Remote solar energy deployment

O'Sol wrote: O'sol develops deployable solar generators for mobile, temporary or emergency applications. Its alpha generator uses a deployment system inspired from satellites, which allows it to deploy and retract its solar panels without any human interaction. This makes it autonomous, and thus very simple to use. Alpha comes equipped with batteries, and can be interconnected to create a smart microgrid. The alpha generator is especially adapted for festivals and temporary events. A second generator is being developed for humanitarian applications... Source: EIT Climate KIC's ClimateLaunchPad

Forage legumes for monogastric performance

Massaï wrote: Human demography in combination with evolution of average standard of living increase strongly the demand for animal protein and thus of even more dramatically for plant protein. Several problems arise both at the level of the farms and at the level of the nations but also for climate, particularly in the highly soybean dependant eu. . Massaï meets this challenge with innovative agricultural machines. It promotes cultivated well known plants that are far more efficient than soybean to produce large amounts of well balanced proteins. It brings the biofractionation industry into the field and thus increases significally the crop value. It preserves and even enhances the feed quality of the harvested crop during storage. ...
