Installation of three interconnected photovoltaic systems to power three hospitals
Jamaica, the largest English-speaking island in the Caribbean, has seen significant improvements in its infrastructure over the past decade. The Jamaican government, with the support of the Global Environment Facility and the UNDP, has launched a program to develop renewable energies and improve the energy efficiency of public infrastructures and hospitals.
Enviroearth was selected to contribute to this project by installing solar systems in three hospitals: the May Pen Hospital, the National Chest Hospital in Kingston and the Sir John Golding Rehabilitation Centre.
These self-consumption solar installations have significantly reduced electricity consumption from the grid, and are maintained by Enviroearth.
Enviroearth's mission was to supply and install dedicated solar power plants with the following characteristics for each hospital:
- May Pen Hospital: 78 KWp grid with roof-mounted solar power plant
- National Chest Hospital: 82 KWp grid-connected with roof-mounted solar power plant
- Sir John Golding Rehabilitation Centre: 13.2 KWp rooftop solar power plant.
All three projects were successfully commissioned in April 2021.
Each project includes
- Needs assessment and site survey
- Civil engineering work by local partner
- Installation of module structures on the roof
- Grid fencing
- Integration of solar generator
- International and local logistics
- On-site installation
- Commissioning and training of local partners
- Maintenance contract
We also provide solar power plant production monitoring and after-sales service for three years after system commissioning.
