Charging points for responsible mobility

At Grupo Agroponiente, we continue to make strides in our commitment to sustainability, energy efficiency, and reducing our carbon footprint. As part of this dedication to more responsible mobility, we have installed new charging points for electric and hybrid vehicles at our El Ejido facilities, further reinforcing the transition toward an increasingly sustainable corporate fleet. We currently have hybrid and electric vehicles allocated to various operational areas within the company, driving a more efficient mobility model aligned with our environmental and innovation goals.
The installation of two ultra-fast and two semi-fast charging stations at the Agroponiente plant in El Ejido, Almería, was subsidized through the MOVES III program of the Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge, funded by the European Union – NextGenerationEU, within the framework of the Plan de Recuperación, Transformación y Resiliencia.
