Central Romana Services
Central Romana carries out a service program dedicated exclusively to providing all kinds of services to its companies and subsidiaries, as well as a large majority of the La Romana community.
For Central Romana, serving is a way to give back and a duty that every group must assume. Therefore, it spares no effort and seizes every opportunity to make a contribution that can benefit the community and improve the quality of life for the people in the area.
Central Romana Corporation Ltd. generates its own electricity with a 3 turbines and 9 generators system. The electric turbines are located in the sugar mill and generate electricity using steam from the sugar production.
The three turbines combined can generate 32 megawatts. Nine generators that use fuel oil # 6 and # 2 provide the rest of the electrical power. In total, Central Romana has a generating capacity of 67.5 megawatts. These services are offered both to the tourist part of the Central Romana as well as the industrial, except for the free zone.
Central Romana, concerned about the optimal use of water, a scarce resource in the eastern region, financed several comprehensive studies, including execution plans, conducted by well-known Dominican technicians. These studies were for the construction of the Duey and Sanate dams in the eastern region to make the best possible use of this limited resource. Similarly, it financed studies for the hydroelectric management of small waterfalls that are still available, awaiting a government initiative to take advantage of these studies.
Additionally, Central Romana supplies the city with its own aqueduct, built over 25 years ago, providing approximately 3,000 gallons of potable water per minute. This significantly contributes to meeting the population’s needs, as this supply covers around 40% of the consumed water. The aqueduct was constructed entirely at Central Romana’s expense. In addition, the company also provides electricity from its own generation plants to power the wells supplying water to the city’s aqueduct.
Today, crime poses a danger and can jeopardize public safety. Therefore, relying on the saying “prevention is better than cure,” Central Romana safeguards its facilities with security units 24 hours a day to ensure that everything is in order and that personnel are protected.
This gives rise to Guardianes Costasur, a security company with more than 700 guards providing services to our tourist and industrial facilities. The guards of Guardianes Costasur undergo training and education from international security firms to provide the best service.
