Seawater Greenhouse Ltd is the national winner of Shell Springboard 2018! Last Thursday, London-based Seawater Greenhouse received a total of £150,000 at the Shell Enterprise Development Awards to support the growth and commercialisation of its ‘cool house’ technology. The technology works by evaporating sea water to create a cool and humid microclimate to grow crops in arid coastal environments around the world. Charlie Paton, Director of Seawater Greenhouse, said: “We are thrilled to be selected as the Shell Springboard winner! It is a huge achievement and a key milestone in Seawater Greenhouse’s development. The £150,000 prize is fantastic and will allow us to take the next steps in developing our business. Being involved in the Shell Springboard programme has been an amazing experience – each stage has been challenging and really helped us refine our business idea. We would like to thank the judges for selecting us.” Find out more about this innovative low-carbon business: https://go.shell.com/2IezD8H
