This represents a significant contribution to areas such as the Emergency Room.<\/p>\n<p>According to Reinier Hern\u00e1ndez, the company\u2019s Investment Director, specialists and technicians from Copextel, the Basic Business Unit for Generator Sets and Electrical Services, the Construction sector, the Sasha Non-Agricultural Cooperative, and EE itself, among others, are supporting the installation of the kits, drawing on their experience with photovoltaic solar parks.<\/p>\n<p>Among the centers benefiting in this region, the Abel Santamar\u00eda school for visually impaired children in this town stands out, along with other healthcare facilities located in remote areas.<\/p>\n<p>According to the official, the intention is also to complete the installation of photovoltaic systems in some 300 isolated homes across all municipalities of Sancti Sp\u00edritus. This represents an important step in Cuba\u2019s efforts to confront the oil embargo imposed by the United States government, which significantly impacts electricity generation.<\/p>\n<p>As part of a program that, amidst a particularly difficult context, seeks to increase the use of renewable energy sources, more than 300 workers in the province\u2019s health and education sectors received portable power station modules powered by solar panels. They were able to acquire these through bank loans, cash, or transfers.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, thanks to a donation from tobacco farmers in the town of Cabaigu\u00e1n, the home for children and adolescents without parental care in that area now has a six-kW solar kit.<\/p>\n<p>IMAGE CREDIT: Yainerys \u00c1vila Santos \/ Photo: Facebook Empresa El\u00e9ctrica Sancti Sp\u00edritus<\/p>\n<p>[ SOURCE: AGENCIA CUBANA DE NOTICIAS ]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Guantanamo.- With the participation of state entities and new economic actors, the installation of 115 two-kilowatt (kW) photovoltaic solar systems is progressing in the province of Sancti Sp\u00edritus at vital centers such as polyclinics, maternity and nursing homes, funeral homes, and branches of banks and the Electric Company (EE).
