Renewable Energy/Energy Conservation Projects
Energy & Water Conservation Education
March 2016
S4S have been involved with the energy and water education strategy.
Exert from article:
“This new strategy stresses on the objective of promoting wise use of energy and water and the links between their efficiency through five key messages: use energy and water resources wisely at home, school and in the workplace to help the environment and save money; choose energy and water efficiency equipment and appliances, using energy efficiency labeling as a guideline; make your homes and buildings more energy and water efficient; adopt renewable energy technologies; and make use of financial initiatives to invest in energy efficiency, water efficiency and renewable energy.”

Promoting Renewable Energy at La Digue School
February 2016
In February 2015, S4S and Energy Solutions Seychelles partnered up to teach kids and teachers about green energy technologies, especially solar photovoltaic (PV) which has recently been installed at the school. Teachers brainstormed how to integrate teaching about renewable energy into the curriculum, and now the work begins. The project is being funded by the GEF PV project.
