Benchmarking sustainability in wind energy : Case study: Corani S.A.
Over the years, wind has proven to be a sustainable energy source. Its rapid deployment has increased the attention of stakeholders. More importantly, its capacity to generate clean energy triggers larger investments in the industry. Bolivia has begun the operations of wind energy to participate in the wind energy industry. Hence, a benchmarking study for Corani is of great significance on a national level. This thesis adopts a combination of theories to research Bolivia and Denmark. The main theoretical framework is based on benchmarking and sustainable development. Benchmarking helps to find superior performance in the market, while sustainable development supports the theory with key aspects that affect the livelihood within environment. In this thesis, sector benchmarking and best-practice benchmarking are adopted. Furthermore, theory of innovation management also supports the research. Corani S.A. is in charge of wind energy development in Bolivia. The focus of wind energy is to provide a clean source of energy to the locals. Thus, the thesis benchmarks focus areas: governmental decisions, price of energy and reliability. The findings of this thesis show that forming ambitious long-term strategies lead to the forefront of the industry as well as engagement of stakeholders. In addition, involvement of local personnel has driven the industry to prosper, and increase opportunities in economic growth.
