Quirónsalud hospitals recognized in world’s greenest hospitals ranking

Three hospitals from the Quirónsalud Group have been recognized in the inaugural ‘World’s Greenest Hospitals 2026’ ranking, produced by Newsweek in collaboration with Statista. The featured institutions include Hospital Universitario Fundación Jiménez Díaz, Hospital Ruber Internacional, and Centro Médico Teknon.

The ranking identifies eight Spanish hospitals among the top 250 most sustainable facilities globally. The evaluation utilizes a six-pillar methodology that assesses quantitative and qualitative data, including greenhouse gas emissions, energy use, water consumption, waste management, and international certifications such as LEED, BREEAM, or Energy Star.

Quirónsalud has integrated sustainability into its strategic planning through an Environmental Sustainability Plan, which aims to reduce CO2 emissions by 50% by 2030. Notable initiatives include the ‘Sustainable Anesthesia Project,’ designed to reduce environmental impact through clinical decision-making without compromising patient care quality.
