Energy-Saving Project
Panama - Panama is
implementing the
energy-saving project "Operacion
Bombillo" (Operation
Bulb) in this capital,
which is aimed at
substituting six million
power-saving lamps for
incandescent bulbs.
Specialized personnel
will replace up to ten
incandescent bulbs per
household free of charge
during the first stage
of the project.
Sources from the
Ministry of Energy
pointed out that a
second batch of
power-saving bulbs will
arrive in the country
early next year to
spread the program to
the rest of the country.
The campaign resulted
from a cooperation
agreement with Cuba,
which will supply
logistic support and
expertise to carry out
the project, which has
been implemented
successfully in other
countries. |
