Landscape, energy and climate change

Landscape, energy and climate change

Catalonia is fully immersed in a scenario of energy transition. And it is in this process of transition that renewal energies become especially relevant to the point of creating new energy landscapes unheard of thus far. This new scenario is an opportunity to learn and apply novel ways of relating to contemporary energy landscapes, and to building a new vision of this type of renewal energy.
