In 2016 we pulled back the curtain with a 10-part series dedicated to the business of change and what it really takes to bring Energy Everywhere. From motorcycles to messes to magicians it was an honest look at the work our team does every day. Revisit the chapters from the Road To Impact Series:
Since BioLite’s inception we have sought to minimize our own resource consumption and create products that have a net benefit to humanity and to the planet; monitoring our carbon footprint is the first step in understanding whether we are achieving this goal. For more information on the methods and calculations presented, view our full 2015-2016 Environmental Sustainability Report.
Unlike many organizations that buy credits from a third party, BioLite produces its own carbon offsets from our clean cookstove work across India and sub-Saharan Africa. When a household uses a HomeStove, they reduce the amount of greenhouse gas emissions that would have come from their previous smoky open fire. This savings is independently verified by Gold Standard Foundation and every year we retire credits equivalent to our footprint to offset our carbon impact.
1:19For every ton of carbon BioLite produces as an organization, we offset 19 tonnes through the use of the HomeStove. Aside from offsetting our own footprint, these surplus credits can be sold to governments or other companies seeking their own sustainability solutions. Revenue generated from these sales get re-invested into our work in emerging markets, enabling us to reach even more households living in energy poverty.
When you see “future home” what comes to mind? Maybe flying cars, robot butlers, or even refrigerators that tell you when your milk is expired – here at BioLite we’ve got a different take on the Future Home: one that affects half the planet, where basic energy needs are met through an ecosystem of products that harness, store, and utilize energy on a personal scale.
In late 2016, BioLite took it’s next major step in fulfilling our vision of the Future Home with the launch of the SolarHome 620 (SHS), a portable solar light & power system that can transform an off-grid structure into a smart home instantly. Utilizing months of field research, SHS incorporates multi-room lighting with quality-of-life touches like radio and MP3 access.
