Photovoltaic Sun Energy Supporting the Health Services

Fernindez Hernindez*, Efrain Sanchez Gonzalez

Background: In Cuba all health services are covered by the fiscal resources. That’s why the Cuban government most takes heavy decisions to support the transportation and electrician services for health services. The majority from the electricity generated in Cuba is obtained by gross petroleum. Then, the health services and the patient’s satisfaction are close related to the importation of gross petroleum to support the electrician and the health services transportation demand. The use of photovoltaic sun energy contributes to reduce the electrician demand generated by fossil fuel, to reduce the importation of gross petroleum to generate electricity and the save in international currency obtained may be used to cover the importation costs related to transportation services for the health services. Objective: To value the use of photovoltaic sun energy to support the hospital services in Havana. Materials and methods: Was made a descriptive research about the benefits utilizing the photovoltaic sun energy to support the hospital services in Havana. As the orical methods were utilized the inductive–deductive, the comparative and the historical–logical. As empiric methods were used the document and bibliographic research and the arithmetic calculus. Results: If these hospitals considered should install 5000 photovoltaic cell, they should generate 236.25 MW during 350 days at year. This electricity represents the substitution of 65677.5 MT of this fossil fuel annually. Conclusions: Photovoltaic sun energy shows several benefits for developing countries in tropical zones as Cuba. The example showed before should be taken account in health systems of tropical countries as example to reduce the health services costs and increase the patient satisfaction too.
