Annual Report 2006 - FCC

Corporate Social ResponsibilitySolid urban waste collection. Electric vehicle. MadridSolid urban waste treatment plant. BarbanzaServices and CO2FCC Medio Ambiente, which is notable for its wastemanagement activities, increased its fleet of industrial vehiclespowered with compressed natural gas, which now represent11% of the company's total vehicles. In 2006, the hybridelectricKBI rubbish collectors with a 7m 3 storage capacitywere incorporated into the vehicle fleet. The estimated valueof CO2 emissions associated with vehicle fuel consumptionthis year was 127,995.29 tonnes of CO2, which is up 2.5%compared to 2005. (Sources for the estimation of CO2emissions: "Emission factors (kg CO"/GJ) based on lowerheating values are from IPCC, 1996, Volume 2, Section 1",and the heating capacity of fuels in GJ is from "Compendiumof Greenhouse Gas Emissions Estimation Methodologies forthe Oil and Gas Industry, American Petroleum Institute,2001”).Growth in GHG emissions in 2006, mainly attributable toconsumption of natural gas, is due to the 15.3% increasein the number of industrial vehicles in cities such as Barcelona,Valencia and Oviedo, as well as the rise in services renderedin Madrid with existing vehicles.Type of fuel Fuel consumption Units CO2 emissions (Tm of CO2)Diesel 37,299,552.12 litres 102,416.03Natural gas 12,733,679.00 Nm 3 24,984.75Petrol 249,562.96 litres 594.51Total tonnes 127,995.29CDiesel CO2 emissions calculation = (Diesel consumption (litres) x 74.01 x 0.0371)/1000.CNG CO2 emissions calculation = (CNG consumption (m3) x 56.06 x 0.035)/1000.Petrol CO2 emissions calculation = (Petrol consumption (litres) x 69.25 (kg CO2/GJ) x 0.0344 (GJ/litre)/1000 (kg/t).Calculation source: GHG Protocol Mobile Guide Versión 1.3.The calculation is made from fuel consumption of the fleet included in the scope of the environmental management system by FCC Medio Ambiente (approximately 80% of contracts).Combating climate change165
