Integration into the territory
Integration into the territory
We care about improving the integration of our installations in the surrounding environment as much as possible, using methods that, going beyond legal requirements, minimise their potential visual and environmental impact.
We care about the best installation compatibility with the environment
Our commitment is tangible and results in a demanding environmental process in each of our projects.
We examine all land, environmental, and biodiversity variables, from the smallest species such as butterflies or small mammals, to the largest birds of prey such as bearded vultures. We also take into account and avoid impacting cultural heritage, archaeology, as well as the population in the area, their uses and customs.
How do we do this? With a demanding environmental assessment
Caring for the environment and health, at the core of our actions
We are working to achieve the best route for our installations within the energy planning guidelines.
They are one of the elements that Red Eléctrica has studied most over a 30+ year period, as they surround us every day: From the sun to microwaves, as well as electricity lines.
Our installations are below legal limits, either due to their location or the measures applied to reduce their levels as much as possible.
We take the greatest possible care to preserve the rich cultural heritage in our country, with archaeologists involved in all our works who, on some occasions, have made cultural discoveries ranging from old Roman cities to prehistoric remnants.
