According to the latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reports, man-made climate change is causing dangerous and widespread disruption to nature, affecting the lives of billions of people (IPCC).Man-made climate change is causing hazardous and general disruption to nature, affecting the lives of billions of people around the world despite efforts to reduce its impact. The consequences of climate change include air pollution, increased environmental catastrophes, risks to food security and the destruction of ecosystems.
The primary measure to mitigate these consequences is to achieve the maximum reduction of greenhouse gas emissions to stabilise the climate by achieving net zero carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, the leading cause of climate change. This process of gradually reducing emissions is called decarbonisation.
In December 2019, EU leaders meeting at the European Council agreed that the EU should achieve climate neutrality by 2050. They decided that the EU should achieve climate neutrality by 2050. This agreement, whose measures were specified in the European Green Pact, made Europe the world’s leading reference in terms of decarbonisation efforts and led to different strategic plans at the national level (in Spain, the commitment was set out in the Long Term Strategy; and in regulations and measures to be implemented by institutions and companies to make progress in this respect.
In this context of climate emergency, Sando takes an active role in the decarbonization of the economy and the contribution to the 2030 Agenda, through the promotion, engineering, construction and operation and maintenance of facilities and plants generating 100% renewable energy (electricity and process heat), through its specialized company, Sando Conservación y Energía. The company develops circular economy projects and renewable gases that help to recover waste and minimise its impact by substituting other raw materials.
Energy and decarbonisation
Contributing to the decarbonisation of the economy
Energy and decarbonisation
We offer public and private organisations our specialisation in solutions that integrate alternative energies and energy efficiency systems to contribute to the global challenge of climate change.
At Sando Conservación y Energía we put at the service of public administrations and companies our experience in energy solutions that improve the efficiency of infrastructures, integrate renewable energies and contribute to decarbonisation objectives.
Our activity covers the design, execution, maintenance and operation of public lighting projects, energy rehabilitation of buildings, energy management, renewable energies and storage, efficient mobility and smart technologies applied to cities. A comprehensive approach that combines engineering, technology and innovation to optimize resources, improve the performance of facilities and reduce energy consumption.
We complement these capabilities with the development of decarbonisation projects aimed at reducing and offsetting emissions. In this area, we promote nature-based solutions, such as reforestation projects and the creation of carbon sinks that contribute to the capture of CO₂, the improvement of biodiversity and the generation of environmental value for the territories. These initiatives include the creation of a carbon dioxide sink in Malaga through the planting of 3,700 trees in collaboration with Parcemasa.
In addition, we participate in research and innovation projects linked to the circular economy, energy efficiency and renewable energies, with the aim of developing solutions that contribute to the energy transition in line with our Sustainability Master Plan.
