“ We believe coal can be utilized more responsibly and offers stability in places where the weather fluctuates significantly between rainy and dry seasons . While Guatemala enjoys relatively stable weather , we do encounter heavy rainfall
variations . Thus , having various energy sources and processing technologies is crucial for guaranteeing the stability of Guatemala ’ s energy generation . Similarly , we view gas as a viable option that is more environmentally friendly than coal , albeit it does not complement bagasse as well . When comparing the carbon balance between bagasse and coal versus gas , bagasse and coal are likely to emit less carbon . Nonetheless , gas technology is promising , and we are exploring opportunities to incorporate it into our energy matrix ,” Jorge ends .
Magdalena is a shining example of a circular economy in action , leveraging renewable energy to power the nation ’ s grid and drive sustainable development . ■
