New realities, new services and products
Galp has developed an electric transportation strategy focused on an integrated commercial offering, through the inclusion of electric transportation solutions in our commercial offer, and the implementation of a network of fast-charging points at our service stations in Portugal. We had 24 fast charging stations and 32 normal charging stations by the end of 2019.
We have continued to seek to meet our customers’ expectations, which is why since 2016 Galp has provided Evologic diesel and gasoline, a new fuel range with additives allowing greater savings, extended engine life and greater efficiency.
Galp Energy Solutions
Through our energy solutions segment, Galp offers its clients a wide range of services specifically designed to meet the needs of the industry, buildings and transport segments in the national market. Through energy performance contracts, implemented using the ESCO (Energy Service Companies) model, and energy implementation projects, Galp supports its clients in the reduction of their energy consumption and costs and avoiding greenhouse gas emissions.
In 2019, we added new projects to our portfolio, using different business models, with a focus on optimisation projects for the premise's energy consumption profile. Alongside its clients, in 2019, Galp developed energy efficiency solutions that avoided emissions of 345 tonCO2e/year.
Galp 21
Galp 21 is a university cooperation program whose purpose is the annual development of 21 studies and works carried out by students or master’s students in Portugal’s top three universities - Universidade de Aveiro (University of Aveiro), Instituto Superior Técnico (Higher Technical Institute) and the Faculdade de Engenharia of the Universidade do Porto (Engineering School of the University of Porto). Its aim is to identify and develop rational energy systems and behaviors that may be applied to the industry and buildings.
The program is based on a shared mentoring system between Galp (the client manager), the client company and the university concerned. Galp follows up the studies’ accomplishment, with the objective of contributing to its materialization into specific energy efficiency projects in its clients.
Since its twelve editions, Galp has already supported 247 grantees. In 2019, the implemented measures allowed reductions of almost 7% in primary energy consumption and 6% in CO2 emissions.
