McDonald’s Guatemala and Enel Green Power: sustainability tastes better

McDonald’s Guatemala has turned to Enel Green Power and its hydroelectric power plants to provide 100% renewable energy to its chain of restaurants in Guatemala. The agreement will avoid the emission of 16,420 metric tons of CO2 each year.
