The XIII Jornadas Españolas de Presas underscore innovation and adaptation to climate change The XIII Jornadas Españolas de Presas, organized by the Spanish National Committee on Large Dams (SPANCOLD), took place from June 17 to 20 at the World Trade Center in Barcelona. These conferences, which have been held since 1985 in various locations in Spain, were hosted by the Ebro Hydrographic Confederation and the Catalan Water Agency (ACA), with the collaboration of CIMNE. Several key points were underlined during the event: - How to apply the Technical Safety Standards for Dams and Reservoirs. - Innovation in the design and operation of dams. - The need to adapt to climate change. In addition, the development of hydro energy storage was highlighted as a key element for the safe integration of renewable energy, which is essential for a successful energy transition. We thank all organizers and participants for such an enriching event and look forward to continuing to contribute to sustainability and water security. #JornadasPresas #Innovation #ClimateChange #EnergyTransition #IDOM --------------------------------------------- Las XIII Jornadas Españolas de Presas resaltan la innovación y adaptación al cambio climático Del 17 al 20 de junio, hemos tenido el honor de participar en las #XIIIJornadasEspañolasdePresas , organizadas por el SPANCOLD - Comité Nacional Español de Grandes Presas en el World Trade Center de Barcelona.

After an extended vacation in Europe, I'm deeply impressed by the remarkable commitment to green technology and sustainability in both Germany and Slovenia. Germany's "Energiewende" policy stands as a shining example of transitioning away from fossil fuels, with impressive wind farms in the North Sea and a robust expansion of renewable energy sources. Their efficient public transportation system, including electric trains and extensive tram networks, showcases their dedication to energy efficiency. Germany's Passive House standard ensures sustainable building designs, and the availability of ESG investment opportunities, along with exemplary recycling programs like the "Green Dot" and "Pfand" systems, reinforces their holistic approach to green living. Slovenia, though smaller in size, is a beacon of environmental consciousness. Its focus on renewable energy, particularly hydropower and geothermal sources, aligns with its stunning natural landscapes, like Lake Bled. The "Green Scheme" certification highlights eco-friendly businesses, while the Carinthian Lakes Region promotes sustainable mobility through electric boats and e-bikes. Slovenia's protected areas, such as Triglav National Park, offer responsible tourism opportunities, and their dedication to preserving native bee populations reflects their commitment to biodiversity and sustainable agriculture. Both countries showcase that sustainability and green technology can coexist harmoniously with a high quality of life and thriving tourism industries. Can't wait to share this with my colleagues tomorrow during our sectional meeting! #ESG #greenfuture #greentechnology #sustainability

Sjeverozapadna Hrvatska, or North-west Croatia, is the H2CE region we wish to present today. 🔍 The region of Sjeverozapadna Hrvatska offers a captivating mixture of historical and modern elements, immersed in a widely diverse natural landscape. The region stretches from the capital city of Zagreb 🏙 , whose rich history brings together a picture of contemporary life and historical architecture. Beyond the city, the scenery includes hills, vineyards, and historic towns, such as Krapina and Samobor. The region is home to two of H2CE's partners: ❇North West Croatia Regional Energy and Climate Agency (REGEA) ❇ City Office for Economy, Environmental Sustainability and Strategic Planning Sector for Energy & Climate Grad Zagreb With H2CE, Sjeverozapadna Hrvatska and the other regions will join forces to address the common #challenges in integrating hydrogen solutions and renewable energies into regional energy planning and development, in order to reduce #GHGemissions from different sectors. #SjeverozapadnaHrvatska #NorthwestCroatia #H2CE #Zagreb #Krapina #Samobor #REGEA #SustainabilityPartners #RegionalEnergyPlanning #RenewableEnergyIntegration #GHGReduction #HydrogenSolutions Ivan Ivanković Filip Ćurko Marko Kućan Valentina Đurek Martina Krizmanić Pećnikć

Drinking water by Desalination? 🤔 I think this article will be interesting to read 👀
At a time when the city of Barcelona is transporting water by boat from Majorca and Marseille, the ATL teams are banking on Filtralite®, an innovative filtering material. To cope with the current water restrictions and exceptional drought, ATL, which operates 2 desalination plants and 3 drinking water production plants in the Barcelona region, supplying water to 4.5 million inhabitants, has decided to invest in its filtration process to save water. Santiago Gonzalez Avellana, the plant manager, wrote in Smart Water Magazine 💧 about his experience with Filtralite®. Here are some key figures: - Reduction in the number of backwashes by 66% - Return on investment estimated at 2.3 years - Energy savings of 60% compared with using sand - Increase filtration speed to 15m/h - Increase in production capacity from 3.3 to 4m3/s. #water #drinkingwater #waterefficiency #savewater ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ En un momento en que la ciudad de Barcelona está transportando agua en barco desde Mallorca y Marsella, los equipos de ATL apuestan por Filtralite®, un material filtrante innovador.
