Namowa's solar system continues to look (and work) great!

More solar lamps delivered to Namowa. Demand far exceeded the previous supply. More lamps mean more charging revenue for the village.

Responding to local demand, we deployed another 46 LED lanterns to Namowa. Residents use them at night to facilitate cooking, eating, and studying at home. They hold a charge for about 4 days, at which point recipients pay to have them recharged at the solar charger (pictured in the background). Money collected from recharging is set aside for future village projects.

Contractors installed this strong hybrid inverter. While the first phase of this project is complete, the community has requested the purchase of more LED bulbs. Community members use the bulbs for lighting at night and pay on a weekly basis to recharge them at the solar station. This generates recurring revenue for the community development fund.
