Holguin, Jun 27 (ACN) Education authorities in eastern Holguin province are promoting the use of renewable energy sources, particularly solar energy, in local schools to meet power demand.
The head of the renewable energy in the province Alexander Leyva told the Cuban News Agency that they are implementing projects like the setting up of solar heaters and panels in schools with the largest student registration in the territory with the aim of expanding that renewable energy source.
