A combined geothermal and solar energy project is to amp up production for a major transportation hub in Spain’s capital.
The Geobatt Project’s hybrid renewable energy storage system, which is a combination of geothermal technology and solar panels, has been supplying the Moncloa Transit Hub for approximately six months now, and aims to increase that supply to 33 percent. The multi-level station is a major point of transit for buses and metro lines in Madrid’s city center. It experiences a substantial amount of visitor and transit traffic throughout the day, and the heat from that immense activity creates a high demand for air conditioning.
