Responsible consumption
Care more, buy better
Net Zero Objective: Our self-consumption photovoltaic installation already generates 50% of our electricity consumption.
Sevilla Fashion Outlet continues to take steps forward in its zero emissions goals. As part of its commitment to renewable energy and sustainable building, our center has one of the most advanced self-consumption photovoltaic installations of its kind.
It is a solar field of more than 3,500m2 installed on the roofs of our shopping destination, with 1,098 modules capable of producing a total peak power of 608 kWp. A breakthrough that allows us to produce 50% of our electricity consumption in a self-managed way.
This installation has been partially financed with the help of the European Union under the NextGenerationEU Fund, in the framework of the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan, within the incentive program linked to self-consumption and storage, with renewable energy sources, as well as the implementation of renewable thermal systems in the residential sector of the Ministry for Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge, managed by the Andalusian Regional Government, through the Andalusian Energy Agency.
CERTIFICATES AND PARTNERS
One of our main goals is to build a more sustainable shopping center in collaboration with our parent company VIA OUTLET, as well as with our certification partners. The goal of our center is to become a European leader in terms of sustainability and environmental awareness, as well as to be a positive influence on our partners. And, as part of working towards this goal, we regularly undergo evaluations by renowned international institutions.
SUSTAINABLE FASHION
More than 150 billion items of clothing are produced each year. In turn, clothing represents 9% of all waste produced and recycling fashion is not easy due to the wide variety of materials used. This is why we must think about the impact of our consumption when buying a new garment. Every customer can contribute to sustainability by supporting recycled products and preferring quality over quantity.

MOBILITY
The future of transportation lies in alternative mobility to the car: electric vehicles powered by renewable resources, public transport, bicycles or car and motorcycle sharing. E-mobility is a fundamental change that we want to cultivate in the coming years.
RESPONSIBLE USE
WASTE MANAGEMENT
Thanks to recycling, more than 700 million tons of CO2 emissions are eliminated each year, which offsets all the CO2 produced by the aerospace industry. We are increasingly paying attention to recycling waste from our stores, restaurants, and cafés because the more waste we recycle, the less pressure there will be on the environment by burning it or sending it to a landfill.
WATER USAGE
Water scarcity is a major problem in many European regions, and estimates for the 21st century show increasing drought across much of the continent. That's why, because we believe water must be cared for as the valuable resource it is, we use timer faucets in all our centers. These are very useful for contributing to water savings as they allow water to flow for a few seconds and then shut off automatically.
SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
We feel obliged to help those in need and those who have fewer opportunities. We believe in an egalitarian society in which the differences are smaller every day. For this reason, we support and direct charitable and humanitarian activities and projects that help to unite society and offer help to those who need it most.
