Deng Ltd, Ghana, Solar electricity for rural communities – Ashden Award winner

September 24th, 2010

This video can be downloaded here: www.ashdenawards.org Deng won an Ashden Award for Sustainable Energy in 2007. To find out more visit the link above and check out the Ashden Awards Blog ashdenawards.blogspot.com Deng Ltd, an established engineering company in Accra, has developed a viable and sustainable business model for the provision of solar-home-systems to rural areas where access to grid electricity is limited. Deng has done this by venturing out of the capital and setting up a network of dealers to service the more remote areas. Deng has also set up a training centre for solar technicians in order to further expand the business and ensure the future sustainability of the scheme. The training centre, which has already trained 120 people from various sectors, is in itself a significant driver for growth of the solar PV market in Ghana. Whilst Deng does sell and install PV-powered grid backup systems around Accra, the mission and focus of Deng is in providing solar electricity to rural areas that do not have grid access. Since 1998 Deng has supplied 1000 fixed systems and 6000 solar lanterns to communities across Ghana.

Is the “Top Kill” working? (oil spill)?

September 24th, 2010

Question by Lolita_Cra-z!!!: Is the “Top Kill” working? (oil spill)?
I want to know if the plan, Top kill, is working. (Oil spill)

Best answer:

Answer by focaris
So far it is working. They have injected enough drilling mud to match the pressure of the reservoir, temporarily halting the flow of oil.

The next part of the plan is to cement the well so that it is more permanently sealed. A backup plan is to fill up the blow-out protector with solid material so that if the oil begins flowing again, it will be constricted, and the leak will be smaller. It will take a few days until this work is complete and its effectiveness can be gauged.
