Hissya Industrial City has reached an advanced stage by investing in renewable energies while providing all facilities to encourage industrialists to set up projects to generate electricity from solar or wind energy on the rooftops of the hangars in their facilities.
The director of the industrial city in Hissya, Dr. Bassam Al-Mansour, told SANA that the city administration had taken the lead in establishing renewable energy projects, as it had studied, designed, supplied, implemented and installed lighting for the government complex in the industrial city in Hissya.
Al-Mansour underlined the importance of the geographical location of Hissya Industrial city in generating electricity from solar energy.
Al-Mansour pointed to several renewable energy projects in Hissya, including four implemented and installed projects, which are connected to the public electricity network in the Industrial City.
Director of a private renewable energy company in Homs, Muhammad Iyad Qalfoni, indicated that a large solar energy project with a capacity of one megawatt-hour was being implemented using 1958 panels distributed among 18 inverters, each with a capacity of 50 kilowatts.
