How Clenergy mounting systems transformed education in Fiji

Thanks to continuous support and dedication to remote island projects by Clenergy and other companies, a generation of children and teachers in the Pacific are now able to gain access to modern education with carbon-free electricity. So far in Fiji, an island country with limited power supply, 20 schools have been installed with solar systems and more than 250 schools are expected to receive installations in the future.

Thanks to continuous support and dedication to remote island projects by Clenergy and other companies, a generation of children and teachers in the Pacific are now able to gain access to modern education with carbon-free electricity. So far in Fiji, an island country with limited power supply, 20 schools have been installed with solar systems and more than 250 schools are expected to receive installations in the future.

Last year, three new projects totaling 11, 360 W were installed in the Rabi, Tabiang, and Ucunivatu primary schools with the support of Clenergy, while this year we will see substantial progress made at Ratu Meli Primary and Yasawa North High schools. We take a great deal of pride in the accomplishments that these schools have gained.

The solar power generating systems installed in schools enable non-stop delivery of power, leading to less dependence on fuel generators and a reduction in carbon dioxide emissions whilst also allowing for the contribution of more resources to the educational sector. Various actions have been taken by the schools in return, such as a commitment to the collection of daily battery charge data, monthly collections of plastics along remote beaches and participation in educational activities related to renewable energy.

Apart from its adherence to the ideology of innovation, quality and service, Clenergy has also embraced social responsibility. Clenergy has been supporting the Its Time Foundation as a premium equipment sponsor since 2010 by donating solar power generating systems to island schools, endeavoring to assist them in the transformation from using polluting and unreliable energy sources, such as diesel fuels, into using more eco-friendly, reliable and cost-effective solar power.

In light of the harsh environmental conditions of the remote Pacific island schools, Clenergy provides high-quality PV-ezRack solar mounting systems that are characterized by wind-resistance, anti-corrosion and long service life, ranging from the Clenergy ST III and ST II ground mounting systems to roof mounting systems. By means of connection to additional mounting components and easy application of more panels, Clenergy’s ground mounting systems enable simple expansion of solar arrays whilst addressing the issue of attaching arrays to old roof structures. This ensures that these systems can withstand and accommodate severe island conditions.

The Its Time Foundation is one of the numerous organizations Clenergy has been sponsoring. Clenergy will continue its commitment to the Its Time Foundation and strive to deliver more renewable and sustainable energy systems across the globe.

We would also like to take this opportunity to encourage others to participate in remote island projects. Through concerted effort, we can make a great difference by delivering numerous benefits to generations of children and teachers and can significantly transform education throughout the Pacific and beyond, to make the world a clean, green and safe place to live in for decades to come.
