A new mobile energy system aimed at addressing electricity challenges in Fiji's rural and maritime communities that are not connected to the national power grid was launched in Yasawa i Rara this evening.
Marshall Islands Ambassador to Fiji Junior Aini officially switched on the Lyten Voltpack Mobile System in the presence of villagers and members of the Yasawa i Rara community.
The system can operate using both solar power and diesel, providing an alternative electricity solution for communities without access to the national grid.
Energy Solutions Pacific Directors Anwa Khan and Frank Hamagushi told villagers that the system has the capacity to power up to 64 homes, a mortuary, a fully functioning maternity unit and a cold storage facility to help preserve their fish catch for longer periods.
Also attending the launch were Lyten Key Account Manager Svilen Keranov and Lyten Global Adviser Ingrid Andersson, who both travelled to Fiji for the occasion.
