ACCIONA helps transform cities into productive wellbeing spaces for living, promoting socio-economic development.
The company is committed to real estate development, supported by a range of complementary services, whose purpose is to design the sustainable cities of the future in complete harmony with environmental protection.
ACCIONA's real estate solutions focus on the promotion and management of real estate complexes, based on solid technical and professional experience in Spain, Poland, Mexico and Portugal. These solutions conceive a digital and sustainable future underpinned by the application of the most advanced technologies and efficient materials that respect the planet.
The company develops new opportunities for business diversification in line with the increased opening up of the market for non-residential real estate assets: offices, hotels and industrial properties. ACCIONA also undertakes projects for the urban and social regeneration of spaces, located at their origin on the outskirts of cities, which have been isolated in the urban nucleus as a result of population concentration.
ACCIONA's Business as Unusual approach is based on the design of eminently sustainable real estate projects in urbanisation. It examines innovative measures, not only in the area of energy savings and reduction of CO2 emissions, but also in terms of water footprint, life cycle analysis, the promotion of alternative modes of transport, accessibility and the health and comfort of occupants.
The result of how ACCIONA develops real estate projects is translated into world-renowned international sustainability standards. The Adelfas development was the first to obtain BREEAM "Muy Bueno" (Very Good) certification in Madrid in 2018, and is the largest real estate development in Spain with this certification. In 2019, the company acquired the Mesena office complex, a real estate project that aims to obtain LEED Gold environmental certification for the complex as a whole, with some of its buildings achieving LEED Platinum.
One of the company's primary objectives in the design of real estate solutions is the development of sustainable projects that contribute to the conservation of the environment and reduce costs for owners, with a commitment to environmentally friendly housing. ACCIONA also has ISO9001 and ISO14001 certifications and is committed to certifying all of its real estate developments with the BREEAM® sustainability label.
ACCIONA develops eco-efficiency technology through solutions such as home automation: technological applications that enable the efficient, safe and comfortable management of energy in the home. It also provides households with mechanisms such as solar panels for energy collection that heats water for domestic use; cross-ventilation, quality materials and insulation, and special carpentry with thermal bridge breakage that allow for greater thermal insulation; light, energy and solar-factor control glass; and presence detectors and timers in common areas.
The company also installs in its real estate projects systems to promote rational water consumption through separate systems of drainpipes, double discharge tanks, aerator taps and shutoff valves in wet rooms.
We formulate a new concept of office buildings, which we promote under the application of technology and through the use of quality materials and finishes. We create lasting, tailored relationships with our customers.
ACCIONA's real estate solutions currently cover luxury real estate development in Mexico and Spain. These hotels and holiday resorts are supported by the Home Resort concept, which offers the services and hospitality of a hotel to guests who wish to stay for extended periods in a safe environment.
ACCIONA promotes industrial projects for end users to market them to these users or real estate investors.
At ACCIONA Cultura we are experts in planning interior design projects, we create stimulating environments that value tradition and cultural heritage, spaces that are meaningful and inspiring to those who use them and the communities that play host to them.
We are involved in every step of the project — from the very first stage, to the final delivery. This demonstrates control over each operating action, coordinating the different disciplines involved in the design, development and execution with excellence.
We support the achievement United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals, which address the greatest challenges facing humanity.
Promote inclusive and sustainable economic growth, employment and decent work for all
The continuing lack of decent work opportunities, insufficient investment and low consumption lead to an erosion of the basic social contract underlying democratic societies: the right of all to share in progress. The creation of quality jobs remains a major challenge for almost all economies.
To achieve sustainable economic development, societies must create the conditions for people to have access to quality jobs, stimulating the economy without damaging the environment. There must also be employment opportunities for the entire working-age population, with decent working conditions.
Build resilient infrastructure, promote sustainable industrialization and foster innovation
Economic growth, social advancement and action against the climate emergency depend largely on investment in infrastructure, sustainable industrial development and technological progress. Today, about 1 billion people live more than 2 km from a roadway, 940 million live without electricity, and 663 million lack improved drinking water sources.
ACCIONA participates in the entire infrastructure construction value chain, from the identification of opportunity, design and execution, to the operation and maintenance of the constructed works, using the most advanced and innovative techniques.
Performance quality and safety are two of the criteria that maximize the company's value proposal in the development of large infrastructure projects and that differentiate it from other competitors in the construction field.
Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable
Today, cities represent 3 % of the planet's surface and concentrate more than 50 % of the population. A figure that will rise to 70 % by 2050. In addition, cities generate more than 80 % of the world's gross domestic product (GDP).
In addition to facilitating access to essential services for life - such as energy and water - ACCIONA contributes to making cities places of productive well-being in which to live, favouring people's socio-economic development.
Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns
Sustainable consumption and production is about promoting the efficient use of resources and energy, building environmentally friendly infrastructure, improving access to basic services and creating green, fairly paid jobs with good working conditions.
All of this translates into a better quality of life for all and, moreover, helps to achieve general development plans that reduce economic, environmental and social costs, increase competitiveness and reduce poverty.
Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts
The generation and use of energy accounts 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 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.
