Renogy Doing Good Through the Jack Mah Foundation
Posted by on
RENOGY Joins the
Jack Ma Foundation in Optimizing a Rural School's Energy Management with
Solar Power. Students from
Zitong Elementary School in Chun’an County, Hangzhou City—one of five pilot
schools part of the Rural Boarding School Project founded by Jack Ma-- will benefit from this program.
Renogy, a member of the Jack Ma Foundation, recently donated a 10kW solar power system to Zitong Elementary School and created a solar education center
for the students. With the help of the 10kW solar power system, Zitong
Elementary School will be able to generate energy through solar and manage it
with the Renogy Cloud platform. By using the new power system, it will significantly reduce the school's electricity
costs and contribute to China's sustainable development.

The Solar Education Center built by Renogy will encourage students to acquire basic solar knowledge through activities and games. Renogy believes that the information learned and interest generated from the center will contribute to the growth of careers in the renewable energy sector.
