Abengoa
Annual Report 2010
Letter from the Chairman
In an economic environment characterized by the financial crisis that is affecting every country to a greater or lesser degree, we must bear in mind the threat posed by failing to continue forward towards a sustainable economic model to enable the optimization of the natural resources still available to us, while championing the use of renewable energies, and categorically addressing the social and environmental costs involved by incorporating them into the price of each product.
In order to make this a reality, we need society as a whole (governments, businesses and citizens alike) to embrace an unwavering commitment to technological innovation as the only path to attaining genuine and viable solutions capable of resolving the problems associated with the current model. However, the development of new solutions calls for heavy investment, meaning that the determined involvement of Public Administration is crucial in order to create a stable, secure and long-term regulatory framework.
