Exactly. It was "estimado" that gave me a problem here. I had thought about "back-up support", but it was an idea that was floating there and I was looking for a way to make it fit into the whole sentence/paragraph. Thank you both for taking the time! :)
TravellingTrans Nov 1, 2014:
@Helena I definitely would believe it :) At the end of the day it's a relatively subtle difference but I felt respaldo, being a noun in this sense, gave a different meaning. It all goes to the same concept, I just thought to give the translator an alternative view.
Helena Chavarria Nov 1, 2014:
@TravellingTrans Would you believe your suggestion is identical to what I was initially going to post. It was 'estimado' that made me change my mind.

Just a difference of opinion in what the end statement is regarding Helena's suggestion. I don't think the phrase is about a plan (the overall statement is a plan in itself) but the description of this specific aspect of the plan, i.e. mini-turbines in the river "with a back-up support system provided by photo-voltaic solar power " which is somewhat different in meaning from "plans to back up the system with solar photo-voltaic (PV) energy".

Relatively minor but its my alternative suggestion.

with plans to back up the system with solar photovoltaic (PV) energy

I think they're saying they plan to back up the system with solar PV energy.

Solar cells, also called photovoltaic (PV) cells by scientists, convert sunlight directly into electricity. PV gets its name from the process of converting light (photons) to electricity (voltage), which is called the PV effect. The PV effect was discovered in 1954, when scientists at Bell Telephone discovered that silicon (an element found in sand) created an electric charge when exposed to sunlight.

Photovoltaic systems use solar cells to capture the sun rays and convert that energy into electricity. Such systems allow homeowners to generate electricity in a clean, reliable, and quiet way that can offset the cost of future electricity costs and decrease their dependence on the energy grid.

I've come back to your question! How about, 'with a planned/plans to use a (solar) photovoltaic back-up system with the purpose of supplying electicity to a community service centre/center...'

La propuesta incluye elementos de capacitación y formación para comunidades, mejora en procesos de comunicación entre las personas técnicas comunitarias y responsables de las Unidades de EE.RR de las provincias amazónicas de Orellana y Sucumbíos, la creación de una herramienta de Sistema de Información Geográfica on-line transversal al seguimiento, y el refuerzo institucional, tanto en recursos como en procesos, de ambas unidades. Respecto a la promoción y facilitación de la aplicación de las energías renovables con las dos unidades involucradas, se trabajará para la consolidación de un proyecto piloto como alternativa novedosa en el país para la electrificación rural descentralizada, las pico-turbinas de río con un soporte de respaldo estimado con solar fotovoltaica.
