Solar Panel Spain Tender

Location Spain airportThe board of directors at Aena Spains airport operator has approved an ambitious new plan to cut carbon emissions and save on its energy bills by generating most of its own power through solar panels by 2026.The company will invest 250 million on installing solar panels in half of its airports a move that should also lower its carbon emissions by 40 167000 tons by 2025.There had been an earlier plan introduced by the previous management team to purchase clean energy from other providers while self-producing only around 5 of the total. But the new company leaders feel that producing their own energy is a lot cheaper especially considering that Aena owns vast tracts of empty land located near the airports that could be used for solar panels.The company which is 51 state owned now has to decide which airports will get the new facilities first. In addition to Madrid and Barcelonas airports the company plans to install solar panels in 20 out of the 46 airports it has in Spain focusing on the ones with more available land and sunlight.This will also ensure that Madrid and Barcelonas airports which account for half of Aenas emissions are carbon neutral by 2030. The company also plans to replace all of its passenger vehicles with non-polluting ones by 2025 and to install 2300 charging stations for electric vehicles in its airport parking lots.
