* International Energy Agency Data (2009)
As may be observed, water consumption fell by more
than 8% although the average number of employees rose
by 26% in the period under review. The biggest fall is
attributable to the fact that there was a ban on watering
lawns at the Fuencarral facilities during the summer
because of the work on the new building and the repair
of a concealed water pipe in the fire prevention network.
Electricity consumption rose slightly due to the inclusion
of Cuatro employees, resulting in an increase in the
number of employees and the work carried out and the
considerable increase in technical equipment for all new
broadcasting channels in Mediaset España.
Additionally, the electricity consumed by the machinery
used in the construction work on the new building at
Fuencarral, with a television set of 600 m
2
, 5 floors of
offices of approximately 900 m
2
each and an underground
car park for 110 cars, which is expected to ease parking
problems in the area, was also taken into account.
The new building is heated by natural gas while air-
conditioning is provided by electrical units without
refrigeration towers.The aim is to reduce CO
2
emissions
on heat generation by 20% compared with other energy
sources.
