Innovative Solar Thermal Energy for Agro-Processing

该项目将研究利用创新太阳能热技术在肯尼亚主要农业加工业以及在较小程度上在更广泛的东非区域的潜力。该研究将侧重于农业食品部门的几个重要部分；即茶叶（肯尼亚是全球最大的茶叶出口国）、芒果和辣木——目的是展示该技术如何推动可持续性的改善、减少收获后的损失和增加农民的收入。

The project will examine the potential for using innovative solar thermal technology to be utilised in key agri-processing industries in Kenya and to a lesser extent, the wider East Africa Region. The study will focus on several important segments of the agri-food sector; namely tea (Kenya is the largest exporter of tea globally), Mango and Moringa - with the aim of demonstrating how the technology can drive improvements in sustainability, reduce post-harvest losses and increase revenues for farmers.
