Nicaragua taking steps towards solar power
Oct 5th, 2009 by Kevin
Great to see developing countries like Nicaragua making efforts to leave fossil fuels behind. With some outside help Nicaragua is making some moves to help bring power to 7000 families via solar energy. Nicaragua like many countries suffers due to dependence of foreign oil from countries like Venezuela. Nicaragua has some great development opportunities in the area of alternative energy. In addition to solar, it has initiated ventures into wind, hydro electricity, and geothermal.
