1 Solar energy and Burkina Faso Cooperation between Nordic Folkecenter for Renewable Energy and Association Kologh Naaba, Saaba

2 SUMMARY LOCALISATION - BURKINA FASO, SAABA RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES WHAT SOLAR CAN DO FOR US SOLAR INSTALLATIONS KOLOGH NAABA PART ELECTRICIAN TEAM TRAINING INSTALLATIONS WILLIAM WILLIAM AT FOLKECENTER FIELD TRIPS

3 Localisation Burkina Faso Ouagadougou Commune de Saaba

4 Burkina Faso Burkina Faso is a west African country, tropical climate, with two distinct seasons. It s a country that main activity is agriculture. 25% of the population has access to electricity Total 8000 localities, 6000 of them with less than 3000 inhabitants habitants in 2012

5 Saaba Saaba is department of Kadiogo province in central Burkina Faso. With habitants Saaba is composed of 23 villages Saaba means Blacksmith Baobab or Andansonia

6 Renewable Energy sources Hydropower 13% of power production Wind speeds are between 2 to 3 m/s Solar Lighting: Solar has the highest potential amongst other renewable energy sources with an average estimated to be 5.5 Kwh/(m²*day) for 3,000 to 3,500 hours a year Solar PV: Currently there no larger applications of solar PV for electricity generation to the grid

7 What can PV do for us? Solar home systems (off grid systems) Solar water pumping ( pure water) Solar vaccine fridges and solar lighting for clinics Solar lighting and power for schools Solar streetlights/community lights Solar phone systems

8 Solar installations for schools Equipment provided by Nordic Folkecenter - 20 Solarworld 160 Watt Poly - 20 Varta LFD 180 Ah batteries - 20 Steca Solar charging units - 2 Light Switch per school - 6 to 8 lamps per school (Sundaya) - 6 mm² and 2.5 mm² wire for the connection

9 Kologh Naaba part Production of woodens boxes for the batteries. Production of frames for solar panels.

14 Schools Installations A solar panel, a battery and a charge controller as well as 6-8 lamps are installed at each school.

15 Schools without ceiling Schools Installation

16 Schools with ceiling Schools Installations

17 Schools Installations Serviette and frame lock keys Chickens as a gift from the village

18 Schools Installation William receiving his certificate from the mayor of Saaba

19 William Bazie William from Burkina Faso, studied at high school as an electrotechnician up to get my bachelor 5 months training at the railway station between Ivory Coast and Burkina Faso Worked as an electrician for Association Kologh Naaba for the installations of 20 schools in solar off grid system Recommended by Daron Miller our trainer (from Canada), a former trainee at Folkecenter for a 6 months training at Folkecenter

20 William at Folkecenter Arrived the 13 th august 2013 (duration of 6 months)

21 Taking measurement of an off grid system

22 What I learn Designing an off grid system (panels, batteries, charge controllers, inverters..) Taking measurement of a system to work appropriately (current, voltage) Organising solar installations projects Recognising the right components of an installation

23 Field trips Meeting to the Danish Foreign Ministry

24 Field trips Visit at COWI - Training with Svend Erik on a programm Pvsyst. Pvsyst is a software applications for developing energy productions estimates for photovoltaics systems.

25 Field trip Hvide Sande:Three 3MW wind turbines were installed, close to the port of Hvide Sande. The profit from the turbines will benefit the local community. As can be seen. They are located very close to the sea

26 Field trips Ulfborg, Jutland : Tvindkraft The first oldest modern wind mill in Denmark, it is 35 years old, built by the school community without any help of the governement. 900 kw, 53 meters high

27 Field trips Hanstholm: Nordic Folkecenter has a wind turbine build in 1992, 525 kw, with 48 meters high connected to 10 Kv transformer

28 THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION
