This very morning, at about 12:00 midday took place the act of the inauguration of the works for Eiffage Energía’s new head office in Albacete. This symbolic act of laying the first stone was attended by the president of Castilla-La Mancha, Emiliano García-Page along with Ludovic Duplan, Deputy CEO of Eiffage Énergie and José Manuel Martínez, CEO of Eiffage Energía.
The new head office of Eiffage Energía in Spain located on the road to Mahora, Km 3,200 and which will be operational next year, is a step forward for one of Castilla-La Mancha’s companies with most international potential.
The project includes extending and refurbishing the existing facilities of the Eiffage Energía Group in Spain, the comprehensive remodelling and extension of the office building, the removal of the vehicle workshop and the reorganisation of the storage warehouse. Also will take place the construction of a new building devoted to parking and the complete reorganisation of the plot, which includes parking, access and green areas, among others.
The scope of action represents an investment of approximately 4 million Euros and will accommodate some 250 professionals from central services, while providing direct service to the entire organisation at national and international level. Among the objectives of this new construction is that of centralising and integrating the different departments to optimise resources, thus improving productivity and profitability and reducing environmental impact.
Sustainability
The project has the Green Environmental Certificate-GBCe(Green Building Council España) due to its incorporation of technical specifications of eco-efficient materials, systems and installations that increase energy efficiency and reduce consumption and therefore environmental impact. The complex will be equipped with, among others, photovoltaic solar, aerothermal solar installation, biomass power plant, rainwater recovery, comprehensive LED lighting, BMS-EMS systems, recharging of electric vehicles, as well as passive systems of sun protection and green roofs.
Specialised in electrical infrastructures, installations, maintenance, renewable energy, electro-medicine, civil engineering and construction, Eiffage Energía boasts more than 30 delegations in Spain. Its workforce exceeds 2,500 employees, 800 in Castilla-La Mancha and, of them, some 700 in Albacete.
It also relies on its 7 subsidiaries: Eiffage Energía Chile, Eiffage Energía Mexico, Eiffage Energía Peru and Eiffage Energía Jamaica, created recently, and the other three, Ambitec, Inelbo and Conscytec, with head offices in Spanish territory and which have the back up of the more than 170 years of experience of the Group present in the five continents and with nearly 65,000 employees.
The refurbishment and renovation project for the new head office of Eiffage in Spain is now a reality. Great news for such an important year that Eiffage Energía is having and which is included in the projects that are being developed at both national and international level.
