A new solar system has been installed at St. Theresa Mission Hospital Nzara, Western Equatoria State, South Sudan to provide sufficient power in the hospital with 300 solar panels, 120Kw of solar, 120KWH Lithium battery and 110KVa generator.
According to co-owner of model electrical from Austria Mr. Simon Dingemanse the solar system will supply power for a maximum of ten years.
Mr. Simon the solar installation technician who has visited St. Theresa Mission Hospital for the second time on the purpose of installing a solar system to guarantee adequate power to run the Hospital said, “the Solar system will guarantee enough power in the Hospital for a maximum of more than ten years if managed well. The last installation had run efficiently for seven years and because the Hospital is very big that it is now running low”.
Mr. Simon urged the Hospital management to make better use of the power to run the laboratory and supply power for inpatients. He said they also have installed internet to enable them to monitor the system all the way from Australia.
St. Theresa Mission Hospital under the Catholic Diocese of Tambura Yambio has numerous departments that need power supply such as maternity ward, surgical ward, and blood bank, among many others.
Bishop Eduardo on his part noted that the Diocese remains extremely grateful to the friends of St. Theresa in Australia for passing the skills and knowledge to the young people within Western Equatoria and above all for the continual sustainable support for St. Theresa.
The prelate also acknowledged the support Australians are giving to their people who are refugees in Australia thanking them for not forgetting where they are coming from.
He also thanked Dr. Daniel Dolly for stepping forward in his activities to get this project realized by bringing engineers and scientists in Western Equatoria despite the bad stories that surround South Sudan.
He further urged the people of South Sudan to build good relationship, to do the same to their brothers and sisters around the world, “be generous, what you have share with those in need”.
