The company is committed to the circular economy to contribute to the achievement of its 2030 ‘Positive Motion’ strategy.
Cepsa has managed to minimise, recycle and recover 6,390 tonnes of operational waste in 2023, 73% more than the previous year, avoiding the emission of more than 3,000 tonnes of CO2.
In its objective to minimise, recycle and recover 8,000 tonnes of its operational waste by 2030 (compared to 2019), Cepsa has managed to increase the circularity of 6,390 tonnes of waste at its industrial centres in Andalusia in San Roque (Cádiz) and Palos de la Frontera (Huelva) in 2023, 73% more than the previous year, when it recovered up to 3,690 tonnes. In this way, the company has managed to avoid the emission of more than 3,000 tonnes of CO2, which is equivalent to giving a second life to the waste generated during a year by a population of 12,000 inhabitants.
With the aim of promoting circularity, Cepsa will progressively replace fossil raw materials with renewable and recycled sources. The company is committed to increasing the proportion of renewable and circular raw materials in its Energy Parks to 15% by 2030. This will involve the use of 2.8 million tonnes of raw materials by 2030, 75% of which will be second generation (2G) and other waste that would otherwise be discarded. In this regard, thanks to the company’s commitment to innovation, Cepsa has managed to produce circular phenol from single-use plastics, a pioneering test in Spain.
