All Praise the Singer

This little tyke gave it all as a Praise Singer at an event held in Cofimvaba to celebrate the unveiling of three hydrogen fuel cells at three schools in the Chris Hani district.

On Friday, 12 June 2015, Minister Naledi Pandor from the Department of Science and Technology (DST) unveiled hydrogen fuel cells which provide standby power to three schools in Cofimvaba, Eastern Cape, as part of its Technology for Rural Education Development (TECH4RED) project.

The fuel cells, which have been operating at St Marks Junior Secondary School, Arthur Mfebe Senior Secondary School, and Mvuzo Junior Secondary School since September 2014, were commissioned by Clean Energy Investments, a South African company co-owned by the DST and Anglo-American Platinum (AAP).

AAP sponsored the three platinum-based fuel cell systems, including installation and ongoing maintenance and operations, while Air Products supplied the hydrogen fuel tanks and fuel. All three companies have committed to continuing with their sponsorship for three years.
