This Fridge Doesn’t Need Electricity To Stay Cool

Thursday, May 1, 2014

A major problem is keeping vaccines cold in areas with no electricity. We’ve covered a few “cold-chain solutions” at this site, including this Gates Foundation-backed “super-thermos,” which keeps vaccines cool even in hot climates. The Sure Chill fridge is something similar, though perhaps even more useful. It’s a full appliance, and it stays cold even when the power goes out or where there’s no power at all.
