DSTC Solar training center was established in 2009 and in technical cooperation with Global Sustainable Energy Solutions of Australia, and the department of Mechanical Engineering and Agriculture of KNUST at Kumasi, Ghana. Initial co-financing was secured from DEG Germany. Other Sponsorships have been received from The Australian High Commission in Ghana. DSTC has been established to contribute to the wider use of solar energy in West Africa in general, Ghana in particular, and thus expand the solar energy market into off grid districts. Solar lighting in the off grid districts will give equal opportunities to students to study, reduce pollution, improve health facilities, and social life.
