Office Equipment Today. Solar Panels Tomorrow.

It is incredible to see how a small action can have big impacts in a community, especially when that community is geographically isolated, but powerfully organized. 

As part of the support and accompaniment that we are providing to the community of Blanca Flor, located 15 kilometers up a dirt road in the department of Huehuetenango, Guatemala, on April 13 we delivered a computer, a printer, a desk, and an office chair to furnish a community office. This donation was in response to a request from the community and is part of the project to acquire solar panels to provide electricity to 55 families.

You can support this project by donating today.

In the community assembly in which the equipment was handed off, an elected community representative explained what a difference this office equipment would make for them. It will transform an empty room in this isolated village into a community controlled non-profit organization. It will enable them to do basic, but crucial things like create documents, communicate with others, store important files and facilitate several projects, including that of the solar panels. In his speech, the representative offered deep thanks to Comunidad Maya Pixan Ixim and our donors for making this possible. 
​
Members of the Ancestral Plurinational Government of the Q'anjob'al, Chuj and Akateko nations, a close partner of ours, traveled with us to Blanca Flor. They had agreed to accompany us and also took advantage of the occasion to meet with the community to discuss strategies to move forward this project and to strengthen the autonomy of the territory. They also provided training for the members of the Board of Directors of the community association as part of a process of leadership development offered by the Ancestral Government. 

Fortunately, the current lack of electricity in the community will not prevent the use of the equipment, as they’ve secured a diesel generator to power it. However, the community is excited for the day when they will be able to power these tools and so many others with clean, renewable, solar energy.

The solar sector has very clear cost-cutting plans in place for the future, with solar costs expected to be reduced by half by 2030. Using a technology known as tandem silicon cells, higher-efficiency modules that can generate 1.5 times more power than existing, similar-sized modules are already being developed. Going forward, these will have a significant impact. In addition, there are plans to reduce the usage of expensive elements like silver and silicon in the production of solar cells, as well as bifacial modules, which allow panels to catch solar energy from both sides, and bifacial modules, which allow panels to capture solar energy from both sides. The best way to integrate solar into our homes, companies, and power infrastructures is another essential breakthrough.

I think it's really great how you are creating a community office and trying to implement solar generators and solar power for these families. You mentioned how solar power will enable them to do basic, but crucial things which I fully agree with it. Power is always overlooked and underappreciated especially on how important it is human life now so we really should provide power and clean power to those who do not have it.

Both of types of solar panels can be installed on your roof or by installing solar panel mounts in a designated area of your land.

So for those who don’t like the appearance of solar panels on a roof, thin film is a good alternative. There may be local solar rebate incentives for installing these types of solar panels.

This is such an inspiring story, and it reminds me of a trip I took to a rural village where something as simple as a generator transformed how people communicated. The way this community is working together to improve their lives, especially with plans for solar energy, is truly heartwarming. Kudos to the author for shedding light on such a meaningful and impactful project—it really shows how small contributions can lead to big, lasting changes.
