Can a piece of music capture a commitment to progress and sustainability? In this feature, we explore how Lucas Vidal—Emmy and double Goya award-winner—composed a musical theme to accompany ACCIONA’s work. Performed by the Prague Symphony Orchestra, it is a sound journey that fuses emotion, innovation and collective effort. 

After more than twenty years turning wind into energy, the blades of this Tahivilla wind turbine are beginning a new life, defined by sustainability and circular innovation, in the sole of a sneaker. Read the full story here.

Water takes centre stage at the Royal Palace of La Granja de San Ildefonso in Spain. Today, National Photography Prize winner Javier Vallhonrat, the palace’s Royal Plumber Luis Vallejo, and Ana Jiménez, Innovation Manager at ACCIONA, come together to uncover its mysteries in a contemplative documentary produced by ACCIONA in collaboration with PhotoESPAÑA and National Heritage. See it for yourself.

In the heart of northern Canada, ACCIONA has built one of its largest infrastructures on a global scale: a hydroelectric dam capable of supplying clean energy to nearly half a million homes. A milestone in sustainable engineering, built under extreme conditions and now a reality after nearly a decade of work. Discover it in this story.

Building a wind farm in Alberta (Canada) presents a unique technical and logistical challenge — but also a major opportunity. In an environment defined by extreme temperatures and demanding terrain, ACCIONA Energía has demonstrated its ability to adapt and innovate, bringing its largest wind farm in North America to life. Would you like to find out how they made it happen?

Based on a development by Boston Dynamics, Spot is the robotic dog adapted by ACCIONA — a machine specialized in working in tunnels and hard-to-reach areas, which we introduce to you in this feature.

COP30 ended with more funds for adaptation, progress in indigenous rights, and an issue still to be resolved – eliminating fossil fuels.

Ecological debt is accumulated by countries in the Northern Hemisphere with those in the South, due to both the North’s catastrophic consumption of natural resources and the pollution it causes. The consequences need to be assumed by the planet as a whole. But is it possible to quantify the loss of biodiversity, cost of a human life, or pollution in the food chain? What is nature’s price?

By creating special reserves, and using husbandry techniques passed on by word of mouth from generation to generation, indigenous communities have rescued the endangered American bison, also known as the buffalo. Not only does this mark a famous achievement in species conservation, but it’s helping combat climate change and recovering a unique cultural identity.

From the ocean to the greenhouse, from waste treatment to irrigation. This is how technological innovation and collective management is recycling water for the benefit of agriculture.

World Climate Change Day reminds us more strongly than ever: the impacts are clear, but so are the advances showing that the transition is already underway.

The future of cities could be cultivated from their neighborhoods. In the face of heat, pollution, and nature loss, urban agriculture offers us more than just food; it can be a tool for resilience, inclusion, and clean air for millions of people.

Analysis of geolocated images and social media sentiment, processed with AI, could help measure something as abstract as well-being — or so researchers at the University of Missouri believe. 

The surge in demand driven by the electrification of the economy, essential to the energy transition, will require colossal investment in grids supported by the digital and AI revolution.

Penn State University has launched a pilot programme to turn streetlights into charging points, reducing installation costs and improving access to electric vehicle charging in cities.

Researchers at Monash University have developed a modular, water-based redox flow battery that could make home energy storage safer, more affordable and less dependent on lithium.

A recent study points to the growing influence of artificial intelligence on how we express ourselves — and the changes may ultimately reshape our very sense of identity.

Whether in Singapore, Milan or other major cities around the world, the development of urban digital twins is enabling us to understand and manage modern urban planning with unprecedented efficiency. 

It’s not a list of rules or a goal to be achieved. Organisational culture defines how a company works, how it makes decisions and how it feels.

The leadership of the future will be built on technical skills — but above all, on strong values and the ability to adapt to a world that is in constant flux.

Flexibility in the office is no longer about choosing a desk. Liquid spaces turn the workplace into a living environment that shifts according to the team’s needs.

Moving abroad for work isn’t just about changing your postal address. It means opening a new chapter that reshapes your routines, relationships and ambitions. This guide will help you make an informed decision and land smoothly.

Neither talent nor experience fully explains why we work the way we do. Professional values are the hidden element that shapes vocation, leadership styles, and balance within organisations.

Meryem Hadri is Deputy Project Director at ACCIONA’s new desalination plant in Casablanca. Inspired by the women in her family, she pursued a career in science and today takes pride in working on a project with profound social impact.
