Compost some dirt, and watch; the stony sand turn
into soil
Plant a seed, and watch; a three in the desert
grows
Walk with respect, and watch; your footprints
cast a green shadow
Join a circle of people humming, and watch;
a simple song turns into a strong voice:
You are the change!

For Sekem, solar power will play a major part in a sustainable
energy supply!
The
SEKEM Solar Project focuses on technologies with a high percentage
of local added value.
The main focus is on domestic solar water heaters and process heat for
small industries.
For the latter we set up two16m2 “Scheffler reflectors” which concentrate the sunlight on a small focal point. Currently these mirrors pre-heat the water used for the steam production of the SEKEM food processing companies.
The mirrors are produced locally in cooperation with the SEKEM Vocational Training Center. Also all material is purchased in Egypt. Thus, this project has several advantages.
• We train students in applied renewable energy projects
• We create employment in rural Egypt.
• We support our local suppliers.
• We provide clean, safe and renewable energy.
Support our efforts in developing new and sustainable energy solutions.
