HARNESSING SUSTAINABILITY WITH THE INTEGRATION COEFFICIENT IC The ecological footprint is a way of measuring the impact that humanity has on the planet. It is the ecologically productive surface area needed to produce the resources consumed by an individual, as well as the area necessary to absorb the waste it generates. The ecological footprint takes into account all lifestyle factors, whether or not they emit greenhouse gases (CO2), which are harmful to the environment and is used as an international sustainability indicator to measure the impact of our habits. It is expressed in global hectares (hag). Thus, on average, a European would need 4.5 hga, while a North American would need 6.6 hga and an African 2.7. But more important is the average by region. By 2021, the 5 countries with the largest ecological footprint in hga were China, 5.2 billion; U.S, 2.6 billion; India, 1.5 billion; Russia, 740 million and Brazil 580 million. Meanwhile, the total ecological footprint of the EU (as a whole) was 2.3 billion reaching the 3rd place compared to the other countries, with Spain contributing with 187 million. Although China has a total ecological footprint twice as large as that of the U.S and EU, the ecological footprint per person of the U.S and EU is much larger because China has more population than U.S and EU, which which means that consumption per person in the U.S and EU is much higher. Each region contributes “to environmental deterioration” in different ways: the pronounced growth of the ecological footprint in China responds mainly to carbon dioxide emissions and the ecological footprint of farmland. Brazil has one of the largest biocapacity reserves in the world, however, it has decreased steadily in recent decades, while the demand for raw materials at the national and international level has increased. Russia ecological footprint has decreased as the result of partial de-industrialization derived from the dissolution of the USSR and the decrease in the use of coal. Despite this, Russia's per capita ecological footprint remains considerably higher than the world's average per capita biocapacity. By 2023, the Global Footprint Network estimated humanity's ecological footprint on 1.71 planet Earths, indicating that humanity's demands were 1.71 times more than what was renewing the planet's ecosystems. In recent decades, human development has advanced at the expense of the planet. We need to make changes on balancing our ecological impact if prosperity is to be achieved for all within the boundaries of our planet. To do this, it is essential to change our lifestyle, adopting new habits such as: optimizing energy consumption, installing on grid, in grid or hybrid solar systems in your home or business while opting for a green energy company that also embraces the advantages of our Integration Coefficient IC that improves the efficiency of the supply chain, recycling and giving a new life to materials, reducing the consumption of meat and plastic and transporting yourself sustainably. Let's do it together. Please Contact Us for more information.

WORK-LIFE BALANCE AS THE KEY FACTOR OF SUCCESS In a community of successful entrepreneurs, chances are you love what you do for a living. And while the path may be blurry, there's a big difference between hard work and being a workaholic. When you are in the process of building something big, sometimes you forget to think about yourself. Many have this typical agenda: You know the plan; sitting many hours a week, almost blind from staring at the computer screen hour after hour. And while you think you're sacrificing everything for the sake of this incredible project that's putting you out there in the world, the truth is that your best work will not only come when you have your best professional results, but also at your personal best. And believe me, our best ideas come from our best personal moments and the great work-life balance we have developed. An example: On a wonderful walk with my beautiful wife through the forests of the stunning city of Sisters in Oregon, we stopped for a few moments when my wife insisted that she should practice an “Arbotherapy” session. How so? I asked her. And she explains to me the benefits of hugging (literally) trees for mental and physical health and then invited me to hug a large tree in the forest together, holding hands, “creating an infinite circle of great energy transfer between the forest and us”. We spent about 10 minutes in the process and my daughter took a photo of us. It was truly the best and most relaxing part of the evening. And from this experience this publication emerged: From Arbotherapy to ICTherapy. We really didn't know, even according to scientific research, that hugging trees can improve your physical and mental health. Arbotherapy has been shown to be effective in reducing pain, blood pressure and promoting emotional well-being. But what if we told you there was an even more powerful therapy? Arbotherapy teaches us that nature has a positive impact on our physical and emotional health. By hugging a tree, we absorb its energy, promoting healing and inner balance. On the other hand, the Integration Coefficient IC offers a holistic solution for businesses, addressing challenges from factory management to logistics and customer satisfaction. By implementing IC, companies can optimize their operations, reduce costs and improve supply chain efficiency. If you “hug” the IC you will feel the same in your business as people do when they hug a tree. Just as arbotherapy promotes connection with nature, IC-therapy encourages connection between all aspects of a business. From production to delivery, IC creates a synergy that drives business success and sustainability. Imagine a world where businesses thrive just as people do by hugging trees. With Arbotherapy and IC-therapy, we can create a healthier and more balanced future for everyone. Join the corporate harmony revolution and embrace IC-therapy today.

A NEW TENDENCY: RISE OF SHARED SELF-CONSUMPTION Community Solar has become a popular form of electricity consumption due to its ease of accessibility. Unlike traditional solar panel installations that must be located on an open property or rooftop space, community solar is designed for large-scale use among multiple tenants. Traditionally, solar energy installation favored real estate owners and investors, leaving renters and low-income households without access to the benefits of solar. However, community solar is reshaping the landscape, offering more customers the opportunity to adopt and benefit from solar energy. Community Solar is a model that allows multiple people, businesses or organizations to harness solar energy without the need for individual panel installations. It is typically offered through subscription-based programs, expanding access to a broader range of customers, including renters or those without adequate shelter. Beyond the environmental benefits, participants generally obtain savings in energy costs, which currently in the USA are around 10%. 22 states in the USA have passed laws on independent community solar projects. Despite the challenges that states like Massachusetts and Maine faced in 2022, recent favorable policies in Maryland, New Jersey, and California have spurred growth. Projections in the USA indicate an average annual increase of 8% with an estimated capacity of 14 gigawatts by 2028 and community solar is forecast to power 5 million homes by 2025, making clean, affordable electricity more accessible for all. In Spain and Italy, finally, in 2024, energy communities, solar communities and collective self-consumption will begin to take off. And this after the utilities had created many obstacles, greatly delaying network connections and other types of problems. The reason? Their large electrification plants were doing the work and were installing many energy communities, solar communities and collective self-consumption. And things were going well there. Now a change has been imposed, because the sector associations have put a lot of pressure on the utilities and today they are providing connections when needed, facilitating the new installations. In addition, super interesting financing and innovative methods are being obtained to carry out these installations for the residents of a community (solar kits). This is where our Integration Coefficient IC model comes from through our solar marketing system based on the concept of shared economy that allows solar installers, who are the part of the supply chain closest to the end customer, to have direct access to Asian manufacturing prices and therefore with price reductions of up to 60% compared to the current supply chain. As conclusion, the positive policy developments supporting the installation of more community solar parks and a more efficient supply chain by adopting our Integration Coefficient IC model, make this type of installation a safe bet for solar deployment.

GAINS VISION: SHORT-TERM VS. LONG TERM AND FOCUS LOST In a shocking turn, Holaluz and Solarprofit, big solar companies in Spain, announced the mass layoff of 30% of employees. The economic maelstrom is not new, but the reasons behind this move offer a critical lesson in how companies confront the challenges of the solar market. This analysis, based on an article by Xataka (November 2023), sheds light on the strategies that led to this turning point. Both companies point to the reduction in the electricity bill and increases in bank interest as the main causes of their problems. However, digging deeper reveals a fundamental disconnect between the pursuit of short-term profits and long-term sustainability. The action of having opted for the strategy of internalizing its solar installation services, thus cutting contracts with external companies or freelancers, apparently to improve margins, has turned out to be counterproductive. Instead of transferring those savings to the end customers, they only sought to keep the "profit" of the external installers. This voracity for short-term profits has led to poor adaptation to an ever-changing market. The disconnect between the need for immediate profitability and creating a sustainable base has resulted in mass layoffs. In a market that demands sustainability, companies are paying the price for focusing on short-term profits instead of building long-term relationships with their customers. The race to reduce the electricity bill has become a marathon, not a sprint, and many companies, caught in the trap of immediate profitability, are falling behind. In contrast, when the Integration Coefficient IC is adopted, companies are demonstrating resistance. IC is more than a business strategy; It's a mindset that puts the customer first and embraces sustainability. While Holaluz and Solarprofit struggle with layoffs, or better say when, in general and worldwide, solar business shake up, companies with IC adopted seek to maintain efficient and collaborative supply chains. The Integration Coefficient IC advocates collaboration and specialization, allowing each link in the supply chain to shine in what they do best. The IC also exposes the fallacy of thinking that payroll growth can equal market growth. Supply chain efficiency, not payroll size, is key. Outsourcing specialized services allows for adaptability and specialization. This situation is not only an economic setback; It is a wake-up call. Greed for short-term profits and lack of long-term vision have led these companies to a crossroads. The lesson is clear: those who prioritize sustainability and customer satisfaction are the ones who will weather the economic storms and create a lasting halo in the minds of their customers, preventing them from getting caught in a monkey trap.

AN INTEGRATION COEFFICIENT IC APPROACH When seeking to offer integrated solutions like, for example, Greenhouse Solar Power Systems, adapted to specific needs, as we do through the Integration Coefficient IC, it is necessary to get the supply chain channels used to offer solar solutions that can grow the prestige of their businesses, which they can add something unique to the current solar solutions that they offer to their market until now and that they can reach a significant number of clients or economic sectors in their region to convert them into “anti-pollution” centers and thus promote environmental sustainability. Businesses oriented to volume but with innovation and intelligence. In this sense, Greenhouses constitute a segment in itself worth taking into account for solar business development using both, ongrid and/or hybrid installations. These greenhouses are typically human constructions that, due to their high density of use, can be seen from space as a dense white zone that, for example, only in Almería, Andalusia, Spain, is equivalent to an area of 100,000 soccer fields, that is, about 30,000 hectares. According to measurements made by the Andalusian Energy Agency, the average radiation at its La Mojonera station (Almería), on a surface with an inclination of 35 degrees, which is what the “roofs” of the most common greenhouses in this area usually have, is 180.8 kWh per square meter. Taking advantage of only 5 percent of that radiation, an efficiency applied for the moment to the new kind of flexible transparent solar panels, for one year an electrical energy of 31,366 million megawatt hours would be obtained. With this generation, three quarters of the energy needs of all of Andalusia would be covered. The previous calculations have been made based on data obtained from the Andalusian Energy Agency, the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Rural Development of the “Junta de Andalucía”, the Ministry of Industry, Energy and Tourism, the National Institute of Statistics, the University of Michigan and the Institute of Statistics and Cartography of Andalusia. Researchers from the University of Almería state in a publication in the scientific journal “Energies” that if the roof of the greenhouses in Almería, Murcia and Granada had solar panels, 31% of Spain's energy needs could be generated (even with transparent flexible panels of 5% efficiency). The study also points out how the profitability of agricultural operations under plastic could be increased by generating solar energy. It is estimated that by using BIVP type solar panels whose efficiency is similar to those of current panels, close to 20%, that is 4 times more than what is available for new flexible panels of maximum transparency, that, although they are not completely transparent, some studies and even installations of the same type in other countries have shown that they are very suitable for the application without any risk for the plants growth. We invite solar installers in that region, and of course, anyone else interested, to subscribe to our website for more information.

THE STORY OF VALENTINE'S DAY AND THE INTEGRATION COEFFICIENT IC In the background of the story of Valentine's Day is an act of bravery and love, but also a fight against the blindness of power. In the days of the Roman Empire, Emperor Claudius II prohibited marriage between soldiers, believing that being single would increase his bravery. This policy, although “well-intentioned”, ultimately undermined the cohesion and morale of the army. Valentine defied Claudius II's ban, ignoring the rules and uniting couples in marriage under the blessing of the church. His passion for love and commitment led him to pay the final price, being stoned and beheaded on February 14, 270 AD. His legacy, however, continues on Valentine's Day, a reminder of the power of love over adversity. Similarly, today, the solar industry faces challenges derived from decisions blinded by the perspective of immediate profit: the decapitation of the solar market. Investing in more efficient solar panel technologies, without considering that secondary costs such as supply chain inefficiencies, installation expenses, administration and other factors overshadow any improvement in panel efficiency against any attempt to the achievement of an efficient market. This is where the Integration Coefficient IC comes into play. Just as Valentine united couples in marriage, the IC seeks to unite all elements of the solar supply chain in an integrated and efficient approach. In today's business world, the Integration Coefficient IC is our tool to challenge blind business practices and unify the solar supply chain. We promote intelligent designs of solar systems (kits) and distribution models that maximize supply chain efficiency, reducing secondary costs and bringing consumers closer to factories. Love’s Day or "Valentine's Day" is one of the most promoted celebrations after Christmas. On February 14th, couples around the world pamper each other with gifts, words of appreciation and romantic plans that nourish the relationship. And our organization, on this important Day wants to honor the legacy of Saint Valentine and reminds you that love and the courage to be disruptive can change the world, even in the business field. Join us by subscribing to our website in our commitment to a brighter and more sustainable future, where energy efficiency and care for the environment are our guiding principles.

KISSINGER'S ANECDOTE AND THE INTEGRATION COEFFICIENT IC In the corridors of government diplomacy, tension was woven with coded words and meticulous documents. Winston Lord, assistant secretary of state, was immersed in writing a report for his superior, the famous Henry Kissinger. An arduous task, but Lord sought perfection. Every attempt to impress his boss was followed by a simple question: "Is this the best you can do?" Kissinger always asked. Frustration grew in Lord, and on the third try, the explosion was imminent. "Yes, damn it, this is the best I can offer!" Lord exclaimed. Kissinger, unfazed, responded: "Well, then this time I will read it." The lesson stood out: In the maelstrom of excellence, only the extraordinary deserves attention. Kissinger was always looking for a direct path from challenged reports to brilliant solutions. Just as Lord and Kissinger sought perfection, each in their own way, we are faced with the constant challenge of improving ourselves. As artisans of the Integration Coefficient IC, we do not settle for mediocrity. Like Lord and Kissinger, we seek exceptional results. In the world of solar, LED, power quality and electrical backup, we face our own questions. Are our solutions the best we can offer? Are we achieving perfection in factory-to-market integration, unified warranty, supporting digital ecosystems, high ROI, attractive pricing, and customer satisfaction? Are our market analysis deep enough to help factories and customers design the best solutions? Are our proposals in line with the macro objective of sustainability? Kissinger's anecdote guides us. We are not happy with being “cooks” of known recipes. We seek the mastery of a chef, exploring, innovating and leading with the IC as the baton. We immerse ourselves in an endless cycle of continuous improvement, challenging complacency. And of course to the competition. In a world where sustainability is vital, the Integration Coefficient IC is not just a tool, it is our philosophy. Like Lord and Kissinger, we strive to present the exceptional, not the ordinary. The story of two men in the corridors of power is ours, but we wrote a script where sustainability and innovation are the stars. Let this nice anecdote from Kissinger be an inspiration: in a sea of mundane reports typical of the competition, let us stand out as a report that will be read, as a long-term commitment that does not go unnoticed, like a well-conducted melody by the IC that resonates in the constant search for the exceptional.

A COMPARISON UNDER THE SUSTAINABILITY ORIENTATION OF OUR INTEGRATION COEFFICIENT IC Our All in One Real Specifications Solar LED lighting systems are cost-effective, sustainable, and reliable. Each system operates off-grid, so our solar lights continue to shine during power outages. In addition to our fully customizable products, our factories have created a remote control system that gives users greater freedom and flexibility over their lighting systems allowing you to adjust brightness settings, set various lighting programs per day, activate your device's motion detector, and more. Furthermore, we can describe additional benefits as durable components built to withstand extreme weather, sustainable and renewable resource, our specially designed light fixtures that also reduce commercial light pollution and are Dark Sky friendly, effective in remote locations and reduced maintenance costs, among other features, making solar-powered street lights outperform traditional lighting systems in several key areas, including security, cost-effectiveness, and sustainability. But let's compare solar vs AC grid LED street lighting. Solar-powered All in One Solar Real Specifications Solar LED street lamps are more cost-effective than their traditional LED lighting counterparts. Traditional lighting requires trenching and underground wiring to connect to power grids. Solar lighting is autonomous and off-grid, significantly reducing the total cost of installation. Furthermore, solar lighting harnesses power directly from the sun, cutting out the power company completely. Because solar lights reside off the main power grid, they can be relied on to continue to shine even when the electrical grid goes dark or does not exist, providing public spaces, road security, military facilities, and corporate campuses with better security and dependability. Solar lights improve communities by reducing pollution. Traditional street lights emit carbon dioxide and contribute to greenhouse gas buildup in the atmosphere, but solar street lights help significantly reduce these harmful pollutants. Finally, solar street lights require less maintenance than traditional lights. Traditional lighting fixtures may need to be replaced every five to ten years, but our durable solar lighting systems are built to last even more. Other than occasional panel cleaning and battery replacement every ten years, solar lighting systems need very little upkeep. The facts described in this post under the sustainability orientation of our Integration Coefficient IC have been written to open a technical and marketing discussion where we invite all of you to comment about it and also to subscribe to our website.
