Our recent project with the Palapa Society in Todos Santos is one of the installations we are most proud of. The school had long struggled with unreliable grid power, often being forced to send students home during outages—disrupting classes, programs, and community activities. They needed more than just lower electricity costs; they needed true energy independence.
After a full engineering assessment, our team designed a robust hybrid solar and backup system built around over 15,000 watts of high-efficiency solar panels, providing clean, reliable energy throughout the day. At the heart of the system are two Victron Quattro 10 kVA inverters, selected specifically because Victron technology is widely regarded as the most robust and dependable solution for demanding environments—particularly here in Baja Sur, where heat, humidity, and fluctuating grid conditions can quickly expose weaknesses in lesser equipment. The Quattro platform also gives the school room for future expansion, ensuring the system can grow alongside their needs.
The installation was carried out in close collaboration with volunteers from YachtAid Global, who generously funded the project and worked alongside our technicians throughout the build. Their support and commitment were instrumental in bringing this system to life.
Today, the Palapa Society enjoys dramatically reduced CFE bills and dependable power continuity. Even during grid failures, the school can remain fully operational—ensuring students have a safe, stable, and uninterrupted learning environment. This project stands as a testament to what can be accomplished through thoughtful engineering, quality equipment, and community partnerships working toward a shared goal.
If you’d like to support a genuinely meaningful cause, we encourage you to consider supporting the Palapa Society and YachtAid Global. Their work directly strengthens our local communities and empowers the next generation.
