Donations during 2018 Solar power initiative
Al Suwadi Power Company SAOG in joint and active cooperation with SMN Power Holding Company SAOG, Al Batinah Power Company SAOG and Al Kamil Power Company SAOG successfully installed and commissioned PV solar system at Hind Bint Usaid Al Ansariya School of Ministry of Education at Barka.
This solar PV project was realized in the framework of our corporate social responsibility programs and had 3 main objectives:
- To provide clean, renewable energy, free of charge to this school;
- To create awareness for clean, renewable energy under the students and to teach them how solar energy works
- To develop young, Omani SME’s in the important sector of renewable energy production for the Sultanate.
We can proudly feel that these 3 objectives have been achieved. The solar PV system will generate more than 129 MWh per year, powering the school with a total installed capacity of 82 kWp, covering nearly 500m² of roof, making it a sustainable and green solution for power requirement of the school. The school has received solar training kits to educate all students about solar PV energy.
The share of the total project cost contributed by us amounted to RO 15,000.
