It took our volunteers almost 9,000 km in the air, 35 km on the road and 9 km on the water to reach the village of Purubiakir\u00fa in Panama.

The solar equipment was purchased locally and transported by pirogue, the only way to reach the village.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

To minimize the impact on the village, the panels were installed at the top of the hill, in a field. The batteries, inverter, etc. were installed in a technical room, built in 2 days by the Embera Indians.
<\/p>

The village now has 4,400 Wp with two voltage levels, 110 and 230V, as well as internet access.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
