Prime Minister Brigadier (Ret’d), Mark Phillips on Friday commissioned two solar PV mini-grid systems at Karaburi and Haimacabra in Moruca, Region One. The Prime Minister expressed his happiness with the commissioning, due to the significance of the projects in enhancing the quality of life, and fostering sustainable development in the remote communities. In Karaburi, the newly-installed 19kW solar PV system, supported by 85kWh of battery storage, will power eight critical buildings in the village. This project follows the earlier distribution of 137 solar home systems to households in the community, which has already improved residents’ daily lives by providing clean and reliable energy. In Haimacabra, a 21.5kW solar PV system with 94kWh of battery storage is now powering seven key community buildings, including the teacher’s quarters, primary school, nursery, hot meals kitchen, and health centre. This project builds on the earlier distribution of 245 solar home systems to households in the village.
