Foundation University continues to hold online classes and skeletal working schedules due to another surge of Covid - 19 cases in Dumaguete City. Government has again declared an extension of a Modified Enhanced Quarantine in the city.
In addition, the Philippines where Dumaguete City is at, was on the path of two of the strongest typhoons of 2020. Typhoon Rolly and Typhoon Ulysses. At the wake of both typhoons raging one after the other, long hours of power outages were a steady occurrence. Power generated from the solar panels has saved the university from experiencing such. This has led to continuous skeletal operations during the daytime while saving its electronic equipments and fixtures from damage.
There is a glimmer of hope for the university as it continues its strife to achieve its goal of being 100% solar powered not only to reduce electricity costs but by savng the environment by reducing the earth's carbon footprint.
