In many regions of the world where grid power is nonexistent and costly diesel and/or gasoline driven generators are rare, solar power presents a realistic, immediate, sustainable, and cost effective power source.



Solar electricity systems designed by and/or purchased from Innovative Solar Solutions (ISS) are currently being used to provide:

? solar water pumping solutions for villages, livestock and agriculture;

? refrigeration for health and medical clinics to preserve medicines and vaccines;

? power for rural schools so students can utilize computers and other electronic devices; and

? electricity to operate telecommunications systems and repeater towers.

Innovative Solar Solutions is an experienced leader in the design, distribution, and deployment of solar electric products, systems, and services for commercial, residential, and developing world applications. We have provided cost-effective solar electricity, solar water pumping, and solar refrigeration systems to customers throughout the world (see examples below).

Examples of recent ISS International Projects:

Environmental Foundation for Africa (EFA): Provided the equipment (PV panels, inverters, batteries, refrigerators, etc.) necessary to provide solar generated electricity at 12 locations in Liberia and Sierra Leone, including 5 medical clinics, schools, and research facilities. Solar energy is providing fully functioning electrical systems that power vaccine refrigerators, lighting, communications, and with the use of the inverters, AC outlets that enable the use of computers and other electrical equipment and appliances. The projects, funded by UNHCR, UNICEF, and Irish Aide, also include a training component so that local community members can install and maintain the solar systems. For a more detailed description of this Solar Initiative, review pages 14-17 of the EFA Annual Report.

New Hope Uganda: Designed and provided all of the equipment for a 4 kilowatt solar PV system to provide power to a communications tower for an orphanage in Uganda. The system is providing power for computers and internet access for the children in the orphanage. System included 24 Sharp 170W panels, Outback Inverter and Charge Controllers, 32 Deka AGM 12V batteries, and two mounting racks for 12 panels each.

US Military - Afghanistan Clinic: Designed and supplied all equipment for a 4KW uninterruptible power supply system to provide power for critical needs for medical clinic. System included 2KW of Sharp solar modules, 3 battery banks and enclosures, assembly of all equipment and racking.

ELCA Global Mission: Worked closely with mission engineer to design a system for solar water pumping, and solar powered system for office at facility in Central African Republic. Major system components included Grundfos submersible pump, Exeltech Inverter, and Morningstar charge controller.

Ricks Institute of Liberia: Designed and supplied two solar powered water pumping systems to provide clean water for a school in Liberia. System included 12 Sharp 170W panels, and 2 Grundfos SQ Flex submersible pumps with generator interface and float switches.
