Since the Industrial Revolution, there has been consensus on the existence of six waves of innovation that have transformed both the economy and society.
In the transition towards a decarbonised and digitised economy, European funds are an invaluable economic aid, capable of accelerating projects that contribute to cohesion, sustainable and inclusive growth, job creation and care for the environment.
To innovate is to turn knowledge into value. It is a process by which a new or improved product or service is successfully introduced into a market. On that basis, there are many ways to innovate in the field of clean energy.
Twin transition refers to a transformation that goes beyond business models, value chain processes or technologies.
In a changing world, sustainability is emerging strongly as the strategy to address global challenges and move towards a more socially and environmentally responsible future.

Methane emissions are the second largest contributor to global warming after carbon dioxide emissions.
Eighty percent of goods are moved by sea. It is therefore essential to move towards the decarbonization of the sector.
The metaverse can be an opportunity for the energy sector. As with any technological advance, the possibilities will be exponential as its use becomes more popular.
Energy-from-Waste (EfW) is a waste-to-energy process in which energy is generated from the treatment of waste.
Industry is the largest contributor to the European economy, accounting for 20% of GDP and providing jobs and prosperity to the continent. But the path to a carbon-free future, set for 2050, and the ongoing need for innovation pose new challenges that industry needs to address to maintain its competitiveness levels.
Europe generates a large amount of waste from multiple sources, which is a major environmental problem. In the energy sector, where there is widespread awareness of this issue, measures are being taken and biogas is one of the great hopes for reversing the situation.

Is it a coincidence that in the last two decades we’ve had 18 of the hottest years since records began?
Decarbonisation and the drive towards a circular economy require the development of non-electrical renewable energies such as hydrogen or biogas/biomethane.
Enagás understands the role that companies play in such an opportunity as Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) opens and therefore has incorporated them into its strategy.
Let's think of a completely electrified world. A world in which we all travel on electric bicycles, cars, trains, aeroplanes and even electric vessels. A world in which entire cities run on solar panels and all electrical infrastructure runs from smart grids and giant batteries.
