The official kick-off meeting of the SEAFUEL project was held in Galway, Ireland, on January 25th and 26th 2018. With a total budget of 3,497,632,98€ and for 3 years, the SEAFUEL project aims to use the renewable resources across the Atlantic Area to power the local transport fleet and support [...]
With these two projects, ITER seeks to promote sustainable tourism through energy efficiency, renewable energy and ICT. ITER participated in the VIII edition of the Innovation Forum fi2, organized by the Cabildo Insular de Tenerife through Intech, which took place on September, 26-27 at the exhibition grounds of Santa Cruz [...]
The European photovoltaic solar energy conference and exhibition (EU PVSEC 2017) is the largest international conference for photovoltaic research, technologies and applications, and at the same time a top international photovoltaic industry exhibition. ITER participated with three articles on the latest results of its research in the field of solar [...]
EGU General Assembly 2017 brings together geoscientists from all around the world in a meeting covering all disciplines of the Earth Sciences in Vienna (Austria). Scientists from the Institute of Technology and Renewable Energies (ITER), Volcanological Institute of the Canary Islands (INVOLCAN), and the Tenerife Energy Agency (AIET) travelled to [...]
The Taal volcano has erupted violently several times and is located about 50 kilometers from Manila, the capital of the Philippines. Scientist from ITER and the Volcanology Institute of the Canary Islands (INVOLCAN) have travelled to the Philippines during the second half of March to collaborate with the National Institute [...]
ITER particpates as partner in the PLASMAC project, a new project led by the Cabildo of Tenerife through its Open Government Area. The main objective of the project is the creation of a cloud platform to improve the socio – health care offered to the Macaronesian population: specifically in the [...]
The Genomics Area´s laboratory of ITER has succeeded in sequencing 10 complete human genome tests, i.e., determining the base sequence that make up human DNA. After acquiring two massive DNA sequencers in September 2016 to the U.S. multinational Illumina for one million euros, development of experimental and bioinformatics protocols are [...]
This project, which will be developed by ITER throughout this year, is framed within the collaboration that the Cabildo de Tenerife maintains with Senegal, through the External Action Area. The project will be implemented in the village of Ndangalma where a photovoltaic kit will be installed in order to provide [...]
This science news service of the American Institute of Physics (AIP) has highlighted it among the thousands of scientific papers presented at the AGU 2016 Fall Meeting held recently in the city of San Francisco. ITER researchers and scientific collaborators of the Volcanology Institute of the Canary Islands (INVOLCAN) lead [...]
The purpose is to quantify the extension and intensity of the surface geothermal anomalies in Timanfaya National Park and to evaluate its thermoelectric generation potential in order to contribute to the development of geothermal energy in Lanzarote. The Institute of Technology and Renewable Energies participates in a scientific cooperation work [...]
