In Colombia's Caribbean coast, over 150,000 food carts sustain traditional gastronomy, serving as a cultural symbol and economic driver for 200,000 families. These carts consume 3 liters of oil daily, often discharged into sewers, contributing to environmental waste. Ogilvy and Centelsa by Nexans developed a prototype vehicle that converts cooking oil into electricity, eliminating waste and reducing ecological impact. The innovation addresses the region's reliance on non-renewable resources while promoting sustainable practices, aligning with local needs and environmental goals.
