About…

Oasis de Atacama, the largest storage project in the world with a capacity of nearly 11 GWh and almost 2 GW of solar energy.

Grenergy advances in its commitment to electrical storage. The company signs a new hybrid PPA (photovoltaic power supply + storage) to supply green energy for 15 years to an international power company with an investment grade rating. With this agreement, Grenergy accumulates contracts worth €3.3 billion and strengthens its global leadership in the signing of power purchase agreements (PPAs).

Comunity

Grenergy has defined the basic principles and strategic lines that underpin and guide the strategy of social impact in the environment of its projects.

Basic principles and strategy guidelines

Proactive communication

Two-way, frequent and fluid communication with the local community from the early stages as the basis of the strategy for relations with the local community, aimed at creating a social link with the company.

Medium and long-term value creation

The company’s social contribution will seek to improve the well-being of the local community with a medium and long-term perspective, giving priority to those initiatives capable of creating a positive social impact and generating added value in their quality of life.

Strengthening links

The implementation of social initiatives aims to create and strengthen links between the company and the community and is therefore flexible in nature and in tune with the specific needs of each community, identified as a result of fluid and frequent communication with the local community.

Strategic alliances

Social activity is designed and implemented in close collaboration with strong local non-governmental organisations (NGOs) familiar with the local culture and reality.

Ethics and transparency

The social contribution is made in an orderly and transparent manner in accordance with applicable legislation and in compliance with the company’s ethical codes.

Respect

The relationship with the local community shall be based on respect for its values and traditions by all employees and collaborators of the company, and shall observe the established internal systems of representation.

Impact monitoring

Appropriate metrics are used to track the impact of the social initiatives implemented, and are reported to stakeholders in the annual sustainability reports and/or on the company’s website.

Linking to priority SDGs

The strategic lines that define the nature of specific social development initiatives are based on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals that the company has chosen as a priority, so that the implementation of these initiatives contributes directly to these goals:
