Solar Power for Seeta Village

A recent project in Misindye, a village near Seeta, brings solar power to the homes and businesses of the village. The project brought in 5 small solar power stations, enough to run 35 households and 2 commercial refrigerators. Solar is ideal for areas like Misindye where the homes are stand-alone units because extending the grid would be unfeasible or very expensive. There are definitely challenges for this growth, but this installation shows that it can be done!

In some ways, Uganda’s slow growth has been negative. But, in other ways, like this one, it is positive. When America was growing, the best ways to get electricity were also the most unhealthy for the environment. Now, as Uganda grows and needs electricity, the technology of solar is available, giving Uganda an opportunity to grow in a clean and healthy way.

Pray with me that Uganda’s growth remains healthy and clean and that Uganda can learn from America, China, Japan, and other countries and take advantage of better technology available today.
