Project 4 Solar energy

由Mariam Kolaghassi

The young man made the wind bring water to Wimbe, his hometown, in the central region of Malawi. With recycled materials, plastic tubes, the mill generated enough energy to pump water from the local well.

With his determination, and thanks to the complicity of his teacher, the young man continued to go to the library of the educational center. There he found a book entitled Using energy which he used as the basis for his project.

At just fourteen, Kamkwamba devised a windmill five meters high. An idea that started at the local Kachokolo school.
