The Copextel subsidiary in Holguín is working on developing solar-based electrical backup systems to ensure the continuity of essential services, such as medical care and banking transactions, contributing to the transformation of the country’s energy matrix.
George Aguilera Proenza, head of the Project group, said that they design photovoltaic systems for production and service institutions, ensuring they can maintain operations amid the complex electricity situation the country is experiencing.
Among the entities for which they are developing these projects are the Frank País International Airport, the fishing sector, and the Banco Popular de Ahorro, with which they plan to install panels in several branches.
Beneficiaries include the Frank País International Airport, the fishing sector, and the Banco Popular de Ahorro, where solar panels are planned for several branches to prioritize power supply to ATMs and teller windows, preventing service interruptions for pensioners and social assistance recipients, he noted
The subsidiary participates in social welfare programs such as the Former project, which promotes women’s leadership in the renewable energy sector, assisting in the installation of isolated solar systems in hard-to-reach areas of various municipalities.
Aguilera Proenza added that they also install grid injection and lightning protection systems, including grounding systems, which are essential for the safety of power plants in open areas.
In 2025, Copextel's subsidiary in Holguín contributed to the construction of the Corúa Cinco photovoltaic parks in Mayarí; Providencia, in the main municipality; and La Caridad-Potrerillo, in Rafael Freyre, with a capacity of 21.8 megawatts each. These projects help reduce dependence on fossil fuels and strengthen national generation.
