The Istiqlal Mosque Uses A Solar Panel System Facing Climate Change.

Workers are inspecting a solar panel system that provides partial electrical power to Istiqlal Mosque in Jakarta, Indonesia, on May 3, 2024. The Istiqlal Mosque is an example of a house of worship that is embracing the green building concept and utilizing solar panels as one source of electricity to meet its electricity needs. The management has installed 500 solar panels, which have lowered the mosque's power bill by 25 percent. With slow-flow faucets and a water recycling system, worshipers are using far less water to cleanse themselves before prayers.

For the first time, 30% of electricity produced worldwide is from clean energy sources as the number of solar and wind farms continues to grow rapidly. (Photo by Garry Lotulung/NurPhoto)
