9th CONSOLFOOD Webinar: "Solar Baking: NeoLoco Solar Bakery (France)"
Monday, 3rd April 2023
Arnaud Crétot is a French engineer and artisan. He started in France (Normandy) the first European solar bakery, and solar roasting activity, named NeoLoco in end 2019. NeoLoco employs now 3 full time people, received more than 100 artisans from France and abroad for training, which have already started 10 other solar artisan activities in France replicating NeoLoco's organization. They all use Lytefire ovens. Arnaud is also involved at Solar Fire Concentration, a Finish company that develops Lytefire technology, as CEO and co-founder since 2014. The webinar is a synthesis of a key part of the forthcoming book ("La Boulangerie Solaire", éditions Terre Vivante) written by Arnaud. A suitable technology should be adopted when running an economic activity with intermittent energy source, but the business organisation to fit energy availability is a breaking point.
The lecture will be in English.
