RENEWABLE ENERGY
Alcaidesa Marina took an important step towards clean energy in 2023 by installing solar panels on the roof of its dry-storage building. The system is estimated to generate around 240 MWh annually, avoiding approximately 82 tonnes of CO₂ emissions each year.
Alcaidesa Marina has dedicated hazardous-waste collection points, for used oil, bilge water, batteries and other waste, all managed by an authorised waste contractor. Separate recycling containers for plastics, glass and paper are provided throughout the marina.
A wastewater treatment plant in the boatyard treats the water used to clean vessels.
WASTE MANAGEMENT AND WATER TREATMENT
PREVENTION AND CLEANING OF OUR SURROUNDINGS
The marina holds regular emergency drills , including exercises to contain fuel spills on the water, to ensure readiness for environmental incidents.
Since 2017 Alcaidesa has organised an annual seabed clean-up day, bringing together diving clubs and volunteers. These activities have removed significant quantities of waste from the harbour seabed, contributing to a cleaner coastline. The long-running initiative demonstrates a practical commitment to the local community and environmental education.
From the beginning, the marina has participated in the educational programme of La Línea de la Concepción City Council through the annual ‘Discover Your Harbour’ activity, attended by around 400 local primary-school pupils each year. Children learn about the important marine species along our coast, the need to protect the environment and responsible waste management, particularly to prevent plastic pollution.
The marina also works with the Marinas de Andalucía Association on awareness programmes and with Ecolocaliza, a local organisation specialising in environmental education and cetacean watching.
