Eight companies in the Spanish energy sector -Cepsa, EDP España, Enagás, Endesa, Iberdrola, Naturgy, Redeia and Repsol- have worked collaboratively for three years, coordinated by Azentúa and Ecoacsa, to agree on a common terminology, framework and methodology for the identification and valuation of natural capital, applicable to the global energy industry.

 

The work has been developed within the framework of the Sector Groups of the Natural Capital Factory -Spanish hub of the Capitals Coalition-, promoted by Ecoacsa.
