Decarbonizing Colombia II

Direct:

• Contribution to the decarbonization in Colombia, avoiding CO2 emission: with a clean energy production of 265,6 MWh per year, both solar installations will avoid the emission of 103,4 tons of CO2 every year. That is equivalent to planting 4699 trees. The Laboratorios Aseptic is responsible, alone, for the reduction of emissions equivalent to 4285 trees.

Indirect:

• Promotion of the local economy: By reducing the costs of the energy of the two local businesses, this project contributes to sustaining the local economy in Tenjo and in Barranquilla, Colombia.
• Promotion of responsible businesses in Colombia: beyond reducing their carbon footprint through the installation of solar energy systems, the restaurant El Tambor and Laboratorios Aseptic are committed to responsible business practices. The restaurant El Tambor is eco-friendly, and uses, for its food delivery system, only 100% reusable, biodegradable, and recycled materials. The Aseptic labs are certified with the good manufacturing practices (Buenas Prácticas de Manufactura) seal by Invima, the Colombian National Food and Drug Surveillance Institute.
• Promotion of a transition towards sustainable and efficient resource use: installing a solar plant in a health, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic company as Laboratorios Aseptic is an example of the applicability of solar power for bigger businesses, setting a benchmark for this segment in Colombia.
