Reducing Dependence on Fossil Fuels and Improving Air Quality
Iberdrola España, the Spanish subsidiary of the Iberdrola Group, has taken a significant step forward in its commitment to the electrification of heat by launching ATuAire, a company specializing in aerothermal energy in Spain. ATuAire aims to spearhead and facilitate access to this energy solution, which can significantly reduce dependence on fossil fuels, helping to improve air quality and reduce reliance on foreign sources of energy. Heat accounts for 41% of final energy consumption in Spain, highlighting the need for innovative solutions to this issue. The European directive on buildings’ energy performance requires all new buildings, both public and private, to be zero-emissions by 2030, extending this requirement to all buildings, both new and existing, by 2050. Meeting these ambitious targets will require the adoption of sustainable technologies like aerothermal energy.
What is Aerothermal Energy?
Aerothermal energy is a heat pump that utilizes the energy from the outside air to produce heating in winter, cooling in summer, and hot water all year round. This sustainable technology is four times more efficient than a conventional fossil fuel boiler and helps the environment by reducing CO2 emissions.
- Energy efficiency: Aerothermal energy systems are four times more efficient than traditional fossil fuel boilers.
