Energy on demand for Africa

I was writing earlier about the damage done by the hurricane Maria to Puerto Rico.
Another natural disaster hit Africa. Cyclone Idai flooded huge areas in Mozambique and Zimbabwe.

Thousands of injured, exhausted, traumatized people need shelter, food and medical attention.

Even with the aid available, one thing which is and will be holding any efforts for a long time is lack of infrastructure. Roads, bridges, power lines, pump stations are destroyed.

Danger of epidemic diseases is practically inevitable. Delivering food and medical supplies is possible almost exclusively by helicopter.

Field hospitals need power and hot water. Portable diesel generators are noisy, dirty but most importantly require constant re-supply of fuel. With roads destroyed this is a huge challenge, delay often cost lives.

What if there was a portable source of energy which would not require constant re-supply of fuel? There is no doubt that would be a huge relief. Shelters could get heating (or cooling when needed),  hospitals would get hot water, equipment get power. There is such source of energy - Autonomous Mobile Energy Station (AMES - watch video), developed by Ascent Systems Technologies.

AMES is a complete solution for uninterrupted clean energy on demand, combining advantages of the state of the art solar technology, smart energy storage and energy booster. The system configuration is optimized for providing thermal and electrical energy in real conditions. Adaptive control with real-time inputs from built-in sensors uses machine learning algorithm for the most efficient performance in a specific environment with a particular energy demand. The module fits into a small shipping container, can be delivered to any geographical location in the world, rapidly deployed and operate in a totally autonomous mode without requiring any fuel supply or connection to the power grid! Multiple modules can be combined into an array for increased capacity. Modules deployed in different geographical locations are connected via intelligent network for remote environment parameters and system performance monitoring. AMES is an ideal solution for remote areas, seasonal or temporary camps, military and disaster relief operations and for many regions in developing countries.
