Aminata Koroma The installation and assembly of a wind turbine in Bonthe Town is currently underway, marking a significant milestone for the community.
The project represents a major step toward sustainable development and improved energy access on Bonthe Island. For residents, it signals progress in efforts to expand renewable energy infrastructure in the area.
Stakeholders say the initiative goes beyond infrastructure development, emphasizing the importance of community ownership and responsibility in ensuring its long-term success.
They noted that the sustainability of the wind turbine will depend largely on how well it is protected, maintained, and managed by the people it is intended to serve.

As the project advances, it is seen as a major step in promoting renewable energy and strengthening local development, while reinforcing the importance of collective responsibility in sustaining public infrastructure.
