The main aim of this trip was to create a level of success in the project village Tula, so that for the next trip there would be a better chance of an extensive completion of the total energy system in Tula.
A more extensive description of work done in 2018 can be found in the Project Report 2018 (also at www.creaprotect.de). In 2018, we were able to lay a new power line all the way to „Trompete“, so that the technicians were able to make the home connections themselves.
Due to a strike of lightning in 2016 it was necessary for us, in January 2017, to make a damage report and with the help of an emergency power inverter and bring the installation back up and running again which we succeeded, (see report January 2017).
In January / February 2016, the village network was extended to another part of the village. So, by the time we left Tula, at the beginning of February 2016, approximately 85 residential cottages, two churches, the village administration and school were joined onto the network.
From December 2013 to March 2014, our six big transportation crates "rested" in the harbor of Djibouti, for a shocking storage fee of over 1000 Euro, with the motto "A loss is also a trade".
In Jan. / Febr. 2013 in Tula, important preparations for the later installation could be realized (foundation work; partial construction of the mast; see -Result report 2013 under www.creaprotect.de).
After the project village Debo has been established, in the Highlands of Ethiopia, where the Energy plant has been installed since 2007/08, despite some further necessary demands. The village Tula, in Southern Ethiopia could now be taken on as a new project village to be realised.
It was known that the trip was restricted both by time and staff, since it was mostly concerned with situation recordings and conversation about planning.
The trip 2011 consisted of a double goal: In Debo, the installation had to be inspected and the different orders to be taken care of by the technicians needed to be checked, see report 2010 under 3).
The Solar-Wind energy system in Debo has been running since February 2008. In February 2008, the wind power installation was supplemented with a solar installation and in October 2009 the sail blade turbine was replaced by a gearless three bladed turbine.
Since the supplement of the wind powered installation through a solar installation (1,4 KW) during the February action 2008, our installation in Debo virtually delivered electric energy without interruption for the health centre / hospital, street lighting, administration, individual school areas, workshop and church.
