ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT MANAGEMENT

We continue to mature and we are making significant progress in optimizing energy efficiency and the effective use of natural resources. At the same time, minimizing and redressing the environmental impacts generated by our operations plays a crucial role in our daily activities.

As a result of the restructuring of our strategic plan, we have introduced changes in the presentation of our environmental performance data compared to previous reports.

1.1 ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND CONSUMPTION OF NATURAL RESOURCES

We continue to make progress, with improvements in reducing our emissions and using energy efficiently. There has been a notable reduction in the consumption of natural resources such as energy, water and gas. Moreover, we are dedicating significant efforts to minimizing our carbon footprint.

WATER CONSUMPTION

As for discharges, wastewater generated during maintenance and cleaning work is subjected to treatment before being discharged into the public system. This process ensures that these waters comply with the quality and volume standards established by current legislation. It is important to emphasize that no accidental spills were registered during the specified period.

NOTEWORTHY ACTIVITIES 2022/2023

As a result of these actions, we achieved a total savings of 7% in energy consumption during the 2022/2023 period.

1.2 IMPACTS ON THE ENVIRONMENT

In this section of the report, we present the strategies that guide our efforts toward achieving the objectives derived from our environmental and social commitments. Our focus is on the mitigation and repair of the environmental impacts generated by our activity, demonstrating our commitment to the sustainability and well-being of the communities in which we operate. Moreover, we seek to promote a culture of awareness among our workers, encouraging responsible practices that contribute to care of the environment in all our daily activities.

Our commitment to communities’ sustainability and well-being is reflected in our daily actions, where we prioritize the mitigation and repair of environmental impacts, promoting a culture of awareness among our workers.

TOTAL VOLUME OF WASTE GENERATED IN 2023 IN KG
(HAZARDOUS AND NON-HAZARDOUS) 2022-2023 AVERAGE:

We manage all our waste in accordance with current regulations and by applying the waste hierarchy. 97% of our waste receives some kind of recovery treatment (90% recycling, 1% reuse, 6% other types of recovery).

In terms of carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides emissions, we make an air quality analysis, measuring the emissions of the heating boiler and ACS, obtaining the following results:

We do not produce emissions of ozone-depleting substances.
