For long time the monks of Hanga abbey have been struggling to get reliable source of electricity. The small hydroelectric plant does not generate enough power for the many uses at the abbey besides that during summertime water level gets very low for the generation of electricity. A recent alternative of using national grid electricity has shown to be very expensive. Amid these challenges solar power proves to be another better source of electricity.
Early this August the monks broke ground to prepare a site to lay solar panels. It involved uprooting big trees and leveling off the ground. All the work was done by hands using hoes, axes, and machetes. Thanks to our benefactors.
