ITER AREAS ACTIVITIES PRESS ROOM VISITS RENEWABLE ENERGY THE RENEWABLE ENERGY AREA The ITER Renewable Energy Area is made up of the Photovoltaic Energy, Wind Energy and Sustainable Architecture departments. Its lines of work include carrying out renewable energy projects, helping to increase the weight of these energies in the island's energy balance. Thus, ITER has carried out the installation of around 41 MW in photovoltaic generation plants and has 13.16 MW distributed in three wind farms. This area also offers a series of services, including the design and manufacture of the necessary equipment (photovoltaic modules, structures, inverters, etc.) and the operation and maintenance tasks of said facilities, for which it has the Center for Operation and Maintenance of Renewable Installations and the CCG-ITER Generation Control Center. Another of its main activities is the development of R + D + I projects in the area of Renewable Energies, which are mainly oriented to the study and improvement of the processes for obtaining clean energy from the main natural energy resources of the Canary Islands. It has opted for smart electrical grids (Smart Grids) for the optimization of energy supply, the integration of renewable energies in buildings and for R + D + i in advanced techniques in sustainable architecture and urban planning. Likewise, the Area also works in cooperation for development and technology transfer with the ultimate objective of improving the living conditions of the local population in developing countries through the incorporation of renewable technologies.
