Kyocera to Supply Solar Power Generating Systems in Tunisia
Posted on: Wednesday, 13 February 2008, 06:00 CST
Kyocera Corporation has announced that it will supply and install its solar power generating systems in the Republic of Tunisia under a yen-loan project by the Japanese government through Itochu Corporation.
The company said that this will be the first case in which yen loans will be applied to the delivery and installation of photovoltaic power systems. Yen loans are a form of official development assistance provided by the Japanese government.
Starting in April 2008, Kyocera will install its solar power generating systems in 500 households in villages that do not currently have electricity in the three Tunisian governorates of Kef, Siliana and Beja.
These systems will charge storage batteries using power generated during daylight hours and make the power available for residential lighting and other needs at night. Anticipated benefits include new freedom to engage in night-time studies and side jobs, improved quality of life and enhanced growth and development for the villages.
