dear friends, grupo fenix is the parent of suni solar, the company that installed solar power in the community center in nuevo amanecer and is field testing solar units for individual homes there and in chacraseca. grupo is very much into organic, sustainable development including composting toilets and other innovations. hopefully members of our group would be able to take part in this course. best to all, dick wiltamuth ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Grupo Fenix <thegrupofenix@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, Apr 15, 2011 at 1:07 PM Subject: RE: Particpate in Grupo Fenix's Solar

Our hands-on courses allow you to be immersed in the daily life of rural Nicaraguans by living with host families and working alongside local community members to create their vision of a model community through renewable energy and sustainable practices. Discuss the theory behind solar energy and the challenges of development with your instructors and other course participants. Spend your days learning how to build solar cookers, photovoltaic panels, and installing photovoltaic systems. Laugh along with your host family as you try to recall your high school Spanish, balance water on your head or make tortillas. Most activities and classes are held in the new adobe Solar Center . Housing will be simple, like that of a typical rural Nicaraguan family. Explore a beautiful country and its culture while learning about renewable energy and sustainable development in the field. Our courses provide a unique travel experience that is educational, rewarding, and fun! This 9-day course, offered twice a year, has been held by Grupo Fenix since 1999. It is a great introduction to the science and use of appropriate renewable energy technologies such as solar cookers, dryers and photo-voltaic systems. Participants will: · Visit Suni Solar, a renewable energy business in Managua started by Grupo Fenix · Build a solar oven with the local women’s cooperative, the Solar Women of Totogalpa · Listen to talks on Solar Dryers and Medicinal Plants · Learn about solar cooking and eat the final product of your class! · Install a PV system with local solar experts · Make a solar powered battery charger Also, the course includes a visit to the nearby beautiful spot, the Somoto Canyon where you will spend a day exploring and swimming in its natural pools. The course fee of $800 includes all food and lodging, with a $50 deposit to be sent to the nonprofit Skyheat Associates at PO Box 184, Harrington ME 04643 before 1st May to insure a place in the course, which has a limit of 20 participants and is often completely full.
