Named for the country’s
highest peak in the Andes, the Huascaran Project will provide
computers, servers, and Internet connections via satellite to schools
in remote communities of the country for long-distance education. The
solar portion of the project is for between 600 and 1,000 sites.
Bidding for PV suppliers is expected to start sometime in the second
half of 2002. BP Solar was involved in a pilot program of the
Huascaran Project in 2000, during which it provided PV installations
for 30 schools. wph
