The initiative consists of a series of lessons and exercises on the Energy Campus website that are carried out in the classroom under the guidance of a teacher, as well as a visit to the San Roque Energy Park. In this edition of the Energy Campus, these sessions on the energy sector in industrial facilities finished with Getares de Algeciras High School (Cadiz).
The objective of this Moeve educational program is to show students the evolution of energy throughout the history of humankind, and to connect them with the Moeve value chain. The company teaches about the impact of crude oil and its derivatives and how they are applied in everyday life, in addition to a commitment to the energy transition through the 2030 Positive Motion Strategy. It will use this to invest up to 8 billion euros to become a leader in sustainable mobility, green hydrogen, and advanced biofuels in Spain and Portugal, putting customers at the center of its activity and helping them to decarbonize.
Moeve’s commitment and responsibility to the populations of the areas it's located in is also addressed in this program, in addition to the safety of people, facilities, and nearby population centers, as well as its continuous efforts to protect and reduce its footprint on the environment.
The Energy Campus also addresses Moeve's commitment to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations (UN), and has a special chapter dedicated to the company's responsibility to its professionals, work-life balance, and diversity and inclusion.
