commitment to sustainability, and because we are convinced that caring for the environment is a collective responsibility, at Genesal Energy we have returned to the classrooms to create, in collaboration with the University of Santiago de Compostela (USC), the first Energy Transition Chair in Galicia.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The presentation was held in the rector&#8217;s hall of the San Xerome school and was chaired by the rector of the University of Santiago de Compostela (USC), <\/span><b>Antonio L\u00f3pez<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and by <\/span><b>Julio Arca<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, our Director of Finance and Strategy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At the event, the rector stressed that science &#8220;is a crucial piece for the transition and energy sovereignty&#8221; and expressed his conviction that this new Chair &#8220;is a step along the way as it intensifies the link between university activity and industry&#8221;. Meanwhile, the head of Finance and Strategy at Genesal Energy emphasized the importance of investing in clean energy and in solutions that allow progress to be made towards the energy transition.\u00a0 &#8220;The energy transition is essential in the actions against climate change. Transport, industry, and electricity generation account for 60% of greenhouse gas emissions, with the electricity sector having the greatest potential to reduce emissions&#8221;, explained Julio Arca in his speech.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The presentation of the Chair also featured the participation of <\/span><b>Gumersindo Feijoo Costa<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, vice-rector of Planning, Technologies and Sustainability of the USC; <\/span><b>Montserrat Valc\u00e1rcel Armesto<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, vice-rector of Coordination of the Lugo Campus; <\/span><b>Enrique Roca Bordello<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, director of the Chair; <\/span><b>Marcela Fern\u00e1ndez<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, head of the R&amp;D&amp;I Management Unit of Genesal Energy; <\/span><b>Paula Avenda\u00f1o<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, our head of Marketing and Communication, and <\/span><b>Marta Blanco<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, legal advisor of the company.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-9s974pa-accfc00b388d8daa4ae6431b96b7c67e\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-9s974pa-accfc00b388d8daa4ae6431b96b7c67e{\nheight:20px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-9s974pa-accfc00b388d8daa4ae6431b96b7c67e hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-5  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_image '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-9d0x1pq-cda5e07b51e51a80989f7f7efeb0e273\">\n.avia-image-container.av-9d0x1pq-cda5e07b51e51a80989f7f7efeb0e273 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-9d0x1pq-cda5e07b51e51a80989f7f7efeb0e273 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-9d0x1pq-cda5e07b51e51a80989f7f7efeb0e273 av-styling-no-styling avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-6  el_after_av_hr  el_before_av_hr '   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-40164 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-40164 avia_image ' src=\"https:\/\/genesalenergy.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/03\/presentacion-catedra-GENESAL-09-1030x582-1.jpg\" alt='' title='presentacion-catedra-GENESAL-09-1030x582'  height=\"582\" width=\"1030\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/genesalenergy.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/03\/presentacion-catedra-GENESAL-09-1030x582-1.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/genesalenergy.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/03\/presentacion-catedra-GENESAL-09-1030x582-1-300x170.jpg 300w, https:\/\/genesalenergy.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/03\/presentacion-catedra-GENESAL-09-1030x582-1-768x434.jpg 768w, https:\/\/genesalenergy.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/03\/presentacion-catedra-GENESAL-09-1030x582-1-705x398.jpg 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-16ukwjy-f70f9251c316a031a16e861ab71a1bc6\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-16ukwjy-f70f9251c316a031a16e861ab71a1bc6{\nheight:20px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-16ukwjy-f70f9251c316a031a16e861ab71a1bc6 hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-7  el_after_av_image  el_before_av_textblock '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-afkslzi-55dfba3577f679471238aaf3bc1558b6 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h3>What is the energy transition and why a chair in this field?<\/h3>\n<p>The energy transition is the process of transformation or set of changes that must be made to move from the current models of energy production, distribution, and consumption, based on the use of fossil fuels, to more sustainable ones based on the use of renewable energies, electrification and distributed production. Alternative fuels, digitalisation, energy efficiency and the circular economy are key to achieving this.<\/p>\n<p>We believe in public-private collaboration in the areas of knowledge management and its application in society. In this sense, the creation of the Energy Transition Chair will allow us to further strengthen collaboration with the University and intensify the relationship between university activity and the
