EPA seeks to achieve sustainability in the operation of drinking water stations by installing a solar energy system as an alternative source to burning fuel that pollutes the environment and is considered expensive and sometimes unavailable. In this project, high-spec European technology equipment was installed from https://www.lorentz.de/ and the project was designed to be the first of its kind in northern Syria in terms of compatibility between mechanical equipment (pumps), electrical equipment and solar panels to achieve optimal operating conditions with the possibility of remote control and monitoring. A washing system was also added to the solar panels to obtain high efficiency in energy production.
Project Keys
- The project aims to ensure the stability of the population by enhancing access to safe and sustainable water:
- Installing solar energy systems with a total capacity of 200 kilowatts, sufficient to operate the Western Al-Foua water station.
- Installing submersible pumps with control panels in the Al-Foua station.
- Installing a chlorine sterilization system in the three stations.
- Maintaining and expanding the drinking water network in Al-Foua with a total length of 3500 meters.
- Replacing solar panels in the Taoum and Civil Defense stations.
- Awareness activities to rationalize water and health education for the beneficiary communities.
