Our Personal Responsibility

Doing this properly, or not at all

At My Energy we are committed to operating our business in a responsible and sustainable manner that positively impacts the environment, society and every stakeholder involved. We recognise the importance of addressing Environmental, Social and Governance factors, and of meeting our Corporate Social Responsibility obligations.

The catalyst for our move from a private company running its own development projects into the public realm was a request from President Luis Guillermo Solis, then President of Costa Rica. His concept of a multi-dimensional sustainable future struck a chord with our team, and became the spark that drove us forward. That thinking now shapes how we work in every market we operate in, including this one.

Make an impact

We understand that environmental sustainability is crucial for the well-being of our planet and future generations. We are dedicated to minimising our ecological footprint by promoting energy efficiency, reducing waste and conserving natural resources. We continuously seek innovative solutions to develop and deliver clean, renewable energy products and services that help mitigate climate change and promote a low-greenhouse-gas economy. We monitor and manage our environmental impact throughout our operations and supply chain, striving for the highest standards of environmental stewardship.

Social responsibility

We believe in fostering a diverse and safe work environment for our employees. We are committed to promoting equality and diversity, ensuring that all individuals are treated with respect, dignity and fairness. We prioritise our employees' well-being and professional development by providing a supportive workplace culture, opportunities for growth and work-life balance. We engage with local communities and aim to make a positive difference by supporting initiatives that enhance education, health and social well-being.

Society development support

We have developed a referral and finance model that allows anyone, anywhere, to participate in the profit end of our business. This was one of the central tenets of the company from the beginning. We saw that other companies in the sector profited greatly from their growth yet made minimal impact on the society around them in the financial realm, beyond solar energy savings. We actively expand this programme in every sector of society, working toward a network of solar ambassadors all earning a side income from the benefits of renewable energy.

In The Bahamas this matters twice over. My Energy Bahamas is wholly Bahamian owned, so the value created here stays here. You can read more on our about page, or take part through our referral programme.

Governance and ethics

We uphold the highest standards of corporate governance, transparency and ethical conduct throughout our organisation. We are committed to maintaining a strong governance framework that promotes accountability, integrity and responsible decision-making. Our Board of Directors and management team ensure effective oversight, risk management and compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. We foster an environment that encourages open communication, ethical behaviour and the reporting of any concerns related to governance or compliance.

Measurement and reporting

We are committed to measuring and monitoring our progress on ESG and CSR matters. We regularly assess our performance, set ambitious targets, and report transparently on our achievements and our challenges. By embracing industry best practices and engaging with external stakeholders, we strive for continuous improvement and aim to be a leader in sustainability and corporate responsibility.

Data privacy

We respect our clients' right to data privacy and have implemented measures to safeguard their data. We adhere to all applicable data protection laws and regulations, and operate a data privacy management system aligned with industry best practices. Full details are set out in our privacy policy.
