Energy self-sufficiency
The use of solar panels to promote energy self-consumption at our facilities is part of our commitment.
Renewable energy generation and self-consumption are part of our commitment to reduce CO2 intensity and achieve our goal of becoming a net zero emissions company by 2050. As part of this strategy, we have installed photovoltaic solar panels for self-consumption at some of our service stations on the Iberian Peninsula and expect to continue installing more at a great deal of our stations all across Spain throughout 2020.
What are solar panels?
Solar panels are made up of materials that capture solar energy and convert it into electrical energy.
Find out how they work
Solar panels are installed on top of the canopy structures at our service stations for energy self-consumption. Self-consumption means that we generate the same amount of energy that we need.
Electric energy
A solar panel is an aluminum structure made out of photovoltaic cells that turn the radiation from the sun into electricity, even in rainy or cloudy days.
What if there's no sunlight?
The station is still connected to the power grid, so the energy supply is always guaranteed.
We are committed to renewable energy, because time doesn't stand still, and neither do we.
