#### 05. 34. 10 INSTALLATION OF 200 PV LIGHTING SYSTEMS FOR STUDY

The project provides for PV powered lighting for study purposes in each of the 200 or so tank localities included in the project area. Few of the areas will have a suitable study room so suitable rooms will have to be built to qualify for the PV lighting. Study rooms will be built under the LETS local currency system, and each of the LETS members in that tank area would be debited for his/her share of the building cost. As an incentive to build study rooms, the costs of the PV lighting have been included in the general project costs. Over time, all 200 tank area groups may see fit to provide study areas for their students. The tank commissions will be responsible for PV lighting in their area

PV lighting and/or PV refrigeration facilities for clinics within the project area would also be the responsibility of the tank commissions where the clinics are located. The situation concerning schools or clinics outside the project area serving in part users living within the project area presents practical problems which will need to be discussed case by case when the project is finalised.

PV lighting or power sources needed for productive purposes will be financed on a case by case basis using micro-credit loans.

Financing PV lighting or power sources for (home) systems not used for production can be negotiated between individual users and the Local Bank when those users have enough income to meet the extra cost. The terms of the hire-purchase loan and lease agreements for Solar Home Systems will be agreed with the local bank before the project starts.

Cost of equipment
Cost of installation. Installation will be done under the LETS systems.

Total cost Euro 105.000

The project coordinator may instruct the groups who have installed the water pumping installations to carry out the PV lighting installations and maintenance in the clinics under the local money LETS system.

05.34. 11 INSTALLATION OF PV TELEVISION SETS (AND/OR COMPUTER SETS) FOR STUDY PURPOSES.

Some may wish to install a PV powered television set for educational use as well. However, there are practical problems in managing TV sets, and these will need further discussion when the project is being finalised. Purchase of a set may, for instance depend on how much educational material is available in the local languages, whether the study room supplied offers a suitable weather-proof environment for the television set, whether the set is adequately protected against theft, and

This is listed pro-memorium for further discussion as there are some practical problems with the use of TV sets.

In principle the tank commission can approve the installation of a PV operated TV system (FOR STUDY PURPOSES) provided:
a) A study room has been built and correctly protected against weather, dust, and theft
b) Sufficient didactic material is available in the local language to justify the installation of a TV set.

c)W hether the project is able to supply maintenance back-up.

d)Warranty is given that the TV set not be "confiscated" for purposes of "comfort" for group vision of commercial TV programmes.

The funds necessary for the installation in good faith of TV equipment and/or computer sets for study purposes will be transferred from the project reserves, where funds are provided for them in the balance sheet. These formal money funds are paid back by the users into the Cooperative Local Development Fund over a reasonable period of time agreed between the Project Management and the tank commission in question. The rate of repayment may in some cases be the same for all tank commissions, or it may vary from one tank commission to another on the basis of the financial possibilities of the families served by each tank commission.

The project coordinator may instruct the groups who have installed the water pumping installations to carry out the PV lighting installations and maintenance in the clinics under the local money LETS system.

05.34. 20 INSTALLATION OF PV LIGHTING AND/OR TELEVISION AND/OR COMPUTER SYSTEMS IN SCHOOLS

This has been indicated pro-memorium. Whether PV lighting is needed in schools in addition to the PV lighting already included at tank commission level for study is unclear, but the possibility of beginning evening adult education classes should not be overlooked.

05.34. 30 INSTALLATION OF PV LIGHTING AND REFRIGERATION SYSTEMS IN CLINICS

Three clinics have been included within the project area, each having one refrigerator for vaccines.

A budget of Euro 5.000 has been allowed for lighting and another Euro 5.000 for refrigeration in each clinic.

Total budget PV lighting and refrigeration in clinics: Euro 30.000

Cases where clinics outside the project area serve users inside the project area are mentioned pro-memorium and will need to be discussed on a case by case basis.

The project coordinator may instruct the groups who have installed the water pumping installations to carry out the PV lighting installations and maintenance in the clinics under the local money LETS system.
