Roat\u00e1n Electric Company, (RECO), is the energy service company for the tourist island of Roat\u00e1n, Bay Islands, located on the north coast of Honduras. RECO offers generation and distribution service to the most attractive tourist island in the country, providing service to the municipalities of Roatan and Santos Guardiola.<\/p>

The island is a tourist destination appreciated and known for its tropical beauty, with a natural diversity of marine fauna, reefs and a population of more than 60,000 inhabitants.<\/p>

Roat\u00e1n Electric Company was born in 1992, when the company was managed and led by the local community, under agreement and transfer of the congress of the Republic of Honduras.\u00a0\u00a0 It was in 2007 when the national electric company intervened and in 2008, the company assumed a new administration.<\/p>

With this, the company begins a process of major investment and growth in the generation and distribution systems; of course, the consequent development of the productive and commercial engine of the entire island.<\/p>

In 2017, the company inaugurated the LPG-based power plant, an innovative, technological and environmentally friendly generation system with an installed capacity of 28 megawatts. Among other projects, the company has the Trade Winds Energy wind farm, located in the Brass Hill area, which provides a generation of 3.9 MW.<\/p>

With a transition in the generation of clean energy RECO integrates new renewable energy projects to the energy matrix, recently it has the operation of the first solar park with a generation of 7 MW, an energy project with the highest technology integrating a battery system GEMS storage. The second park will soon be integrated, which will provide more energy generation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
