Spanish start-up SubSea Mechatronics (SSM) is working, in collaboration with Iberdrola, on the development of a submersible ROV capable of travelling through the cooling pipes of our thermal power plants, providing positioning and visual documentation for inspection and cleaning accumulated sediments or biofouling that hinder the correct flow of water.

Batteries play a key role in the storage of renewable energies in order to conserve surplus production and supply it whenever it is needed. There is a wide range of batteries available on the market, made from different materials and in a variety of sizes. Discover the importance of battery dimensions and how they affect performance in different applications, from electric vehicles to solar power systems.

Decarbonisation of industry through electrification is essential to tackle climate change, use energy more efficiently and foster innovation. This is a crucial step towards a more sustainable and resilient future, so let's look at the best options to achieve this by assessing the various alternatives.

Digitalisation is increasingly gaining prominence in the energy sector and is the key to the integration of energy efficiency. A range of new digital technologies being developed today will help accelerate the expansion of renewables in the future, collecting and analysing vast amounts of data to make the system more efficient and carbon-free.

Changes in the way we produce and consume energy are driving significant innovations in transmission and distribution networks as well as in electricity storage, which provide a solid and reliable basis for electricity grids increasingly powered by renewable energy.

Iberdrola today held the ninth edition of its Digital Summit with more than 1,500 employees attending the event, held at the company's campus in San Agustín del Guadalix (Madrid). The company's commitment to digitalization is reflected in its...
