New Winthorpes

Project seeks to ensure that schools are able to open as soon as possible after a hurricane by installing Grid-Interactive PV Systems on the buildings. The project will encourage more awareness about environmental sustainability and renewable energy through the Whole School education campaigns produced and committed to by schools, produce environmental management systems reports which will inform institutions of what adaptation measures they can adopt to be more resilient (in keeping with the EPMA), identify GHG emissions sources on schools - to contribute towards mitigating against climate change. Finally, it will collate lessons learnt for smoother scaling up of the project and share them with the other countries in the OECS who are working towards making their schools more resilient, since the region shares the same climate change effects/ challenges.
