Need
We need to have a temporary storage area for produce, so that harvest time is not so closely tied to market times.
Description
Envisioned is a simple straw bale structure of 10 square metres or less with an insulated floor, using some sort of solar-powered cooling, perhaps swamp cooling supplemented by absorption refrigeration.
Status
- 2012-07-20 project proposed.
Goal or deliverable
A small super-insulated building in the west field that is solar cooled to about 10°C.
Timeline, schedule, or end date
time-related aspects of the project, which may include intermediate deadlines, dependencies, etc
Plan
generally, a numbered list of tasks, performed in order, that will together accomplish the project's goals or deliverables
- Seek funding from various sources.
- Building design and site layout.
- Prepare the foundation.
- Obtain straw bales.
- Assemble structure.
- Install Viesa swamp cooler.
- Install one or more camping refrigerators, temporarily powered by solar panels or even hydro.
- Design passive solar heat loop to power the camping refrigerators.
- Install passive solar heat loop.
Financial budget
how much money will be needed, possibly high-low bracketed and detailed, or a complete guess (try to indicate how firm a guess it is!)
This project requires funding. Agreeing to this request does not commit EcoReality to any funding. Balance sheet impact should be zero, as increased liability from shares issued will be balanced by the value added by the facility.
Cash outlay
| Item | Cost | Note |
| Construction materials | $1,000 | . |
| Solar panels | $800 | . |
| Swamp cooler | $1,200 | on-hand |
| Two large camper refrigerators | $1,100 | can be difficult to find used at a reasonable price |
| Total | $4,100 | . |
Confidence factor: ±50% largely due to wide variation in cost of used camping refrigerators
- Up to 6,150 Class A Investment Shares issued for capital cash costs.
- 1,500 Class A Investment Shares to Jan for brand new Viesa swamp cooler, on-hand.
Labor budget
how many people are needed for how long, including specific people or specific skill-sets
- 32 hours: Jan: research, engineering, and design
- 400 hours: Jan and others: construction and installation
Confidence factor: ±50%
- Up to 9,720 Class B Investment Shares issued for 648 hours of labour
