69% of Spanish households had a broadband Internet subscription at the end of 2013, whereas the figure for the European Union was 76%. The data were gathered in a comparative report published recently by the European Commission, which confirms Spain remains below the EU average in numerous digital agenda indicators, such as broadband penetration, Internet use and online shopping.<\/p>\n

The report also explains that the percentage of high-speed connections (at least 30 Mbps) is also below the EU average (15% compared to 21%), whereas ultra-fast connections (at least 100 Mbps) make up 6% of the total (5% in the EU).<\/p>\n

Regarding the mobile telephone sector, 4G was available in Spain for 47% of the population, compared to 59% in the EU. However, the mobile broadband subscription rate was 73%, above the community-wide average of 62%. In 2013, 66% of Spanish citizens stated that they use the Internet weekly, below the EU average of 72%. Spain also posted lower daily Internet use rates (54% compared to 62% in the EU). Last year, 24% of the Spanish population confirmed that they had never been online, a figure above the EU average of 20%.<\/p>\n

With regard to online shopping, the report sets forth that 32% of Spaniards had purchased products or services online in the previous year, a figure well below the EU average (47%). Additionally, only 30% of major Spanish companies sell online (compared to 35% in the EU), although this percentage drops to 12% (compared to 14%) for SMEs.<\/p>\n

On a more positive note, 44% of the Spanish population use the Internet for e-management services, above the community-wide average of 41%. Likewise, Spain exceeds the EU average in e-health services, with 54% of hospitals having a high-speed connection (36% in the EU) and 21% allowing patients to access, in part or in full, their medical history (compared to 9% in the EU).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
