The system is part of activities under the “green summer” programme of the RoK’s Seoul National University, funded by the RoK Institute for Hydraulics and Nuclear Energy with a 15,000 USD.
The solar power-run facility, installed at the Phuoc An No. 3 Primary School, is the result of one week of joint efforts made by 44 RoK students and technicians and 10 students from the Vietnam National University - Ho Chi Minh City.
Under the programme, another 10 domestic water filters are being installed in disadvantaged households in the commune’s Thanh Huy 2 village.-VNA
