Lightup Borneo adalah NGO yang membantu orang asal di Sabah dan Sarawak supaya memperolehi bekalan eletrik dan lampu. Kami percaya kepunyaan bekalan elektrik dan lampu dapat membantu meraka memperolehi maklumat dan meningkatkan kesedaran mereka terhadap hak asasi sebagai orang asal dan rakyat Malaysia.

Cara Kami Membantu:
Cara untuk menjana kuasa elektrik adalah dengan menggunakan penjana mikro dan piko-hidro (micro- and pico-hydro generator). Air bertekanan tinggi yang mengalir dari paip PVC berdiameter besar (untuk menyalurkan air dari sungai, air terjun) memusingkan turbin roda (biasa menggunakan turbin Pelton) dan menjana elektrik. 8 unit penjana mikro-hidro telah dipasang di Borneo sejak tahun 2010, dengan 3 unit dipasangkan atas kerjasama dengan Barefoot Mercy. Selain daripada itu, 4 unit penjana piko-hidro yang berkuasa 0.5 kW telah dipasangkan. Apabial hujung tahun 2013 menjelang, 10 unit lagi akan juga dipasangkan!

Terdapat juga satu penjana hidro terapung telah dipasangkan di Long Pasia dan ujian serta kerja pembaikan sedang dijalankan. Jikalau berjaya, ia akan menjadi penjana hidro terapung yang pertama di Malaysia.

Kami Memerlukan Bantuan Anda!
Untuk meneruskan usaha Lightup Borneo, kami telah menyediakan page ini untuk menyampaikan maklumat, berita dan laporan kemas kini tentang Lightup Borneo dan penjana pico-hidro. Kami juga menggalakkan sesiapa yang berminat menjadi sukarelawan, memberi bantuan dari segi teknologi dan kewangan untuk menyertai kami.

Who We Are? Our Purpose?
A group that promotes access to electricity and lighting in Borneo’s vast interior where such basic amenities is absent in significant proportion. We believe lighting and electricity can help widen access to information and promote better understanding of people’s rights.

How We Do:
Micro- and pico-hydro generators have been used to generate electricity. High pressure water flow from large diameter PVC pipe (tapping river water, water flow at higher ground) rotates turbine wheel (usually Pelton turbine is used) and generates electricity. 8 units of micro-hydro generator have been installed in Borneo since 2010 with 3 units completed in co-operation with Barefoot Mercy. Besides that, 4 units of pico-hydro generator with an output of 0.5 kW have been installed. By the end of year 2013, 10 more units would be installed!

A floating hydro generator has also been installed in Long Pasia. A series of testing and improvement works has been carried out in the meantime. If succeeded, it would become the first working floating hydro generator in Malaysia.

We Need Your Help!
In order to continue our effort, we have created this page which provides information, news, reports and updates related to Lightup Borneo and hidro-generator. We welcome volunteers to go on missions to these villages, professional who can provide technical assistance, financial assistance and most importantly, great ideas!
