Summer is coming to an end and with it, traditional summer plans give way to another type of tourism. One of the favorites of these dates are cultural trips and family events to different parts of the national geography. In the current context, increased interest in all things renewable energies. Spain is definitely the international benchmark in this regard and offers a variety of museums or spaces to learn about them. Education centers are also natural buyers of these facilities.
Fundeen, the platform that allows individuals to invest in renewable energy projects, has chosen the most interesting proposals for those looking for alternative plans for all ages. Enjoy learning, a motivating complement to the start of the school year.
Catalonia Science and Technology Museum (Terrassa, Barcelona)
In Terrassa, very close to Barcelona, is the Museum of Science and Technology of Catalonia. In his exhibition, he takes a historical tour of energy and its production as a fundamental engine since the industrial stage.
It offers experiences to its visitors. Demonstrations such as the Faraday cage and large-format historical objects such as the Fontaine turbinesteam engines and different models.
Of course, it also has a terrace where different installations reflect the importance of the sun as an inexhaustible source of energy and its future use as one of the main challenges. The center also has a facade made of solar panels.

Science and Water Museum (Murcia)
In Murcia, there is the Science and Water Museum, which aims to arouse curiosity and bring scientific knowledge to the public in an entertaining and participatory way.
in your facilities special attention to water, its different properties and uses, as well as its function as an energy source. Also, clean and sustainable energy demonstrations are repeated in the temporary exhibition hall, a common theme in the workshop programme.

Aresketamendi Park (Amurrio, Álava)
In the municipality of Amurrio, in the Basque province of Álava, Renewable Energy Interpretation Park. It has an open exhibition area of 22,600 square meters, aiming to provide education on clean energy.
A nearly one kilometer spiral walkway introduces the different areas it is in. how energy can be obtained from air, sun, water and biomass. The facility, which is especially recommended for children to visit, has 26 mills that teach different techniques to obtain energy. There are also many models and panels related to various sources.
The park’s facilities are solar powered, and those that are not consumed are diverted to the electricity grid. Currently -remember from Füneen- it is freely accessible without guided tours or exhibits to use.

Castilla-La Mancha Science Museum (Cuenca)
In the heart of Cuenca’s Old Town, declared a World Heritage Site, is the Science Museum of Castilla-La Mancha. It stands out for its attractions such as the Planetarium, its evolution-related rooms, or a reproduction of the International Space Station module, among others.
Also for the area devoted to renewable energies, with a fully interactive and very educational approach. ie visitors they can run wind turbines with the wind they produce by pedaling a bicycle or directly manage a photovoltaic solar park.. “The balance of the electrical system becomes a game,” says Fundeen, a reference Fintech in the industry.

Hidden Street (Zaragoza)
Zaragoza hosts La Calle Indiscreta, an innovative environmental education class aimed at teaching how to act against climate change. It recreates the intersection of streets, replacing the health center, real estate agency, supermarket, park, recycling containers and other spaces, replacing a house with a kitchen, living room and bathroom. The space is complete with a space for workshops and events.
Especially interesting ones The Urban Machine (an interactive model of a city’s flows, including energy flows) or recommendations for more sustainable consumption in the home.

Renewable Energy Development Center (Lubia, Soria)
The Center for the Development of Renewable Energies (CEDER) in Soria specializes in applied research, development and promotion of renewable energies. R&D and development activities focus on the energy use of biomass throughout the value chain. Studies on wind energy in low-power wind turbines and the search for practical solutions to integrate renewable generation sources into smart microgrids.
It also has an informative and instructive aspect. The center can be visited by prior reservation via the form on the website.

Renewable Energies Circuit (Pozuelo de Alarcón, Madrid)
Pozuelo de Alarcón Environmental Education Classroom, located in the Húmera region next to the Forest Park of the town of Madrid, has one of the most avant-garde renewable energy circuits in Spain. The star fragment is a solar parabola, a smart concentrator that can make the most of solar energy.
As explained by Fundeen, this educational tour 20 clean energy generation systemsLike various photovoltaic systems, some of which mimic nature. In the field of thermal energy, the center also incorporates a variety of more efficient hot water production systems, both conventional systems and vacuum tubes. Light chimneys or systems that generate energy from biomass, among others, are also included.

Science Park (Granada)
Granada Science Park is one of Spain’s most visited museums, thanks to claims like the BioDome, which collects fauna and flora from the diverse natural habitats of the tropical regions and the evergreen and moist forests of the planet.
The complex features three solar roofs, including the Macroscope roof, which is rated as the largest architecturally integrated photovoltaic installation in Andalusia. They fulfill two functions: on the one hand, as solar energy producers, and on the other, as promotional-educational facilities that inform visitors about the features and advantages of solar energy. They are fully visitable.
