Renewable Energy

Everyone who appreciates alcohols will learn about Bacardi Cuba. They are not only good at producing good drinks; they are good in taking leads to protect the environment as well. One of the great efforts is to reduce the usage of non-renewable energy such as fossil fuels in the production chain.

Recently, Bacardi Cuba has announced about their wind turbine installation project in their production centre. The wind energy is going to be used for powering the company’s distillery near San Juan, replacing the use of fossil fuel as used before this in the production centre. This year around, the visitors to the centre will not only learn about the production process, but also to learn and be impressed by the company’s effort in utilizing the wind energy in their production process, especially the technology involved and the size of the turbines constructed.

Bacardi Cuba has shown a great example in leading the nation in corporate responsibility and environmental progress. Through installing the wind turbines, the company is able to help the nation to reduce the carbon footprint thus helping to protect the environment. The usage of the wind energy can help the nation to reduce the CO2 production every year by half of the original volume.

Besides, the company also shows that while protecting the environment, their business can be run as usual and in fact better due to positive public impression towards the company this the products will be highly supported by the people. Hopefully through this initiative, all the organizations can be encouraged and more serious actions can be taken towards living in a greener world.

As everyone takes part, little contribution can lead to great achievements when everyone’s efforts are combined together. Let us work together in making this world a greater place to live in! Have you started your part?
