Sunlabob, Power to the Poor (VIDEO)
Edited on Tue Mar-09-10 10:39 PM by Fledermaus
In 2009 Sunlabob was awarded a World Bank financed procurement contract, handled locally by the Rural Electrification Office of the Department of Electricity (part of the Ministry of Energy and Mines), to supply 6,560 solar home systems (20W, 30W and 50W), including spares, to 14 provinces across Laos. With a country average of 5.9 people per household (2005 census), this programme will benefit over 30,000 people nationwide.
The video documents Sunlabob's work in this project and the great logistical challenges which had to be met.
