USAID Project Provides Electricity Network to Naher El Bared Camp Area

September 22, 2011

USAID undertook a thorough examination of the needs of the community in the area adjacent to Naher El Bared Camp.  Results show critical need for expansion of the electricity distribution network in Zone E Prime of the Adjacent Area.  Prior to the 2007 conflict 600 families and over 60 small stores utilized the area.  Returning electricity to the area will pull these people back.  Through TAMKIN, USAID funded a 36 m3 electrical station with two transformers and the installation of 45 iron electrical poles (also equipped with streetlamps) and 2,338 m of electric cables.
