Abstract: The delivery of health care to children living on isolated island
communities presents unique challenges to health professionals. An

evolved method of providing longitudinal services to infants and

children residing on islands of the Marshall Island chain ~ a central
Pacific portion of the Micronesian archipelago - is presented. The

difficulties associated with provision of comprehensive health care in
a vast ocean area are discussed.

Abstract: The NASA Lewis Research Center (LeRC) is managing stand-alone
photovoltaic (PV) system activities sponsored by the U.S. Department of
Energy

(DOE)

and the U.S.

Agency for International Development

(AID).

The DOE project includes village PV power demonstration projects in
Gabon

(four sites)

and the Marshall

Islands,

PV-powered medical

refrigerators in six countries, PV system microprocessor control
development activities and PV-hybrid system assessments. The AID
project includes a large village system in Tunisia, a water
pumping/grain grinding project in Upper Volta, five medical clinics in
four countries, PV-powered medical refrigerator field tests in eighteen
countries and one PV-powered remote earth station application. This
paper reviews these PV activities and summarizes significant findings

to date.
