Peru January Project
The Regional Office team is on the move again. This time to a different region in the Amazon to evaluate partners, potential projects and to do our first solar home system installs in the region. We’ve also graduated to our new ‘basic’ system – 25W solar panel and 26Ah battery with 4 LEDs that we’re excited to try out in Peru (a new type which has proved successful in other countries). We’ll take lots of pictures and check back in soon!
