DeSiRABLE builds on a previous Energy Catalyst feasibility project "EVERESST DC" and continues the research and developmental work of its outcomes. DeSiRABLE seeks to explore and develop strategies for development, rapid and reliable deployment of stand-alone solar electricity driven technologies to provide power for a full range of milk chilling systems. Powering such agricultural loads in Sub-Saharan Africa enhances enterprises which are key to the economy of rural Africa. The chilling unit is an Anchor Base Load in a milk chilling centre (MCC) supplied with renewable electricity which forms the core of an “energy hub” providing energy access opportunities to support rural development, enhancing growth and eradicating poverty.

EVERESST DC promotes a DC Micro-Grid Platform (DCMGP) (or system) encompassing a unique product and business solution for organisations seeking to provide modern energy services into energy-poor regions. Our solution is not just hardware, it is a partnership approach to modern energy access that actively engages end users and stakeholders to encourage efficiency as a natural way of modern energy life.
