A 24-month pilot building an integrated corridor operating system — from a modular mobile abattoir and solar-powered cold storage to electric fleet dispatch — across 180 km and 8 nodes of the Kitimbwa–Kayunga–Mukono–Jinja corridor.

Between Uganda’s rural farms and its towns, food loses value at every stage — weak cold chain, unreliable transport, and patchy energy. The Cool Boda Corridor treats these as one problem: a single operating system that links solar-powered cold storage, electric mobility, and farmer demand along one route.
Chilled storage and a modular mobile abattoir, run on solar with battery backup — so produce keeps its value from farm to market.
A multi-modal electric fleet and an open battery-swap network move goods and riders across the corridor — clean, predictable, and shared.
The innovation is integration — one operating system that orchestrates energy, cold chain, and transport. Prove one corridor, then deploy many.
The full pilot brief — consortium, technical design, economics, and delivery plan — is shared on request. If you work in climate finance, cold-chain infrastructure, electric mobility, or rural development, we’d like to hear from you.
