This video showcases 5 successful shipping container conversions that maximizes the use of the container, makes minimal conversions and utilizes the material cleverly
0:09 First, shipping container vertical farms by Kimbal Musk (Elon Musk’s brother) Square Roots is an urban farming company in Brooklyn, New York. Inside, plants grow vertically without soil, and get their nutrition from water and light energy from powerful LEDs. He wasn’t the first to convert a shipping container for this purpose. Brad McNamara and Jon Friedman started their company Freight Farms in 2013 and were one of the first to coin the term “ag tech” for agriculture technology. They created a hydroponic shipping container farm called the Greenery in Boston, Massachusetts.
2:57 Second, bitcoin mining shipping containers. A company based in Latvia, called Power Mining, is converting standard 20 foot containers into crypto currency mining hubs that can hold 165 miners. Black Pearl Resources in Alberta Canada is another company creating bitcoin mining hubs. . The reason is that whenever they pull oil from the ground, they also extract natural gas which presents a problem. It’s not economically viable to ship the natural gas to other companies to refine it because they are in such a remote location, and they cannot release all that natural gas into the atmosphere since they have to comply with strict environmental regulations. So, they capture this excess fuel, link it up to gas-electric generators, convert it into electricity on site and then use that electricity to power bitcoin mining shipping containers.
5:29 Third, fire training facility and burn building for fire fighters. A series of containers are linked together to create a maze with doors and hallways. Wood pallets are set on fire inside allowing fire fighters to practice a variety of realistic scenarios. These container conversions puts fire fighters in an environment that they can control, that they can predict, and that can be recreated over and over again which helps them be more proficient at their job. It also allows them to learn the science of how fire behaves, develops and spreads
