We have increased our renewable energy consumption by 25% in the last four years.

The set of Ormazabal facilities around the world reach the figure of 11 GW of annual green energy consumption

As part of our In order to achieve the intermediate objective of decarbonizing 68% of our activity by 2030 and the more ambitious objective of climate neutrality by 2050, in recent years we have redoubled our efforts to provide our facilities with energy from 100% renewable sources; contracting these types of services in countries and regions where energy distributors so certify.

Thus, in the last four years we have managed to reach the significant figure of 11 GW of annual green energy consumption in all our facilities, increasing our consumption of this type of green energy sources by 25% and significantly reducing our impact on the environment.  A commitment that has been particularly noticeable in Europe and that we will soon implement in the rest of the world as opportunities arise to contract certified green energy services.

In addition to the purchase of renewable energy services, we are also committed to self-consumption at our facilities. An effort in which we have managed to reach a figure close to one GW per year (957,689 kW/h per year) thanks to the deployment of photovoltaic installations in several of our factories such as those in Amorebieta, Burgos and Igorre.
