What is a solar refrigeration company?

A supplier or EPC that designs, delivers and commissions refrigeration systems powered wholly or partly by solar PV — typically with battery storage and a hybrid grid/diesel controller. Scope ranges from off-grid vaccine coolers to multi-megawatt cold storage plants.

How are solar refrigeration suppliers qualified?

Reference projects (min. 5 PV-hybrid cold storage installations), certifications (ISO 9001, IEC 61215/61730 for PV, IEC 62619 for BESS), refrigerant safety (NH₃ / CO₂ / low-GWP HFO), local service coverage and financial standing.

Do you match with EPC turnkey or equipment-only suppliers?

Both. You can procure equipment-only (refrigeration + PV + BESS + controls) from specialist manufacturers, or a single EPC covering civil works, insulated envelope, refrigeration, PV, BESS, commissioning and O&M.

Which countries and climates are covered?

40+ countries across MENA, Sub-Saharan Africa, Latin America, South and Southeast Asia, Southern Europe and Oceania. Sizing accounts for local irradiance (1,200–1,900 kWh/kWp/yr), grid reliability and diesel cost.

What sizes and applications?

From 20 m² village cold hubs (5–20 kW cooling / 20–80 kWp PV) to 20,000-pallet distribution centers (500–3,000 kW cooling / 2–8 MWp PV) with LFP battery storage sized for the required renewable fraction.
