Health Center Solar Electrification

Installation and maintenance of 10 kW solar systems powering health centers for the ICRC.

ICRC Bamenda, Cameroon Sep 1, 2021 — Mar 31, 2022
Overview

About the project

For the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), Evergreen installed 10 kW solar systems to electrify health centers in the Bamenda area — and we continue to maintain them. Reliable power in a health facility is not a convenience; it keeps cold chains running, lights theatres, and powers equipment that patients depend on. We designed and installed for resilience, and our ongoing maintenance keeps these systems performing as critical infrastructure.

Challenge, solution, outcome

Challenge

A health center cannot tolerate power gaps — the system has to carry critical loads reliably and keep running long after installation.

Solution

We sized a 10 kW system with storage against the facility's critical loads, installed for resilience, and put it on a preventive maintenance schedule so it stays dependable.

Outcome

Health centers in the Bamenda area running on reliable solar power, with Evergreen maintaining the systems as critical infrastructure.
