On December 12, 2020, DAT Corporation organized a charity program, delivering a solar power system to Thien Phuoc Shelter located at 156 Vo Thi Lieu, An Phu Dong Ward, District 12, Ho Chi Minh City. The event was attended by representatives from DAT’s leadership, Ho Chi Minh City Power Corporation, media units, as well as all teachers and children at Thien Phuoc Shelter.

Thien Phuoc Shelter provides care for over 60 disabled and orphaned children. It serves as a rehabilitation and educational center for children with disabilities such as epilepsy, cerebral palsy, and developmental delays within the city. Despite facing challenges in infrastructure and facilities, the shelter is filled with laughter and love from teachers and volunteers.

In a commitment to support Thien Phuoc Shelter in using clean energy, reduce monthly electricity costs, and improve the quality of life for the children, DAT organized a volunteer program and sponsored a 7kWp solar power project with a total capacity of 17.8kWp installed at the shelter.

The system includes 40 Canadian Solar panels  và 1 Sungrow grid-tied inverter, ensuring stable operation and high efficiency, expected to generate nearly 2.1MWh of electricity per month. This initiative is estimated to save approximately 6 million VND in monthly electricity costs, which can be redirected to improve teaching equipment, facilities, and the overall care for the children.

During the ceremony, Mr. Phan Khac Tu, Director of Thien Phuoc Shelter, expressed his gratitude: “I am delighted and thankful to DAT Corporation for supporting us in implementing the solar power project and organizing such a meaningful volunteer program. With the efficiency that the solar system brings, the savings in monthly expenses can be used to purchase more teaching equipment, improve infrastructure, and provide better care and nutrition for the children.”

This marks the third “Lighting up Green Dreams” project by DAT, sponsoring and donating solar power systems to shelters and specialized educational institutions, aiming to share love and contribute positively to the community. Previously, in 2018 and 2019, DAT collaborated with EVNHCMC to implement and donate solar power systems to Giáo dục chuyên biệt 1/6 Districts 4 and Giáo dục chuyên biệt 15/5 Districts 11, spreading awareness about the benefits of solar energy and promoting environmental conservation.
