CLEAN WATER AND SANITATION
Ensure access to water and sanitation for all
Over 2,000 million people in the world live without access to a basic drinking water service, and 3,6 billionhave no access to a basic sanitation service, resulting in avoidable deaths, chronic disease, fewer hours of education and low productivity.
ACCIONA has positioned itself as a key player in the water treatment sector. Its innovative management seeks to resolve the challenges with respect to the shortage of water resources.
CLIMATE ACTION
Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts
The generation and use of energy accounts for 35 % 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 emerging needs of humanity and to minimize their negative impact on the environment.
ACCIONA considers the fight against climate change and its effects to be a strategic priority. The company works 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.
With the aim of improving service quality and customer satisfaction, Acciona has launched a project since the award of the contract in 2014 to optimize the management of the integral water cycle that yields significant environmental benefits, such as the reduction of water consumption, energy consumption and CO 2 emissions into the atmosphere thanks to the implementation of new technologies and the improvement of organizational and production processes.
ACCIONA's water division is present in Castilla-La Mancha, where it manages services in Manzanares and several water treatment plants such as Cabanillas del Campo (Guadalajara), Seseña (Toledo), Tarancón (Cuenca) and Villarobledo (Albacete).
ACCIONA considers that the contract allows it to "consolidate" its presence in the province of Ciudad Real, and also to contribute to the sustainability of the Tablas de Daimiel National Park.
