SPAIN – Kronospan is realizing one of the largest self-consumption projects in Spain.
Around 16,500 PV modules have been installed over an area of 36,000 m2 – equivalent in size to five football pitches. They will generate 9,2 GWh/year of clean energy and provide a relevant part of the energy required for the production processes with a clean and renewable energy source.
Almost 100% of the output of these facilities will be consumed internally, resulting in a 5% reduction in the current electrical grid consumption.
Thanks to the commitment to sustainability and energy efficiency, it will succeed in making a qualitative leap together with Endesa X and join the energy revolution, by reducing its carbon footprint by around 3,200 tons of CO₂/year, equivalent to planting 282,000 trees/year.
Kronospan is a world leading manufacturer of wood-based panels and value added products for the interior design, furniture and construction industries.
Since its operations commenced with a single sawmill in 1897, Kronospan has developed a unique supply chain with over 45 production sites and 25 distribution centres in over 30 countries and more than 17,000 co-workers around the world.
