Solar Fridge Invented by British Student
21 year old British student Emily Cummins has designed a simple and portable solar-powered refrigerator. Based upon the principle of evaporation it requires no electricity and can be made from commonly available materials like cardboard, sand, and recycled metal.
here is how it works
Some say it is not her original idea since Mohammed Bah Abba won a Rolex Award several years ago for his development of the very same idea. The only difference in the design is that the he used two clay jars with a gap in between them rather than metal. It works on the same principles, so it is a bit difficult to describe it as an invention.
So what if the idea is not original. She took a year off to actually go to Africa to help people. Hat’s off to her for her drive to help developing countries. All the best Emily!
