My name is Dion Deva
Co- founder of “TE PEMA” project
Our projects goal is providing green spaces
Throughout the project we realized that efficiency comes as the sum of Ecology and Technology
Not by accident we started with the saying “It’s not always the best to be the first “.
Taking into account that Pristina (capital city of Kosovo) during the recent years where the air quality measured it
We decided not to stand by but take a shot against the problem
Our first goal is raising awareness about air pollution and air quality
What we accomplished is a product which helps solve the problem
As you can see, this is the product.
And the accomplishment exceeded even our own expectations.
The product is named TE PEMA T
TE PEMA T (T=Technology, E=Ecology, Pema=Tree)
letter T because of its shape if viewed upside down.
One of TE PEMA T Product has 250 integrated plants
where they absorb at minimum 120T carbon dioxide per year
by a product
its effect is equal to 70 Tropical Trees
So, 70 Trees is the unit of measurement we used.
Taking into consideration urban cities
in particular Pristina as a capital city
we save space around 80 times
Basically, 70 trees stationed in 2 meters height
After completion the price came to be 5 times cheaper than that of the competition
With this kind of product, we are the first on the Balkan region and the second worldwide
The first being a German company.
Working principle
In fact, all of the work is done by the product itself
Oxygen production and air filtering through the plants
Plants are vertically housed, parallel to one another
which allows proper airflow and increases product capacity.
On the upper part is a water collector which collects precipitation
filters it and transfers the water to the main reservoir
Connected to the reservoir is a pump activated by our micro controller
which takes the collected water and waters plants
Also it has manual way to fill the tank
The prototype offers recreational space and includes 4 stoles, 2 tables, lights for nighttime
the plants release a pleasant smell which can be noticed once one is close enough
The idea is not to stop here
Why would we stop here?
The prototype is currently in “Zahir Pajaziti “ Main Square as a gift to the municipality of Pristina
It was presented on all local Media, in DocuTech Technology Fair, Green Festival, Innovation Centre Kosovo, UNICEF Innovations LAB
Also nominated from a foreign organization named Energy Globe (Award) in two categories
Nationally – For Fighting air pollution in Pristina
Internationally – in the category of Air
It is the biggest project implemented by Upshift in Kosovo
Chosen as the 2018 innovation on Green Festival
And one of the winners of bootcamp ICK
Municipality of Pristina is currently interested
on building 9 more TE PEMA T Units and 1 TE PEMA TXL unit to be placed around the city.
All of this would not have been possible without voluntary work
We thank UNICEF, Municipality of Pristina, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering(UP) and ICK
Our next target is creating a product with higher capacity and efficiency, equal to 170 trees
How are we going to achieve this?
Firstly, by duplicating dimensions, by adding Moss inside the product
using solar energy for power and using sensors to monitor plants state and fully complete the autonomy of the product.
These are my colleagues with which we made this possible. Genti Morina and Blondin Batusha
