Companies

Ades is a Spanish engineering company that is a pioneer in R&D. Incorporated in 1992, the company develops its own renewable energy technologies. Within Spain, in the Canary Islands the company participates in the Agua de Maspalomas Project where it uses wind power to operate a pumping station, while it also uses wind turbines to desalinate water on the island of Fuerteventura. In Aragon, it provides the air conditioning for government offices; and in Barcelona, it has installed 900 pumping stations that extract water from a depth of 400 metres using wind turbines with hydrostatic transmission. Other state-of-the-art applications in which Ades is involved include: the electrification of the island of Maio (Cape Verde); the Solar Project in southern Baja California; the Wind Project in Tehuantepec (Mexico); and the micro-network of solar and wind installations on the Guajira peninsular (Colombia). Ades also operates in Italy, Greece, Latvia, the United States and Peru. It forms part of the Sinter Project (Intelligent systems to stabilise electrical grids) financed by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation.
