Zone6: Fuel tank phase2
Here’s a picture of the fuel tank delivered some days ago. The tank will be connected to the new 1.5MW generator in the next few weeks. Here are some interesting facts about the fuel tank:

- Capacity: The tank has a 9171 US gallon capacity.
- Consumption: A 1.5MW generator like the one that should be connected soon, used at 100 % of its load capacity will consume around 109 US gallon an hour. For normal use, which is 75 % of its load capacity, we talk about around 80 US gallon an hour.
- Autonomy: As for the autonomy, a 1.5MW generator with a full tank can work during 84 hours. In a closer future, we plan to install 2 more 1.5MW generators, therefore, for 3 generators, we talk about 28 hours autonomy.

Zone6: Ventilation ducks and water tower plumbing phase2
Here’s a picture of the work in progress of the plumbing on the water tower lines and the work on the ventilation system. Ventilation ducks were set up above the water tower and the work should be completed this week. The connection of the water lines continues and should be finalized soon.
