Impact · 2026 baseline

Impact you can measure in litres.

Every Tower Farm Chlora installs is a measurable swap: drip-irrigated soil farming replaced by closed-loop aeroponics powered by Aegean sun and wind. The numbers below are per tower, per year, benchmarked against equivalent Mediterranean field production.

Aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals

Chlora maps cleanly to five SDGs without greenwashing — each line below is an action, not a claim.

  • SDG 2
    Zero Hunger
    Year-round greens production on islands that import 90% of fresh food.
  • SDG 6
    Clean Water & Sanitation
    Closed-loop recirculation uses 5% of conventional irrigation water.
  • SDG 7
    Affordable & Clean Energy
    Low-draw pumps designed for off-grid solar; Tilos already runs on renewables.
  • SDG 12
    Responsible Consumption
    Local harvest, reusable trays, no plastic clamshells, no pesticide residue.
  • SDG 13
    Climate Action
    Eliminates diesel ferry food miles and drought-vulnerable field production.

How we measure

Baselines come from operational data across 30+ Mediterranean Tower Farm deployments, cross-checked against FAO field-crop averages for the same SKUs (lettuce, basil, herbs, leafy brassicas). Per-site numbers are audited annually and published in our Field Notes.
