Sustainability

 

At B. Fernández & Hnos. We reaffirm our commitment to the environment by adopting green energy to reduce our carbon footprint. Our facilities have solar panels that generate 43% of the company's annual electricity consumption, one of the most significant private renewable energy projects in Puerto Rico.

 
The photovoltaic project, which generates 1 megawatt or 1 million kilowatt-hours of electricity each year, began operating in December 2015.
 

This project involved installing 4,160 solar panels on the roof of the central warehouse in Luchetti Industrial Park, Bayamon, including the executive parking lot, for a total of 200,000 square feet of the surface.

The project included replacement and investment in high-efficiency cooling (inverters) and LED lighting.
