Introduction: The growth of the productive activity at world level has generated great concern for including in the engineering activity new alternatives that favour the sustainability of diverse sectors. Analyze the various alternatives for power generation that can implement industries and their advantages. Methodology: Qualitative/explicative study, which, supported by a literature review, gathers information from the last five years, to give shape to a document that is easy to consult. Findings: The study derives a range of alternatives that can contribute to business plans and all stakeholders in the energy issue. Conclusions: There are several options that each organization currently has to explore in energy issues; each industry can be guided by the alternative that according to its social purpose can offer the best benefits.

Introduction: The growth of the productive activity at world level has generated great concern for including in the engineering activity new alternatives that favour the sustainability of diverse sectors. Analyze the various alternatives for power generation that can implement industries and their advantages. Methodology: Qualitative/explicative study, which, supported by a literature review, gathers information from the last five years, to give shape to a document that is easy to consult. Findings: The study derives a range of alternatives that can contribute to business plans and all stakeholders in the energy issue. Conclusions: There are several options that each organization currently has to explore in energy issues; each industry can be guided by the alternative that according to its social purpose can offer the best benefits.
