During their first year of collaboration, both organisations attended to more than 7,000 people at risk of vulnerability through 300 energy efficiency projects.

With the renewal of the agreement, the Naturgy Foundation and Caritas will strengthen their strategic alliance and expand their collaboration with the Social Employment and Energy Efficiency Programme aimed at training unemployed people to refurbish vulnerable housing.

As an additional activity to the projects, there are also plans to involve the Naturgy Foundation’s travelling exhibition, Energytruck – a large sustainable truck that houses a mobile exhibition on the responsible use of energy.

In the first year of this partnership, the two entities helped more than 800 families at risk of vulnerability by offering advice on the responsible use of energy and an energy efficiency kit for adapting supply consumption in their homes, among other things.

By renewing the agreement, the GAS NATURAL FENOSA Foundation and the Red Cross are strengthening their strategic partnership and expanding their cooperation to include raising awareness in children and young people and offering energy workshops at schools and play centres.

Under the new agreement, the Red Cross will develop a mobile app to improve the assessment of and service to families taking part in the energy vulnerability project.

The workshop is part of a series of talks about energy efficiency that the Tarragona Council provides for the public at the civil centres.

The pioneer programme in Spain aims to train over 2000 professionals from the tertiary sector in good practices in saving and efficiency.

The initiative forms part of the Gas Natural Fenosa Energy Vulnerability Plan, a series of measures aimed at improving the management of vulnerable households and helping social services and third sector entities in their work with the most vulnerable people.
