Full article – Yoma Micro Power celebrated the inauguration of its 250th solar-hybrid power plant at Thit Seint Gyi village in Wetlett township, Sagaing Division in March 2020.

Spread across an area of 175,000 square kilometres in Sagaing and Magway Regions, Mandalay Division and Naypytaw Union Territory, the solar-hybrid plants are powering 250 off-grid telecom towers as well as 25 villages and 25,000 people who had previously relied on diesel power, offsetting 5,000 tons of greenhouse gas emissions annually.
