More than 500 Cepsa service stations are now equipped with photovoltaic panels supplying renewable energy as part of a project developed with Redexis.

In total, Cepsa's service stations have 12,000 high-tech photovoltaic panels with a production capacity of 10,000 MWh per year, equivalent to the annual energy consumption of 4,000 homes. The installation of these panels prevents the annual emission of 3,500 tons of CO2.

The panels supply Cepsa's service stations during the day and any surplus is fed into the distribution network, thus optimizing the facilities’ overall energy efficiency and allowing 100% of the service station network to consume electricity from renewable sources.

“We continue to make progress in the transformation of our network with the aim of accelerating the energy transition and becoming leaders in sustainable mobility and energy in Spain and Portugal. We want to offer our customers a range of solutions for sustainable mobility, as well as a pleasant and complete experience at our service stations, which we are turning into spaces for multi-mobility and ultra-convenience services,” said Pierre-Yves Sachet, Director of Mobility & New Commerce.

In addition to the installation of photovoltaic panels, Cepsa is transforming its more than 1,800 service stations multi-mobility spaces. These facilities, which are being digitized, will offer a wide variety of ultra-convenience and catering services, as well as different energy solutions.

Redexis announced in 2022 its 'Energy26' Strategic Plan that includes an investment of €1 billion over five years (2022-2026) and focuses on intensifying its growth in the deployment of sustainable.
