Blumar signs 4-year renewable energy PPA with Enel in Chile

The multinational fishing and aquaculture company Blumar Seafoods and its subsidiaries PacificBlu, St. Andrews and Frío Pacífico, announced that they will use 100% clean energy from renewable sources, such as wind, solar, geothermal and hydroelectric, in their production processes.

To this end, they signed a power supply agreement (PPA) with the Chilean company Enel Generación, after a bidding process carried out by the consulting firm MatchEnergía. The contract will run for 4 years, for an estimated total annual generation of 72 GWh.

The milestone involves the companies obtaining a green certification and seal from I-REC (International Renewable Energy Certificates), which among other benefits will bring: energy traceability; certification of origin and ownership; minimisation of environmental and social impact; sustainability management with a model in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), specifically goal 13 “Climate Action”.
