The Sustainable Group Overview
The Sustainable Group is developing Village-in-a-Box (VIAB), a zero-carbon, circular self-sustained infrastructure for resilient and climate-ready cities. VIAB's core technology is a multidimensional decentralized grid that integrates decentralized renewable energy resources, water, food, waste, and wastewater systems on both physical and IIoT platforms to ensure sustainable and affordable infrastructure for communities globally. The company's products include grid design software designed to create blueprints for circular and carbon-negative infrastructure for new-build or retrofit communities. In addition, the company offers a physical infrastructure package in which all infrastructure is installed on-site and connected to software in the cloud, enabling new and retrofit neighborhoods to save on construction time. The Sustainable Group also offers grid management software, with all systems and operations performed and managed by its teams. Developers sell energy, water, waste treatment, and food to residents and the grid in order to save on battery and operational costs.

This Village in a Box Wants to Save the Planet - Goodnet
The Israeli Experiment, a project by The Sustainable Group, aims to build sustainable neighborhoods using new green technology. They have developed the Village in a Box, a shippable construction set to build carbon-negative communities with housing, energy, food, and water. The first pilot community, called Qayma, will be built in Israels Negev desert in partnership with the Arava Institute for Environmental Studies. The village will be powered by renewable energy, recycle water, and have its own waste-water treatment system. The project aims to create a strong community that can handle its own future and be a tourist attraction. The founders see this as a way to effect change on the societal and communal level. If successful, it could lead to sustainable community living and regional cooperation.
