Nzara Hospital solar power system is complete

22 Mar, 2016

The final result was a containerised portable power solution that delivers 100kWh of clean energy every day without the need for diesel generator.
With the generator as a backup and the ability to start when required the system will continue to provide the critical 24/7 power required even when there is an unexpected increase in load, or a bad week of sun exposure.
The result means refrigeration is able to run reliably, therefore blood and specialist medicine is available at the hospital at all times.This system has truly revolutionised this hospital by providing reliable power and will certainly serve the needs of this community long into the future.

The photos below provide a picture of how the project came together on site.
