A delegation from the United States Embassy, headed by Ambassador James Brewster, visited the Punta Cana Macao Energy Consortium Plant to learn about its operations and the new energy system that uses the energy released during the operation of the plant to produce hot water, steam and ice sold to hotels in the area.
The Ambassador said that he was very impressed by the performance indicators at the plant as they comply with international standards. The plant’s operation is recognized by the Regional Integrated Energy Commission (CIER) as the third best electricity distribution company in Latin America and the Caribbean.
Brewster, who was received at the plant by the executive director, Roberto Herrera, said that the plant donated electricity to all the public schools in the area, thus making a contribution to the development of the Bavaro and Punta Cana tourism area.
