The installation of solar panels at the Headquarters of Special Services Divisions in Port Moresby is desired to ensure the work at SSD base continues during power outages.
The much-needed stand by electricity generator is from Energy company Santos.
Santos hopes this gesture shows that the Australian Company is dedicated to supporting functions of the Royal Papua New Guinea Constabulary.
Mobile Squad Deputy Director, Chief Inspector Luvi Florian acknowledged the support towards the division.
He said the training facilities not only train officers in Port Moresby but also officers throughout PNG.
“The installation of the solar panels is now a great relief for us, Thanks to Santos. They also maintained our office, painted it, and it’s shining now,” said Director Florian.
Apart from installing solar panels, their support included building a fence and renovating offices and an ablution block, and installing a water tank at the SSD base at McGregor Barracks.
The Mobile Sqaud has been involved in a number of call outs to the upper Highlands Region for varies Government operations including maintaining a presence at the Porgera mine.
The SSD Director also acknowledged the New Britain Palm Oil for providing seven computers to the SSD office in Milne Bay Province.
