About This Project
LA CORRIENTE Cooperative Society – LCTE: La Corriente is an electric cooperative from Madrid that act as own marketer.
La Corriente provides 100% renewable energy and allows installations for the energy self-production, as well as charging points for electric vehicles.
La Corriente provides wind, hydraulic and solar power to over 300 members, one of whom says their electricity bill has more than halved since joining.
As the cooperative is not-for-profit, it can offer competitive prices that are in line with those of the big suppliers. The Mercado de San Fernando market in Lavapiés is one of the cooperative’s members. A team of professionals from La Corriente visited the building, which was built after the Spanish Civil War, to see what measures could be implemented to make it better insulated.
