This project aims to enhance the health, safety, and security conditions of host/refugee populations settled in Greater Beirut through the provision of renewable energy solutions to public facilities providing critical services in the community as well as street lighting. Within the Greater Beirut area, two Lebanese Civil Defense Centers and one Fire Brigade in Bourj Hammoud, Jdeide and Bachoura are targeted to receive solar photovoltaic systems and corresponding equipment to ensure that they have access to electricity 24 hours a day. As well as, rehabilitating and providing energy to streetlights neighbouring the three facilities to improve safety and security of their surroundings.
Noting Lebanon’s current energy crisis, this project is crucial to facilitate access to electricity for public facilities and streetlights in their surroundings to ensure continuity of their operations. This in turn will ensure access of the vulnerable communities to social and health services and enhanced safety and security conditions.
