善目前依赖生物质满足日常烹饪需求的35亿人的生活质量，同时减少空气污染、森林砍伐和相关的物种损失。它可以为目前离网的12亿人提供电力。它还可以通过解放那些目前每天花费高达4小时收集木材的人来提高人类的生产力。如果在非洲和亚洲大量部署，它将减少全球二氧化碳排放（每单位可节省多达40吨，具体取决于所取代的燃料类型），同时缓解粮食贫困，并使离网社区免费获得电力和it连接。Sunstore Technologies与Defy ZA合作，试图为离网社区提供生态营养和电力；养活人民的同时保护地球。这项专利技术具有颠覆性和变革性，如果得到广泛应用，可以缓解世界各地的粮食和燃料贫困，同时减少温室气体排放。我们的使命是：颠覆-转型-多元化-赋权-持续
