Swiss Contribution
The ZHAW has extensive expertise in the field of heat storage and has been operating a solar-heated greenhouse with the ability to store and release heat for many years. This know-how shall be transferred to Mongolia in Partnership with ONTS Solutions and its wide network of greenhouse growers in the Mongolian Agricultural sector.
Description
Prolonging the growth season in greenhouses by heating would increase the annual income of the greenhouse farmers. The HEAT MONGOLIA project targets this need by implementing, evaluating and promoting low tech solar heated greenhouses with thermal storage and exchange of thermal heat in the ground in Mongolia, together with the participation with a Mongolian greenhouse owner and grower.
