After about three weeks of construction and a few short breaks, the project was completed today. The village of Mulungwe now has a well with a solar pump.
Shortly after sunrise, it is supplied with electricity from the installed solar system - until shortly before sunset. During this time, it pumps the water into a 5,000-litre tank. This is located on a ten metre high steel frame. This ensures sufficient pressure in the pipe.
We have built standpipes at three locations, in front of the clinic, on the grounds of the school about 150 metres away and at a crossroads to the market. Many people pass by the crossroads to the market and can get clean water.
