Tobago’s Main Ridge Recreation Site will now have electricity connectivity using solar energy.
This is made possible through the European Union’s Global Climate Change Alliance Plus Initiative with the Ministry of Planning and Development and the UNDP.
During the Solar Ppanel Installation Handing Over Ceremony on Friday, Minister of Planning and Development Pennelope Beckles-Robinson explained the efficiency of the system.
Chief Secretary Farley Augustine expressed climate change has been having a great impact on the island’s infrastructure and weather patterns. As such, he noted the Tobago House of Assembly is grateful for projects like these.
At the Main Ridge Recreation Site, educational resources are found about the Main Ridge Forest Reserve and is a usual stop for visitors.
