Granada Fuel Supply

The distribution of electricity in Grenada is performed by the company Endesa Distribution, which also distributes electricity in many other cities and regions of Spain and other countries.

The company Endesa absorbed Sevillana de Electricidad in the ’90s and for legal reasons was divided into two generation companies—Endesa and Endesa-Distribiucion. Currently, it is possible to supply electricity to any electrical operator

The total consumption of electricity in 2006 was 1,024,240 kWh, of which 438,756 kWh corresponded to the consumption of residential households in Granada.

Fuels

The supply of petroleum fuels, at Granada and its area of influence, is located in Motril, one of the facilities of the company that owns Logistics Hidrocarburos, distributed throughout Spain.

The CLH Group’s mission is the distribution of fuel and liquid fuel in a continuous and efficient manner. They transport fuel from gas stations in Motril to Granada and its provinces in large trucks, because at present (2008 ) CLH has concluded contracts for logistics services for use of their facilities with the majority of operators (petrol stations) that operate in Spain.

Butane and propane gas

The company Repsol Butano has a hazard logistics for butane and propane gas to meet demands of this type of fuel produced in the province of Granada, where local distributors provide the housing popular bottles of 13 kg, and at service stations,

Repsol sold new lightweight bottles of 6 kg. The gas is supplied via trucks to industries and neighborhoods that have a direct gas pipeline from a reservoir that is more than one cylinder. The gas reaches hazard installations in railway cars from oil refineries and plants that are filling the empty bottles.

Natural Gas

The natural gas consumed in Granada and its metropolitan area, comes in a liquid state in Algeria, and small proportions of deposits in the provinces of Huelva and Seville. It is distributed by a core network of high responsibility, and from here ENAGAS distribution to homes and industries that use it is the responsibility of Gas Andalusia.

Natural gas consumption has been increasing as we build the distribution networks to homes. The Andalusian Energy Plan has decided to boost natural gas consumption compared to other products

Electricity

Granada and its metropolitan area is an area of high consumption of electricity and almost no production of the same, so the electricity consumed must be brought from long distances through various lines.

Transport of electricity throughout the country deals with monopoly company Red Electrica. Grenada Electricity comes in two high-voltage lines of 400 kV, one of them coming from the substation Fargue (Granada) and the other power plants Escombreras (Murcia).
