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.

Inaugurated on 6 October 2013, it consists of twenty wind turbines totalling 30 MW of power, capable of supplying energy equivalent to the consumption of some 30,000 Croatian households annually.

Located in the region of Split-Dalmatia, Jelinak was inaugurated on October 6th 2013 by Croatian President, Ivo Josipović. It consists of twenty AW1500 wind turbines of ACCIONA Windpower technology representing a total capacity of 30 MW, able to generate electricity equivalent to the consumption of around 30,000 Croatian homes per year. ACCIONA was the first Spanish wind power developer to open a wind farm in the country.
