Guantanamo.- The University of Guantánamo (UG) hosted the first renewable energy round of negotiations this week to promote the use of these technologies by some twenty state and private entities as an alternative to overcome the limitations stemming from the energy crisis affecting the country due to the intensification of hostility from the United States.
With the presence of top Party and Government officials from the municipalities and the province, more than one hundred managers, entrepreneurs of micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs), leaders of political and mass organizations, and other guests converged at the UG this Wednesday to build alliances regarding the use of renewable energy sources, a priority nationwide.
Yoel Pérez García, First Secretary of the Party in the province, in his opening remarks at the meeting, thanked each of the participants for attending this round of discussions, which also included guests from other provinces such as Villa Clara, along with a team from the Science and Technology Park, to share initiatives with social impact related to the use of renewable energy sources.
He added that among the proposals planned for this business round were the possibility of creating a community service and charging center and a retail store to sell affordable rechargeable products to the public.
Pérez García specified that the group included the private micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) Innova Solar, Villarse, and TCaribe, as well as the Information and Communications Company of the Ministry of Agriculture, self-employed worker Ariel Mustelier Vega, and representatives from the banking system and Copextel. All were ready to finalize contracts, negotiate loans, and explore other payment options to advance the transformation of the energy matrix in the province and each municipality.
