Powering Sierra Leone's Hospitals This  intervention  will  provide  reliable  solar  power  to  hospitals  to  ensure  the  availability  of referral  services  that  are  critical  to  ending  the  preventable  deaths  of  women  and  children.  Specifically it will: install  stand-alone  solar  systems  that will  be  the  primary power source for off-grid hospitals,  and  reliable  back-up  power for  key referral  facilities that  currently  have unreliable grid power; and work  with  the  Ministry of Health and Sanitation (MOHS) and  potential  suppliers  to ensure a  sustainable  maintenance regime for FCDO funded systems, while supporting ongoing efforts to develop a sector wide maintenance approach.
