In April 2024, corporate travelers from IGS Energy will work with GRID to install an off-grid solar system at the woman-owned Eco-Hotel Roca Lagarto in Mancarrón, Nicaragua.
Roca Lagarto Eco-Hotel is owned and operated by Carina Rodriguez, a pioneering entrepreneur and boat captain with an innovative vision for her region of Mancarrón, Nicaragua. The national electric grid has not reached the developing area of Roca Lagarto in Mancarrón. Carina aspires to provide her clients better services and clean, reliable electricity 24 hours a day.
GRID and travelers will install a 5.13kW off-grid, battery-based system to provide clean energy. Carina hopes solar will attract more visitors, increasing the hotel's income and allowing it to offer more services and jobs for her community.
Project Dates: April 20-27, 2024
Location: Mancarrón, Nicaragua
