Solar-powered freshwater system enhances maternal health in Mozambique
LONGi, a prominent solar technology manufacturer, and Senergia, a Swedish solar energy wholesaler, have collaborated with the non-profit organization Project Vita to donate a solar-powered freshwater system to a maternity clinic in Linga Linga, Mozambique. The project, completed in May 2024, included the construction of a water tower and the installation of LONGi solar panels to power a water pump, supplying fresh water to the clinic.

The partnership has been instrumental in addressing this critical need.
