Kimberley: heat, power and cold chains
Kimberley grew around the diamond diggings, and today it is a dry, very hot inland city where summer afternoons regularly test every fridge in town. Houses in Galeshewe, Roodepan and Hadison Park often have fridges in hot kitchens or under corrugated roofs, where condensers struggle and compressors overheat. Butcheries, supermarkets and takeaways along the main roads, and the hospital and government offices, add commercial demand. Cattle and game farms toward Barkly West and Ritchie keep freezer rooms for meat. Dust from the dry veld and mine dumps clogs condenser coils, and winter nights are cold. Households, shop owners, farmers and public facilities ask most.
