Wind - Water - Heat - Sun: The power is around us

General description

Have you ever dreamt about getting electricity from the air, from the sun or from the earth?

Nowardays we all know that this is quite possible and also viable, but maybe what we don’t know is how to make it possible, technologically and economically speaking.

Would you like to learn how to design one of those systems ? Would you like to visit a Research Centre for Energy where the lattest technologies are being developed?

Not enough for you... You want even more? In the non-academical part, you will be able to enjoy the best "sangria" during the greatest parties a bunch of crazy Spaniards can organize.

We won´t tell you anymore; if you want to have an unforgettable experience, apply and you will have the possibility to spend with us the BEST time of your life.

Will you be able to wait until the end of the summer??
