Fifty women from across the country are set to begin receive training in the use and operation solar photovoltaic systems, beginning April, 2025.
This initiative is made possible through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) which was signed between the Ministry of Education and the Guyana Power and Light Inc (GPL).
In a statement, GPL said the collaboration will target women from regions 2, 5, 6 and 10.
