Félix Solís is moving towards a more efficient model, with 99 per cent of its energy coming from renewable sources

One of the key projects in this transformation is in Valdepeñas, where Félix Solís operates a solar farm to supply the winery’s own consumption. The installation covers an area equivalent to seven football pitches and currently generates 24 per cent of the electricity consumed by the winery.
However, the company’s energy transition is not limited to replacing conventional sources with renewables. Reducing the amount of energy required for production is an equally essential part of this process. Since 2022, Félix Solís has reduced the electricity required to produce each litre of product by 6 per cent, thanks to the gradual introduction of efficiency measures across its processes and facilities.
This combination of renewable energy, on-site generation and reduced consumption also has a direct impact on the company’s carbon footprint. Since 2022, absolute Scope 2 emissions (those associated with electricity consumption) have been reduced by more than 90 per cent.
“Sustainability cannot be viewed as something separate from our business. For us, it means continually reviewing how we produce, how we use energy and how we can make every process more efficient. The aim is to reduce our environmental impact, but also to build a more efficient production model that is prepared for the challenges of the future,” explains Felipe González, Head of Sustainability and Environment at Félix Solís Avantis.
This approach extends beyond energy and forms part of a strategy to improve efficiency across the company’s entire operations and move towards a more circular production model. In 2025, over 98 per cent of the waste generated by Félix Solís was sent for recovery, diverting it from landfill.
As part of this approach, the Valdepeñas winery holds the Sustainable Wineries for Climate Protection (SWfCP) certification from the Spanish Wine Federation, which accredits its environmental, social, economic and governance management.
“We are working to ensure that every step forward has a real impact on our operations. The solar farm is one of the most visible projects, but it forms part of a broader strategy to consume less energy, reduce emissions and make our production model increasingly efficient,” concludes González.
