Iberdrola España installs 500 new chargers at Airbus production centres in Spain
- With this agreement, both companies strengthen in their commitment to electrification
- The new charging infrastructure is managed using smart digital solutions that optimise consumption and reduce emissions
Iberdrola España and Airbus have advanced their commitment to the electrification of the aeronautical industry with the implementation of a strategic agreement to install and operate nearly 500 charging points for electric vehicles at the aerospace company's production centres in Spain. This partnership reinforces both companies' commitment to more sustainable, efficient and innovative mobility.
Managed using smart digital solutions, the chargers optimise consumption and actively help cut back emissions. They are also integrated into a platform so they can be operated from mobile phones, improving the experience of Airbus employees, visitors and internal fleets.
This agreement consolidates a partnership aimed at transforming mobility in the industrial environment that began in 2019.
‘The agreement with Airbus is a new milestone in our commitment to accelerate the electrification of transport through efficient, smart and sustainable charging infrastructure‘, said David Martínez, director of customer business at Iberdrola España.
