Roca Group, a leading designer and producer of bathroom products, has announced a long-term renewable energy agreement which will see it reduce its CO2 equivalent emissions by 50,000 tons per year.
The move follows the company’s launch of the world’s first electric kiln for sanitary ceramics production.
The agreement spans 10 years, from 2025 to 2035, and is tied to the new solar plants Trévago I & II, located in the province of Soria, Spain.
The solar plants are scheduled to begin operations in July 2025 and have a capacity of 86.84 MWp, with 80% of the total capacity being dedicated to Roca Group. This is expected to generate 120 GWh of clean energy annually, the volume needed to cover the electricity consumption of all group operations in European territory.
This initiative will result in a reduction of over 50,000 tons per year of CO2 equivalent emissions, corresponding to the group\’s electricity consumption in Europe. It marks a new milestone in Roca Group\’s decarbonisation roadmap, complementing the recent start of operations of the world\’s first net-zero sanitary ceramics production plant. The group has already achieved a 39% reduction in its direct CO2 equivalent emissions and a 47% reduction in energy intensity between 2018 and 2022, moving closer to its net-zero ambition by 2045.
