Annual And Corporate Responsibility Report 2017

The Company insists that all toner waste be recycled: to be given a new cartridge, the user must present the spent one. All computer and IT material is removed and treated by an authorised waste management company and the proceeds obtained from reusing components in 2017 were donated to the DEBRA-Piel de Mariposa association. Consumption of light bulbs and fluorescent lighting increased in 2017 because the lighting at various construction areas that require 500 lux reached the end of its useful life in the year. All discarded material is recycled. Energy consumption After investing in a new kitchen and upgrading its heating and air conditioning systems, the Group reported a significant reduction in gas and fossil fuel consumption in 2017. Meanwhile, renewable energy sources accounted for 63% of all electricity consumed by Atresmedia in 2017. Fossil fuel consumption -9.18% Natural gas consumption -10.04% • Fuel consumed by Atresmedia vehicles was up 75.8% (petrol), due to the acquisition of 19 mobile units for Onda Cero, which run on petrol. These new vehicles are there to replace 15 older vehicles, the removal of which has led to a 14.6% reduction in diesel consumption. | 170 |  7.
