The Haina Electricity Generating Company (EGE Haina) celebrated its twenty-fifth anniversary in an activity where its history of investment in sustainable energy in the Dominican Republic was highlighted.
The evolution of EGE Haina has been driven by an investment that exceeds US$1.5 billion in electricity generation plants. Added to this figure are the US$1.13 billion that the company has contributed to the Dominican State in dividends and taxes between 1999 and 2023.
In the central words of the celebration event, Luis Mejía Brachevice president of EGE Haina, highlighted that since 2011 the company has developed 12 projects that have added nearly 900 megawatts (MW) to the national electrical grid, which represents 73% of EGE Haina’s current capacity, which is 1,220 MW.
In this context, Mejía Brache highlighted the transformation of the generation matrix towards a more diverse and sustainable one as one of the most important achievements.
“Renewable energies now lead our generation capacity, representing 38%. “This reflects our commitment to reducing our carbon footprint and protecting our environment,” he said.
