At Iberdrola group we have begun a pilot project based on using blockchain to guarantee, in real time, that the energy supplied and consumed is 100 % renewable. Using this technology, we have managed to link plants where electricity is produced to specific points of consumption, allowing the source of the energy to be traced. This increases transparency and ultimately encourages the use of renewable energy.

Reducing emissions and moving towards decarbonising energy are two fundamental objectives for safeguarding the planet. To achieve this, combining the most competitive renewable energies, as wind, photovoltaic and hydraulic energy, in hybrid installations — that can be complemented by storage systems — is proving to be an effective tool for delivering clean and efficient energy.

Neurotechnology, which, hand in hand with neuroscience, seeks to unravel the enigmas of the brain, is not a new discipline, but with the meteoric development of artificial intelligence it opens up a world of almost infinite possibilities. On the one hand, there are questions about the applications, which may even include curing brain injuries, and, on the other, about the limits derived from the union between brain and machine, to the point that concepts such as neuro-rights are beginning to become popular.

A non-fungible token (NFT) is a unique, unrepeatable and indivisible digital asset that, linked to the development of blockchain technology and the cryptocurrency phenomenon, is gaining more and more attention. Auction houses, for example, are positioning themselves to use this technology, as are artists, athletes and even gamers. Below, we look at the peculiarities of these digital assets and why they are booming.

Just as in your life you have an identity that defines you and differentiates you from others according to your name, traits, personal characteristics, acts... On the Internet you also have what is known as digital identity.

Approximately 16% of the world's population, namely around 1.3 billion people, suffer from some form of disability (UN). This figure will only increase due to demographic growth and the ageing population. The transport industry is working hard to ensure their mobility is not a further limitation.
