Partners with Sun

In the last decade alone, 1.7 billion people have faced climate-related disasters, a staggering figure that highlights the increasingly direct link between climate change and food insecurity. These climate-induced crises - ranging from prolonged droughts and floods to cyclones and wildfires - disrupt local economies, destroy agricultural infrastructure and decimate food supplies.

Technology is needed to strengthen food value chains and make it more adaptive to disruptions caused by climate change to provide uninterrupted aid to the most in need.

Partners with Sun (PwS) offers disruptive clean energy solutions. The PwS solar convection oven replaces fuel-dependent conventional ovens with a sustainable, off-grid oven powered by solar energy and integrated with hydrogen backup technology. It reduces operational costs by cutting fossil fuel dependency while maintaining high efficiency and productivity. This solution empowers bakeries with affordable, clean energy, fostering long-term environmental and economic benefits. The solar oven enables the uninterrupted provision of food in remote areas and uses sustainable clean energy, representing an innovative option for the food value chain actors towards adaptation to climate, social and economic shocks.

PwS aims to implement their patented innovation with bakeries in Lebanon. For every 10 ovens installed, the venture has the potential to provide affordable meals to 10,000 families daily, create 100 new jobs and prevent 200 tons of CO2 emissions.
