For this purpose, traditional lighting sources such as petroleum lamps, candles or small, battery-driven lamps are being replaced by the distribution of solar lamps.\r\n\r\nThis project financed by wpd fits into the above-mentioned programme. The intention is to make a contribution towards reducing the emissions of ecologically harmful CO<sub>2<\/sub>\u00a0and rust particles, easing the burden on the budgets of 500 families, improving the quality of night-time lighting and lowering the risk of fire.\r\n\r\nThe project has recently been re-evaluated by the external organisation HANDS. Their report confirmed the relevance, cost-effectiveness and efficacy of the project and referenced its immense importance for the everyday life of the rural population in the project villages. Both the lamps and the charging stations have been further refined from a technical standpoint. Further improvements are planned for the future. weiss    a:2:{i:0;s:11:&#8221;text-normal&#8221;;i:1;s:5:&#8221;cards&#8221;;} Further projects   grau slider 2977 Solar drinking water supply in Togo The project contributes to equitable access to affordable clean drinking water. a:3:{s:5:&#8221;title&#8221;;s:10:&#8221;Learn more&#8221;;s:3:&#8221;url&#8221;;s:116:&#8221;https:\/\/www.wpd.de\/en\/wpd\/sustainable-action-at-wpd\/climate-protection-projects\/solar-drinking-water-supply-in-togo\/&#8221;;s:6:&#8221;target&#8221;;s:0:&#8221;&#8221;;} 2962 Supplying health centers with CO<sub>2<\/sub>-free electricity in Madagascar wpd has ensured the electrification of a health center by installing a rooftop solar system. a:3:{s:5:&#8221;title&#8221;;s:10:&#8221;Learn more&#8221;;s:3:&#8221;url&#8221;;s:145:&#8221;https:\/\/www.wpd.de\/en\/wpd\/sustainable-action-at-wpd\/climate-protection-projects\/supplying-health-centers-with-co2-free-electricity-in-madagascar\/&#8221;;s:6:&#8221;target&#8221;;s:0:&#8221;&#8221;;} 1951 Small biogas plants in Nepal In this project, wpd is financing the construction and repair of small biogas plants in Nepal.
