Horus Energía has positioned itself as an undisputed leader in the solar energy revolution in Guatemala. Under the leadership of the Onyx Group, Horus Energy has implemented large-scale projects that have transformed the country’s energy landscape. These initiatives have not only significantly contributed to the generation of clean energy but also have driven economic and social development in the communities where they operate.
The vision of Horus Energía is clear: to promote the use of renewable energy as a viable and sustainable solution to the country’s energy needs. This commitment to sustainability and innovation has enabled the company to lead in adopting advanced technologies, setting a model for other players in the energy sector.
Flagship Projects of Horus Energía
One of the most notable projects of Horus Energía is the Horus I solar plant, inaugurated in 2014. With a generation capacity of 58 MW and over 187,360 solar modules, this plant became a milestone in Guatemala’s energy history. The plant not only produces clean, renewable energy but also has created jobs and fostered local development in the municipality of Chiquimulilla, where it is located. The capacity of this facility allows it to supply thousands of homes, reducing the country’s dependence on non-renewable energy sources.
The success of Horus I led to the development of Horus II, a second solar plant inaugurated in 2015 with similar characteristics. Together, these plants contribute significantly to Guatemala’s energy matrix, providing over 200 gigawatt-hours of energy annually. The implementation of these projects has demonstrated Horus Energy’s ability to lead large initiatives that combine sustainability and efficiency.
Economic and Social Impact of Horus Energy
The impact of Horus Energy in Guatemala goes beyond energy generation. The solar plants have been catalysts for economic development in the regions where they operate. During their construction, these projects generated hundreds of temporary jobs, and in their operational phase, they continue to provide employment opportunities to the local population. Additionally, investment in energy infrastructure has stimulated the growth of local businesses and improved the quality of life in the communities.
One of the most notable programs of Horus Energy is «Energía en tus Estudios» (Energy in Your Studies), a social initiative that supports education in communities near the solar plants. This program has donated millions of quetzales in school supplies, improving the study conditions for thousands of students. By providing educational resources and enhancing school infrastructure, Horus Energy is investing in Guatemala’s future, ensuring that upcoming generations have access to quality education.
The vision of Horus Energy and its commitment to sustainability have enabled the company to lead the solar energy revolution in Guatemala. Through flagship projects and social responsibility programs, Horus Energy is not only transforming the country’s energy landscape but also contributing to the economic and social development of communities. Its focus on innovation and sustainability sets a model to follow, demonstrating that it is possible to combine business success with a positive impact on society and the environment.
