The Valencian winery continues with its action plan to reduce its carbon footprint.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Climate change is one of the main concerns of Bodegas Vicente Gandia<\/strong>, since its effects have a direct impact on agriculture, shortening the vegetative cycle of the vineyard, which means shorter harvests and therefore lower profitability.<\/p>\n

It is therefore key, within our Sustainability strategy<\/strong><\/a>, to define a roadmap to, on the one hand, move towards the neutrality of our GHG emissions, in line with the Paris Agreement, the 2030 Agenda (SDG 7 and SDG 13 ) and the European Climate Law and, on the other, to advance in the mitigation and adaptation of their consequences for the continuity of our activity.<\/p>\n

Bodegas Vicente Gandia<\/strong>, following this roadmap for decarbonisation, has launched a photovoltaic plant in the Hoya de Cadenas Estate<\/strong><\/a> for self-consumption of 100 kW of power in the first quarter of 2022. The main objective is to be able to increase our energy self-sufficiency capacity and reduce the consumption of fossil fuels.<\/strong><\/p>\n

With this action it is estimated that 68% of the annual energy demand <\/strong>of the Estate will be covered, avoiding the emission of up to 10 tons of CO2 per year.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This initiative is part of the line of action of Bodegas Vicente Gand\u00eda<\/strong> for the reduction of the carbon footprint, <\/strong>in which, in addition to the commitment to renewable energy<\/strong>, energy efficiency measures<\/strong> are included for greater use of energy and control of indirect GHG emissions, emission control measures for the prevention<\/strong> of direct GHG emissions and awareness raising measures for the reduction of GHG associated with the use and consumption by our staff.<\/p>\n

Within the energy efficiency<\/strong> actions, we highlight those specific to energy-consuming equipment and installations, applying replacement strategies for more efficient equipment, working to improve performance with our engineering team, incorporating technology for monitoring and\/or control, etc.<\/p>\n

In relation to the control of GHG emissions<\/strong>, we have a rigorous plan for the control of fugitive leaks of fluorinated gases present in cold installations, a plan for self-control of boiler emissions and monitoring of fuel consumption of our fleet.<\/p>\n

Lastly, raising awareness are cross-cutting measures<\/strong> that we cultivate by promoting the environmental culture of our organization, developing specific campaigns such as prizes for staff for sharing a vehicle to get to work, or improving the idea of month, among others. All this, always within a framework of training and information that contemplates the environmental aspects of our activity and our commitment to the continuous improvement of environmental performance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
