Energy Transition

Over the last two decades, Empresarios Agrupados has shown its excellence in engineering by participating in a number of R&D&I programmes both at home and abroad. This experience has been applied to the development of Power-to-X production projects (hydrogen, ammonia, e-methanol, etc.) derived from renewable sources, amounting to a total capacity of over 3 GW.

These initiatives are essential in the fight to decarbonize the economy, since they can be considered part of the solution to achieving climate neutrality by 2050 and to developing new, innovative chains of value to industry as well as a green economy with high added value.

EAG has participated in more than 80 Power-to-X projects in recent years, ranging from early conceptual phases (FEL1, FEL2), where we advise our clients on the technology best suited to their project, to the development of detailed engineering, in which we already have proven experience.
In terms of capacity, we have developed project engineering from 1 MW up to 1 GW, participating in projects for hydrogen, ammonia, nitric acid, fertilizers, and e-methanol production plants.

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology is a set of technological processes that seek to reduce the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere by capturing it and storing it safely for future use. CCS technology is essential to achieving global reduction in CO2 as long as fossil fuels are used to meet energy demand. In addition to the electric power sector, CCS is a strategic technology for decarbonzing energy-intensive industries. Lastly, CCS technology can also be used in hydrocarbon recovery processes and other future uses currently under development.

During the last 20 years, Empresarios Agrupados has been characterized for being a technological leader not only in all the fields that make up the Natural Gas value chain in gaseous state (Distribution and Power Generation in Combined Cycles), but also for participating in Liquefied Natural Gas projects. That is why we develop engineering and technological innovation capabilities in all types of natural gas infrastructures extending this value chain (Storage, Liquefaction and Regasification).

Because production and demand of electric power varies greatly, technologies are needed that can ensure a steady yet flexible supply.

This is why Empresarios Agrupados takes part in Power Storage Projects with technologies that provide greater backup to the system, thereby ensuring that production can cover the demand for energy, i.e., to ensure the supply.

At Empresarios Agrupados, our track record in the hydraulic sector is a testament to robust engineering and innovative solutions. We have participated in more than 20 large-scale hydraulic projects, including Hydroelectric Power Plants and complex Pumped Storage projects.
We support our clients throughout the entire project life cycle: from the initial Conceptual and Feasibility Phases to the full development of Detailed Engineering at the most advanced stages. Our experience covers resource optimization, maximization of energy efficiency, and strict compliance with technical and environmental regulations.

One of the main fronts and climate debates worrying society today is the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere to prevent the progressive warming of the Earth. In its commitment to the planet Empresarios Agrupados rises to the challenge of keeping the industry competitive while also protecting the environment by developing:

Empresarios Agrupados has become regarded as a leading technological company not only in all the fields making up the value chain of natural gas in its gaseous form, such as in the distribution and production of energy in combined cycle plants, but also in participating in Liquid Natural Gas (LNG) projects. This is why Empresarios Agrupados is honing its engineering and technological innovation capacities for all types of natural gas infrastructures, increasing its value chain (storage, liquefaction, and regasification).

At present, Empresarios Agrupados participates in the basic engineering for small- and medium-scale LNG storage projects, which has given our invaluable knowledge of the equipment comprising these facilities, such as: cryogenic storage tanks, cryogenic pumps, cryogenic valves and piping, etc.

The end use of the LNG in this type of projects has varied considerably, from refueling for heavy vehicles, refueling boats with LNG (bunkering), and supplying natural gas to adjacent industries.

Sea power is energy obtained from the movement of the tides or ocean currents. The energy produced by tides as they ebb and flow is used by turbines to move the mechanical works of the alternator, thereby producing electric power.

Similarly, ocean currents can be used to generate electricity by means of marine turbine generators, with the great advantage of being a renewable energy that is also constant throughout the year, and thus able to operate as a base mode.
