In Abyan, Yemen, efforts to improve local infrastructure through solar energy and facility upgrades have progressed across different sectors.

Initially, officials in the Sarr-Yafa district conducted site surveys for a new solar power plant. Supported by the World Bank, the project aimed to establish a generating capacity of 3 to 5 megawatts to enhance electricity stability in areas such as Al-Mukhaylifah and Al-Mujaza.

Subsequently, solar energy implementation was highlighted in the education sector at the Batiss School Complex. Funded by CDCS and implemented by CARE International, this project included the inauguration of four new classrooms and a restroom facility, alongside a solar energy system designed to power administrative offices and classrooms to mitigate high temperatures.
