The EU proposes to apply a tariff on imported carbon-intensive products. The measure (CBAM) will be implemented in two phases, will come into force in 2026 and will initially apply to imports in sectors such as cement, hydrogen and electricity. As part of the fight against climate change, the European Union (EU) has launched […]
One of humanity’s greatest challenges is the fight against climate change, global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions need to reach a ceiling as soon as possible, but this implies carrying out a process of decarbonisation of current socio-economic systems and “transitioning” towards new efficient models in the use of resources, from raw materials to energy fluxes, […]
Over the last few years, the terms sustainability and sustainable development have been on everyone’s lips. Sustainable vehicles, sustainable fuels, sustainable fashion, sustainable food products… but do you really know what these concepts mean? What is sustainability? The concept of sustainable development was first recorded 36 years ago, with the publication in 1987 of the […]
Sustainability is not a new concern for us at Genesal Energy. Even when few in the industry were thinking about the concept, when it was still considered a passing fad, we were taking it seriously. We began work on a detailed action plan aimed at maximising the energy efficiency of all the projects that bear […]
El cambio climático es una evidencia científica y un problema global que lamentablemente no se puede solucionar sin la colaboración de todos. Por este motivo, en el camino hacia la sostenibilidad las iniciativas individuales importan, aunque solo serán realidades si se llevan a la práctica.
The production and storage of green hydrogen for use as fuel opens up new possibilities for sustainable energy generation with zero impact. In order to better understand the HYDROGENSET concept, it is important to first understand how hydrogen functions as an energy carrier. Hydrogen is the simplest and lightest element in the periodic table. Hydrogen […]
We have a plan! We created the Faculty of Energy Transitionand we have obtained official Carbon Footprint Calculation Certification as part of our commitment to sustainability. Digitalisation, renewable energy sources and energy carriers, and the transition to natural gas are the cornerstones of energy transition. Climate change is real. According to the European Space Agency (ESA), […]
We cannot put an end to the CO2 emissions of the entire planet, but we can do everything we can to limit emissions in our facilities. We have installed 126 photovoltaic panels on the roof of our headquarters in Bergondo, A Coruña. The work is part of the first phase of our OGGY energy management […]
In keeping with our commitment to sustainability and the goals laid out in the 2030 Agenda, we have begun installation of two photovoltaic facades at our headquarters in Bergondo. The project will stimulate innovation and will have a contribute directly to our pursuit of 6 of the 17 SDGs. The initiative is part of the […]
We recently launched OGGY (Off-Grid Genesal energY), our company energy management system. When put into operation in conjunction with certain other systems currently in development, it will open the door to Genesal becoming energy self-sufficient. OGGY is an energy management system which uses a control algorithm to allow us to store energy from different sources […]
