Energy efficiency

The Swedish home decoration giant IKEA is going green in Spain. IKEA has announced that it will sell its new solar panel range in Spain in partnership with the Spanish energy company Contigo Energía.

Spain is one of the most attractive countries in the world for investment in clean energy.

Spending more time at home, forced by the COVID-19 pandemic, has opened the eyes of many residents in Spain who consequently want to improve the health, comfort and safety of their homes.

The vast majority of multi-family residential buildings in Spain have the capacity to install solar panels on their roofs, according to data from idealista/energy, with the potential to achieve shared energy consumption among neighbours.

The end of the "sun tax" has finally happened in Spain, with the removal of this tax by the government. In the past, this tax made it difficult and slowed down the self-consumption of electricity in Spain.

The constant development of photovoltaic energy is making it increasingly possible for more homeowners to 'live off the sun' nowadays. The price of solar panels has experienced a reduction over the years, opening the door to self-consumption.

Solar panels are a possibility for you if you want to consume your own, clean energy and save money in the long term.

As we come into autumn and winter in Spain, we tend to be at home more and energy-saving becomes more and more necessary.

All homes need to make use of electricity and therefore have to contract their supply. However, not all homes have the same consumption habits and needs may vary depending on several factors.

Energy efficiency and sustainability are no longer the ugly duckling of the real estate sector, but have now become serious selling points capable of attracting potential buyers. Companies know this, and they talk it up in their promotional material.

Madrid and Barcelona can boast of being two of the most sustainable cities in the world. The 2018 Sustainable Cities Index, compiled by Arcadis, places these two Spanish cities among the 30 most sustainable in the world.

The price of electricity seems to go up every year, with consumers struggling to save a few pennies to pay their more expensive electricity bills.

Winter is coming to Spain and it's important to know how to control the air temperature in your house, so you can enjoy a warm home when the temperatures drop and not pay too much.

The heat makes the thermometers go up, and our electricity bills too. In the next couple of months, we’ll be seeing the highest temperatures of the year, which will cause the electricity consumption of households all over Spain to skyrocket by more than 20%.

The Earth has more water than land surface, a fact that has led man to design numerous urban development projects on the sea: from The World, the archipelago of artificial islands in the form of a globe in Dubai, to Artisanopolis, a modern Atlantis that they want to build on the waters of French Pol
