Colombia. Eleven educational institutions in the department of Antioquia, which are located in villages that are difficult to access, will have a supply of solar energy thanks to the initiative of the University of Antioquia, Epm, the companies Andercol and Sumicol and Ruta N.
This solar panel project will benefit 1,100 students from municipalities in the department: Bello, Caucasia and Carepa.
This Alliance University, Business, State has resources from the Science, Technology and Innovation Fund of the General Royalty System
"This program seeks that educational institutions that do not have access to energy service, can have it through photovoltaic cells and in this way ensures not only that some appliances work correctly but also material for the academic team," he said. Jorge Londoño De la Cuesta, manager of Epm.
The panels have technology that allows long-distance monitoring in order to determine maintenance patterns and wear by factors such as weather.
