Madrid/Spain – Repsol and Asaja have signed a collaboration agreement to promote projects that focus on the circular economy to promote sustainability in rural areas. Both entities will share their knowledge and capabilities to seek solutions to improve the management of agricultural and livestock by-products in rural and sparsely populated environments where logistics can be a major obstacle. Repsol will analyze the potential of these wastes and by-products as new raw materials for the manufacture of renewable fuels and circular materials in its industrial complexes.

Another common line of work contemplates the reuse of by-products from the refining industry as fertilizers in agricultural soils to increase their yield and productivity. With these projects, both entities will promote the creation of new local value chains that induce employment in rural areas affected by depopulation.
