GMV is committed to more sustainable transport alternatives. One-third of the company’s vehicles are 100% electric. GMV also has LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) vehicles, electric vehicle charging stations, and other benefits such as transportation vouchers.
With the aim of cutting resource consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, GMV is renegotiating its energy contracts to ensure that all GMV’s installations in Spain are powered exclusively by energy from renewable sources.
At the beginning of the year, the gas-fired boiler at the head office in Tres Cantos, Madrid was removed and replaced by a more environmentally friendly thermal conditioning system.
