Today, Endesa''s General Manager in Aragón, Ignacio Montaner, and the Project Manager for the Mudéjar Fair Transition Hub promoted by Enel Green Power España, Ramón White, inaugurated in Andorra the training courses associated with Endesa''s future plan. The event took place this morning at Ítaca in Andorra and was attended by the acting mayor of Andorra, Joaquín Bielsa, INAEM''s Provincial Manager, Patricia Utrillas, together with technical and institutional representatives.
The course that was started today in Andorra is for solar installations for self-consumption and energy communities. It will be given by the Research Centre for Energy Resources and Consumption (CIRCE in Spanish) and will last 80 hours.
Today also saw the beginning in Calanda a 48-hour course on the Assembly of Panels, given by ECODEMY in the ATADI Special Employment Centre in Andorra. This 100-hour course consists of Composting, and forest screen clearance and maintenance and will be given by JUAN XXIII and ATADI. More than 250 people have registered for the course so far.
Endesa''s training programme is entitled the Rural School of Sustainable Energy, and constitutes one of the training axes for Endesa''s social-economic plan for the Mudéjar Hub, and includes a programme consisting of more than 300,000 hours of training over the next 3 years related to the activity to be generated by renewable plants.
There will be 5,000 beneficiaries and priority will be given to the most vulnerable groups such as young people, women, the unemployed and people included in the Fair Transition Market. The objective of the training programme is to increase trust, attachment to the local community and the employability of workers in the area and is one of the measures designed to create shared value contemplated in Endesa''s Future plan.
The training plan consists of an initial block in renewable energies, which will involve a number of courses, for solar panel assembly, the operation and maintenance of renewable installations and the installation of solar power for self-consumption. The courses will be given by ECODEMY, CIRCE and SOLTEC.
A second block of training in activities for the primary sector, which will be organised in collaboration with benchmark entities in the area such as AFAMMER (Association of Families and Women in the Rural Environment), ASAJA (Association of Young Agricultural Workers) APADRINA UN OLIVO (Sponsor an olive tree), Juan XXIII Foundation and ATADI for people with disabilities. More than 30 training modules have been defined, ranging from drone piloting, truffle cultivation, organic farming, aromatics, e-commerce, beekeeping, etc.
And a third block dedicated to training in Biodiversity: Environmental coordination in renewable energies, environmental coordination in the procedure for environmental impact assessment for projects and development of environmental monitoring in the construction of wind farms, photovoltaic solar plants and evacuation infrastructures. The courses will be given by LINUM and CRN Ambiental San Blas.
The objective of the plan is to improve the employability and requalification of people in the surrounding area in activities with high potential for employment. One of the great benefits of this training is that all students will become part of the Escuela Rural Employment Exchange, which will give priority access to jobs related to the Endesa project in Andorra, both the renewable project and the different initiatives included in the social-economic plan.
It involves high quality training, given by benchmark entities and totally free of charge for students who will be taught in five different locations to make it more accessible to fair transition municipalities.
The courses are eminently practical and of short duration. Those in primary sector last about 15 hours and those on biodiversity 1 month. The programming has different timetables, in the morning and in the evening, to make it easier for both active and unemployed people to attend.
The courses to be given throughout June and July will be those on Panel assembly of panels and maintenance of renewable plants and they will take place in Albalate del Arzobispo and Calanda. The courses on Beekeeping and Digitalisation will take place in Utrillas and Andorra, those on Drones and organic farming, in Albalate and Andorra and those on Biodiversity, in Alcorisa.
To register for these courses, go to the website:, or it can be done in person by going to the INAEM offices in Andorra, Alcañiz and Utrillas, or by calling or sending a WHATSAPP to the following telephone numbers:
The thermal power plant in Teruel (Andorra) was in operation for more than four decades and created a deep-rooted bond with the surrounding area. Once Endesa requested the closure of the plant in 2019, the dismantling process began with a plan for the future of the region that included the implementation of new industry and the development of new power, in this case, renewable.
The renewable development proposed by Endesa for Andorra does not only involve the construction of new wind and solar capacity, but also the hybridisation of these projects and storage with two battery plants, which makes them unique since they will make it possible to get the most out of these technologies, with higher quality and energy security and a balanced service by producing as many hours as possible. The new renewable plants will be located in Albalate del Arzobispo, Híjar, Samper de Calanda, Castelnou, Andorra, Calanda, Alcañiz, La Puebla de Híjar, Jatiel, and Alcorisa.
In addition to these projects there will also be a 15 MW electrolyser that will enable the management of surplus renewable energy for the production of green hydrogen that will help decarbonise industries in the surrounding area, the construction of an electrolyser factory, and a synchronous compensator that will enable this renewable energy to be discharged more frequently which will improve the performance of the electricity transport grid.

The sensors are part of a system called TerMITes: small, wireless electronic devices that, when placed throughout a building, can measure human presence, ambient light, motion, carbon dioxide, temperature, and humidity. The TerMITes were installed in the Escola Andorrana d''Andorra la Vella, an elementary school with 400 students in Santa Coloma, Andorra la Vella. Forty-two rooms were outfitted with TerMITes sensors. Some classrooms received additional sensors that record how frequently windows, doors, and curtains are moved.
The TerMITes were designed at the MIT Media Lab to fill a niche, allowing low-cost, easy-to-use sensors to be widely deployed in places that do not have the resources to support commercial sensor installation. These sensors provide an end-to-end solution, requiring only a smartphone and a Wi-Fi network for installation. Once the TerMITes are installed, sensor readings are transmitted automatically to a server that makes them available for visualization through a website or mobile application. Taken together, these measurements provide the basis for a model of how buildings function as a dynamic ecosystem.

Electronautes. The name of the project was inspired by the drawings the students made when they were first exposed to the sensors in their classrooms. Students captured concepts such as technology, environmental responsibility/awareness, and observation in these drawings .
The TerMITes deployment provided an opportunity to design and implement a long-lasting, profound learning experience for the students. Traditional visualization tools, such as charts and numbers, need to be adapted to specific audiences through more familiar and engaging experiences; this is especially true for children in the 8- to 10-year-old range, who have no prior experience with sensors and data. Therefore,mapping sensor data with personal perceptionbecame the cornerstone of this pilot.
