ACCIONA Energía has announced an agreement with America’s Cup Event to become the official energy partner of the Louis Vuitton 37^th America’s Cup, to be held in Barcelona between August and October this year.

As part of this strategic collaboration, ACCIONA Energía will sponsor ’Chase Zero’, the official hydrogen-powered foiling chase boat, which will be powered by green hydrogen for the first time in the competition’s history. In addition, the company will install solar panels for self-consumption on the roof of its pavilion, at the Official Hospitality Centre, at the AC37 Club, and at the base of Emirates Team New Zealand.

This agreement results from the shared commitment of ACCIONA Energía and America’s Cup Event to sustainability, innovation and excellence.

The America’s Cup, in addition to being the oldest international sporting trophy in the world (dating back to 1851), is renowned for its high level of innovation. The boats competing in this prestigious regatta are equipped with state-of-the-art technology, earning it the nickname ‘the Formula 1™ of the sea.’

Through this collaboration, ACCIONA Energía reaffirms its commitment to innovation and sustainability, and moves forward in its commitment to green hydrogen as a key energy source to decarbonise sectors such as the nautical industry.
