Energizing Healthcare Conference Remarks

Amida Adiatu Bangura describes how SEforALL's Healthcare Electrification Project provided 24/7 solar electricity to one hospital and 25 community health centres in Sierra Leone, eliminating reliance on unreliable diesel generators and reducing the need for dangerous patient transfers. The project also promoted gender equality by training 11 women in solar installation and renewable energy skills.

• The Healthcare Electrification Project implemented by SEforALL provided 24/7 solar electricity to 25 community health centres and one hospital in Sierra Leone, enabling the Kailahun Government Hospital to operate all departments, including its ICU, at maximum capacity.
• Prior to the project, the Kailahun Government Hospital relied on diesel generators that were often faulty and unreliable, which compromised patient care and forced critical patients to undergo dangerous six-to-eight-hour ambulance transfers to Kenema.
• The project increased women's participation in the energy sector by training 11 women in renewable energy skills and solar installation, roles that were traditionally dominated by men.
