Renewable energy in Catalonia

We are suprised that in countries with worse conditions than us, they have more facilities to create renewable energy. Although we have perfect conditions to do it, because for example we have a lot of sun all the year, and rivers where we could put water turbines.

The energy that we have devoloped more is the wind turbines. In some of the top of the mountains you can find a few, but still it could be much more. For example as we heard there are so called windparks with more than 100 windmills. But in the discussion we did the Germans told us also that there are a lot of people that don't want the mills because they destroy the landscape. In this way we found out that we are similar in that point because also in Catalonia People are complaining about this.

Now some private people and also in public places they are starting to put some solar power plants. But we feel that with all we all the sun we have we really pay more attention on this issue. Another point is that solar power panels on the roofs of houses don't destroy the landscape.

So, every day we are improving in that way, but step by step. But we know there are still a lot of steps to do.
