• News 21 February 2020 Clean cooking technology for refugees developed with DTU Skylab and UNHCR A new innovative clean cooking technology, creating heat from a salt-based thermochemical battery, charged by solar power, has been developed at DTU, and UNEP Copenhagen Climate Centre is part of making sure it gets to those in greatest need. In 2019, ServedOnSalt approached UNEP Copenhagen Climate Centre for inputs to their business idea of storing solar-generated heat in salt-based sustainable stoves. In collaboration, ServedOnSalt and UNEP DTU Partnership won a £26,000 grant from the UK…
• Publication 24 January 2020 Surmonter les barrières au transfert et à la diffusion des technologies climatiques Overcoming barriers to the transfer and dissemination of climate technology This guidebook provides practical and operational guidance on how to assess and overcome barriers facing the transfer and diffusion of technologies for climate change mitigation and adaptation. The guidebook is designed to support the analysis of specific technologies, rather than pursuing a sectoral (e.g. transport) or technology group (e.g. renewable energy) approach. Given that there is no single solution to…
