GALAPAGOS ISLANDS
Training Day. The classroom was set up at one of the high schools in San Cristobal. We had over 30 participants in this class. Again, the class was made up of students, teachers, municipality workers, and, at this class, representatives of ElecGalapagos, the local electrical utility. Everyone showed a lot of interest, with a lot of great questions.
After the class, Seth took care of some tasks he needed to do at the national park headquarters, in preparation for the installation at San Cristobal next week. We then went into the park, to the existing solar-power installation, and did some transferring of files from the computer there, and retrieved a chip from the existing inverter that we made to gather data in San Cristobal.
