On March 1st, the General Deputy of Biscay, Unai Rementeria Maiz, and the general director of Nexus Energía, Joan Canela Cardona, signed in Bilbao the contract for the supply of natural gas to the institution. In this way, Nexus Energía will supply a total of 85 GWh of natural gas for two years to 366 supply points of the Provincial Council of Bizkaia, associated organizations such as the Euskalduna Conference and Music Center and 32 municipalities such as Galdakao, Leioa, Erandio, Arrigorriaga, Balmaseda or Getxo.
Nexus Energía presented the best economic offer with an important saving of 20% compared to the competition. In addition, it complied with the technical requirements requested such as having offices in the area, customer service and web access, giving advice and training, as well as bilingual billing in Basque and Spanish.
In addition, the power company also supplies GISPASA's Asturian hospitals since the beginning of the year. As the cheapest offer, Nexus Energía was awarded 3 supply points at the Central University Hospital of Asturias and the Vital Álvarez Buylla Hospital in Mieres, for a total of 44.5 GWh of natural gas.
Nexus Energía obtained the license to commercialize natural gas in 2004 and since then its portfolio has grown steadily in both the public and business sectors. At present, natural gas represents 50% of its total portfolio, equal in volume with electricity.
