CLEAN, NON-POLLUTING ENERGY
Ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all
1 in 8 people still do not have access to electricity. In order to ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all, it is necessary to increase the use of renewable energy from 25 % today to 38 % in 2025.
ACCIONA is positioning itself as a key player in addressing the growth in energy demand while curbing the progress of global warming and promoting the transition to a decarbonized energy model.
CLIMATE ACTION
Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts
The generation and use of energy is responsible for 74 % of total greenhouse gas emissions in the world. This activity is the largest contributor to global warming. Investment in renewable energy, energy efficiency and other low carbon technologies will continue to be essential to meet the new needs of humanity and to minimise their negative impact on the environment.
ACCIONA considers the fight against climate change and its related effects to be a strategic priority. The Company is working to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions in order to contribute to the progress of society and respond to the main challenges of sustainable development in the areas of infrastructure, water and energy, leading the transition to a low-carbon economy.
ACCIONA is the energy efficiency manager for a large part of its supermarket chain. It collaborates with the customer to identify reforms to be carried out at its centres that improve the energy efficiency of consumer equipment: heating and cooling systems, positive and negative cold production, lighting systems, refrigeration cabinets, etc.
In addition, from the Control Center of Renewable Energy (CECOER), ACCIONA controls the energy consumption of the CAPRABO Group's centres in real time, contributing to improving the efficient use of energy.
ACCIONA also provides cleaning, maintenance and last-mile services in some of the chain's supermarkets, using electric vehicles for travel.
