The first Solar Generation project in Vitro was successfully launched, located on the roof of Coater 8 in Mexicali, Baja California

On December 18, the first Solar Generation project in Vitro was successfully launched, located on the roof of Coater 8 in Mexicali, Baja California; It is a system of 1,135 solar panels of 550 W each, whose total installed generation capacity is 629 kW, which will allow the generation of 1,091,700 kWh/year of renewable energy that will be consumed within the same plant. This project will mitigate the emission of 478 tons of CO2 annually, equivalent to planting 39,800 trees to reduce the same impact.
