Iberia keeps looking to the future

In this issue, we talk about the sustainable future of the company, new routes and new additions to our airline alliances.

A sustainable future

As part of its commitment to reach zero net emissions by 2050, Iberia is installing solar panels on its 20,000sq m aircraft engine maintenance hangar at the Spanish airline’s Madrid airport facilities. These will generate 80 million kW/h to supply the company’s hangars, workshops, and offices. The new solar facility will generate enough power to supply 800 homes, eliminating the emission of more than 1,000 tonnes of CO2 from the generation of fossil fuels that it will replace each year during its estimated 32-year lifetime. Built in partnership with specialist firm Getting Greener, the panels will use 5,374 solar modules to produce a peak of 2,000kW, for a total of up to 2.7 million kW/h each year. Each panel generates up to 335 watts at peak times, with an efficiency rating of around 20 per cent.

As part of its commitment to reach zero net emissions by 2050, Iberia is going to install in La Muñoza, where hangars, workshops and offices are located, the largest self-consumption plant among the Ibex 35 companies.
