Look at those views! A nice side benefit of switching Jamaican businesses to solar is the beautiful settings we get to work in. We just energized an array for our partners Rubis at their new location next to the Portmore toll plaza, just behind a lovely stretch of coastline.

Soleco's partner Rubis generously matched the order, bringing the total to 5,000 lanterns, which will be distributed by the remarkable Food For the Poor, with help from Rubis's team members who work in every corner of the island. Our Today was there to cover the arrival of the lanterns to FFTP's amazing warehouse outside Spanish Town.

This piece in The New York Times shows how, whether for your commercial /industrial site or home, Hurricane Melissa spotlit solar’s vital role in redundancy and resilience.
Some excerpts:

Jamaica’s electricity [is] some of the priciest in the world per kilowatt-hour.

…solar power is…seen as a way for Jamaica and other nations in one of the world’s most hurricane-prone regions to become more resilient to ever-intensifying storms.

…at a time when ports, refineries, power plants and transmission lines are becoming vulnerable to extreme weather worsened by a warming planet.…“With solar, you maintain some ability to continue generating electricity” without relying on hundreds of miles of damaged power lines, he said. “When the hurricane passes, if I have rooftop solar and batteries and if I can keep my refrigerator running, my entire neighborhood benefits.”

“Resiliency is becoming even more important than lowering your bill.”

…none of his nearly 300 clients have reported extensive damage, he said.

…The panels survived, apart from one that was punctured by flying debris. She had electricity and air-conditioning the morning after the storm, much to the envy of her neighbors.

“Now everyone who runs villas here wants solar.”

“It was about having very reliable power, and having peace of mind.”

“The wind was like a tornado, and water came through every crevice,” Ms. Hue said. “But we didn’t lose any solar panels, and the next morning, the sun was shining bright and early,” she said. “We had our power back.”
