Technology protecting life — phase change heating aids Tibet quake relief

On January 8, 2025, a devastating earthquake struck Dingri County, Tibet Autonomous Region. The following day, Passive Edge responded to Zhiyuan Public Welfare’s relief call, providing high-performance thermal-energy-storage phase change materials tailored to the region’s extreme heating needs — working alongside the Tibet Science and Technology Department and the Beijing Cifu Charity Foundation.

Precisely addressing critical needs

At an altitude of 4,300 meters, Dingri County experiences nighttime temperatures down to −20°C. Our phase change temperature-control solution offers four key advantages:

Verified performance

Indoor temperature held stable at 26°C while the outdoor temperature dropped to −13°C.

On January 9, the first technical team arrived on-site for needs assessment.
