[[File:Solar_Energy_Enterprises_Comany_rooftop_kitchen_at_Family_Bank,_12-13-16.png|thumb|300px|Officials of the Sudanese Family Bank are convinced to support a [[microfinance]] program, in cooperation with [[Solar Energy Enterprises Company]], with a three day solar 'cook-in' on the rooftop of bank headquarters.]] *{{NewDec16}}'''December 2016: Sudanese bank supports solar cooking initiative''' - The [[Solar Energy Enterprises Company]] under the direction of [[Salih Hamadto]], has convinced the Sudanese Family Bank to participate in financing solar cookers through their [[microfinance]] program, which is well established in Sudan. After initial interest, Salih established a temporary solar cooking kitchen on the rooftop of bank headquarters in Khartoum, [[Sudan]]. With three [[parabolic]] and four [[box]] solar cookers, they prepared meals for staff and visitors over a three day period. A business plan was established incorporating cost, logistical matters, advocacy, maintenance, and training of new trainers.

The use of rugged construction materials is intended to ensure a long service life for the cooker. [[File:SEEC-_parabolic_cooker,_S._Hamadto,_5-4-16.png|thumb|300px|Student at [[SEEC]] training facility - ''Photo: [[Salih Hamadto]]'']] *{{NewMay16}}'''May 2016:''' [[Salih Hamadto]], Director of the Solar Energy Enterprises Co. (SEEC), presents a summary of the training they provide to students of sustainable technologies, developed for both household and [[institutional]] scale projects. Solar cooking is very much part of the program incorporating [[parabolic]] and [[box cooker]]s. '''Read his report:''' [[Media:Solar_Energy_Enterprises_Sudan_2010.pdf|(SEEC) Industrial Development of Solar Cookers in Sudan]] - ''[[Salih Hamadto]]'' [[File:Salih_Hamadto_April_2016.jpg|300px|thumb|''Photo: [[Salih Hamadto]]'']] *{{NewApr16}}'''April 2016:''' [[Salih Hamadto]] writes: "Solar Cooking on Earth Day - We show some recent public lunches. They were meant to promote solar cooking, especially in the eyes of aid workers and government officials. The first post depicts photos of a public lunch thrown a few months ago during the celebration of the 50th anniversary of [[Practical Action]], an NGO that has operated in [[Sudan]] for over 40 years. The main theme was “Technology Justice”: The Global Right to Access Sustainable Technologies. Following a talk I gave, and the very comprehensive solar lunch, it was universally agreed that solar cooking is an overlooked opportunity for technology justice in Sudan and Sub-Saharan Africa. A dialogue was started to deal with this. The celebration was under the patronage of Dr Tahani Abdalla Attia, Minister of Communications and Information Technology." *{{NewApr16}}'''April 2016:''' Solar Energy Enterprises Company has developed an industrial grade [[solar dryer]] that can dry one ton of fresh food per day. "It consists of a 24 square meters flat-plate collector, a centrifugal blow fan and a drying tunnel that accommodates trolleys carrying shelves onto which the product is placed." [[File:Solar_energy_enterprises_company_04-16_1.jpg|thumb|300px|right|Five solar dryers being used at the pilot facility. Photo credit: Salih Hamadto’s Solar Reflections Facebook]] *{{NewApr16}}'''March 2016:''' Solar Energy Enterprises Company started a pilot program at a new solar food drying facility. They provided five solar food dryers to the new facility, located near Rashad, Sudan, and established areas for preparation, fresh produce packing, and drying. The solar food dryers were found to have the capability of drying six tons of fresh produce per week. *'''October 2011:''' SEEC reports they have introduced solar cooking to over 1000 people since they began teaching in 1985. *'''May 2010:''' [[Solar Energy Enterprises Company]] sponsored a solar lunch in Khartoum with a public demonstration. Lunch was served to 200 people.
