The Altamira Community of Neighbors, located in Madrid, has taken a decisive step toward energy efficiency thanks to the guidance of Escan Energy Consultants. By leveraging the savings generated from lighting upgrades, Escan has designed and managed a project to obtain Energy Savings Certificates (CAEs), turning efficiency into a tangible economic opportunity.

This project will allow the community to transform its lighting improvements into an additional benefit by monetizing energy savings through the CAE system. Escan facilitated the identification of savings potential, the collection of technical data, and the design of the certificate management process within the national system.

Altamira’s experience demonstrates how CAEs can be a practical and accessible tool for residential communities seeking to capitalize on their energy efficiency investments. Escan continues to work toward bringing these solutions to more groups, making it easier to access mechanisms that once seemed reserved for large companies or institutions.
