Abstract
This review paper discusses various aspects of solar-powered cold storage with thermal energy storage backup. The paper provides insights into the development and designing of solar-hybrid cold storage systems for on-farm preservation of perishables. It covers the guidelines for testing set up and testing procedures for solar cold storage with thermal storage backup, specifications and requirements for the solar cold storage with thermal energy storage backup, and the technical designing of stand-alone solar photovoltaic and solar thermal driven cold storage unit with thermal storage system. The paper also presents economic analysis and feasibility, IRR, NPV, and Payback for different possible business models. Additionally, the paper covers the use of a solar-powered battery-free refrigerator with a cold thermal bank, the design and thermal analysis of a solar-powered cold storage warehouse using a phase-change material, and the design and test of an affordable cold room powered by solar. The study also evaluates the intervention to install solar-powered cold storage in northeast Nigeria, provides evidence from the evaluation of recent interventions in northeast Nigeria, and highlights the barriers impeding the deployment of solar-powered cold storage technologies for post-harvest tomato losses reduction. Finally, the paper presents the performance analysis of a household refrigerator integrating a PCM heat exchanger.
