The reduction will be thanks to the energy efficiency measures promoted by the government team, such as the improvement of lighting with the replacement of LED lights and the implementation of solar panels in municipal buildings and 33 schools.
The mayor of Alicante, Luis Barcala, has highlighted that the City Council is currently investing €1.1 million in energy efficiency measures.
The mayor has confirmed that “these are added to the more than 8 million euros that we have already invested since 2018”.
The mayor stressed that the City Council’s commitment to sustainable mobility is reflected in the works underway for the pedestrianization of the traditional nucleus, as well as in other urban pacification and modernization projects.
“We do not want these energy saving measures to be short-term, but medium and long term so that they are consolidated over time,” added the mayor.
