Inauguration of two model projects in the fields of renewable energy and sustainable agriculture

On Tuesday 17 June 2025, Mr. Kamel Baddari, the Minister of Higher Education and Scientific Research, was joined by officials from the Ministry of Agriculture, Rural Development and Fisheries, for the inauguration of two model projects in the fields of renewable energy and sustainable agriculture, at the Technical Institute for Animal Breeding (ITELV).

These two projects are part of the National Research Program (PNR), in partnership with the Solar Equipment Development Unit (UDES), which operates under the Center for Renewable Energy Development (CDER).

The first project involves around the creation of a hydroponic growing room that is powered entirely by solar energy. This comprehensive solution enables the production of green fodder in challenging climatic conditions.  This system enables the daily production of up to 126 kg of green fodder through the cultivation of 18 trays of barley in climate-controlled environment with regulated heat, humidity and lighting. Advanced systems for ventilation and water filtration systems are also employed. With its small footprint and vertical design, this innovation a practical and efficient alternative for producing fodder, directly contributing to the improvement of food security and reducing costs.

The second project concerns the development of a solar evaporative cooling system designed for poultry farm buildings. Combining direct and indirect cooling, it significantly reduces temperatures by up to 16 degrees Celsius. This system is considered a sustainable solution that enhances the quality of farming conditions, and reduces poultry mortality during the summer, positively impacting productivity and agricultural income. This is particularly important in light of the rising traditional energy costs and the increasing effects of climate change.
