For over 93 years, DISA has been a cornerstone of energy supply in the Canary Islands, reflecting its strong connection to the region. The company’s evolution mirrors the archipelago’s development in sectors like industry and tourism. DISA’s backing of small and medium-sized enterprises is vital in overcoming the unique geographic and logistical challenges of the islands.
With a network of nearly 200 service stations and multiple storage facilities, DISA ensures energy distribution across all eight islands, including remote locations such as La Graciosa.

The company is diversifying into renewable energy sources and investigating geothermal potential, aiming to provide environmentally friendly solutions.
