Jordi Sevilla, ex presidente de Red Eléctrica y actual Director de Contexto en la Unidad de Inteligencia de LLYC,cree que el gobierno acabará cediendo y ampliará el calendario de cierre de la central nuclear de Almaraz. "Estoy convencido de que convenceremos al Gobierno y a su presidente para que tome la iniciativa", ha señalado en el informativo "Hora Punta" de Canal Extremadura Radio. El que también fuera ministro de Administraciones Pública asegura que la solución no pasa por nacionalizar la gestión de Almaraz, como ha planteado la presidenta de la Junta, sino por "equipar la fiscalidad a la media europea". "Comparto la necesidad de mantener abierta la central nuclear pero no creo que el problema sea la titularidad pública o privada", ha indicado Sevilla

El cierre de la central nuclear de Almaraz tiene en vilo a la mayor parte de los vecinos de este pueblo de Extremadura. Hay más de 3.000 empleos en juego y la vida de todo un pueblo y de una comarca, que vive gracias a esta central nuclear. Este sábado se ha convocado una manifestación promovida por los ayuntamientos y la plataforma ‘Sí a Almaraz, Sí al futuro’ para defender su continuidad y que no se cierre la planta nuclear. Una convocatoria que espera contar con 15.000 personas y que tiene el respaldo tanto del PP como de Vox. Esta es una de las cinco centrales abiertas en España y es la primera que está contemplado su cierre dentro del Plan General de Residuos Radiactivos aprobado por el Gobierno con el que se pretende cerrar todas las plantas entre 2027 y 2035.

Una de las entidades que se han sumado a la convocatoria en favor de mantener la actividad de la Central de Almaraz es la Cámara de Comercio de Cáceres. Su presidente, Gabriel Álvarez, asegura de uno de los principales focos de generación de riqueza de la región, y que el gobierno debe rectificar el calendario de cierre. En este sentido, defiende que ni la gigafactoría ni el data center tienen que sustituir a la central, sino sumarse a ella por el progreso económico de la región.

La Plataforma "Sí a Almaraz" está ultimando todos los detalles de cara a la gran manifestación que ha convocado este sábado a las diez de la mañana en el ayuntamiento de esa localidad para pedir la continuidad de la central nuclear. El portavoz de la Plataforma, Fernando Sánchez, espera una gran afluencia de hasta 10.000 personas pues ya han confirmado su presencia asistentes de los pueblos de la comarca, también de Cáceres, Plasencia, Trillo e incluso Madrid y Barcelona. Sánchez pide al gobierno central que recapacite sobre este cierre pues todo lo ocurrido desde 2020 como la pandemia o la Guerra de Ucrania ha demostrado que esta energía es necesaria en Europa.

Hace apenas dos meses que se ha creado en Navalmoral de la Mata el Círculo Empresarial Moralo, una asociación que este lunes vivió su particular "puesta de largo" debido a la colocación de la primera piedra de la gigafactoría de baterías de Envision, un proyecto que genera mucha ilusión en la zona. Sin embargo, el presidente de este club de empresarios, Ramón Barbado, reconoce la amenaza que supone para la zona el cierre de la Central Nuclear de Almaraz o el declive en el cultivo del tabaco.

El catedrático de Economía Financiera y Contabilidad de la UEX, ya jubilado, Ricardo Hernández Mogollón, asegura que la construcción de la gigafactoría de Navalmoral marcará un antes y un después en la economía regional, por el enorme volumen de empleo que va a generar la fábrica, y porque la región entrará "en una economía basada en la innovación". En una entrevista en Primera Hora, el también miembro del Club Senior y del Patronato de la Fundación Xavier de Salas, asegura además que sería muy positivo que continuara también la Central Nuclear de Almaraz para mantener el empleo en la zona.

Las centrales nucleares españolas llevan un mes que no están al 100%. Y lo peor es que fueron diseñadas para estar al 100%. Y hay varios motivos que pueden explicar este “curtailment” nuclear:El primero es la mayor producción de las energías renovables como son la eólica, solar e hidráulica. Pues aunque en Barcelona haya sequía, no significa que en el resto de la península las centrales hidroeléctricas no estén turbinando.Otra causa podría ser más estratégica, relacionada con la negociación de las posibles subidas de la tasa ENRESA. Que ya expliqué en el charco del viernes pasado.Y otra son los precios de la energía, pues llevamos mucho tiempo a precios cercanos a cero, y aunque las nucleares suelen tener acuerdos a largo plazo, en esta ocasión los operadores han elegido bajar la potencia.Y esta circunstancia ocurre en un año interesante para la energía nuclear, donde se tienen que tomar decisiones sobre Trillo, Almaraz y la ya citada tasa ENRESA. Y por supuesto el eterno intento por resucitar el debate del cierre nuclear. Aunque el presidente de Iberdrola, operador de 6 de los 7 reactores españoles (aunque no en solitario), ya ha dejado claro que no existe tal debate.Referencias:

The All Things Wildfire podcast, hosted by O.P. Almaraz, features Andrea Santy as the guest, delving into the pressing issue of wildfires occurring beyond traditional fire seasons. The podcast introduces the XPRIZE for Wildfire, an $11 million competition designed to stimulate innovation in combatting destructive wildfires. Andrea Santy explains the meticulous process behind the XPRIZE's development, involving consultations with a wide array of experts, from firefighters to government agencies. The competition encompasses two tracks: space-based detection and autonomous wildfire response. In the space-based detection track, participants are challenged to detect wildfires from space within 10 minutes and provide accurate information to fire managers on the ground. Teams can utilize various methods, such as satellites or open-source data. The podcast outlines the submission phases, underlining the significance of delivering real-time intelligence to fire managers while minimizing false positives. Collaboration with partners, including space agencies and fire services, is underscored to ensure the effectiveness of the solutions developed. The autonomous wildfire response track is introduced as a complementary initiative, where teams have 10 minutes to autonomously locate, reach, and extinguish a fire across a substantial area. This track allows for diverse and innovative solutions, ranging from ground sensors to drones and the integration of space-based data. The podcast underscores the autonomy of participating teams and their ownership of intellectual property, concluding by urging listeners interested in technology and wildfire prevention to stay tuned for updates on the competition.  Highlights: Introduction to All Things Wildfire and XPRIZE (00:00:00 - 00:02:19): O.P.

HARLINGEN, Texas - The two official workforce boards in the Rio Grande Valley have been awarded almost $2 million to improve the development of the region's talent pipeline to high-quality jobs. The two groups are Workforce Solutions Lower Rio (WSLR) and Workforce Solutions Cameron (WSC). The former looks after workforce development in Hidalgo, Starr and Willacy counties. They have received a $1,991,745 grant from the U.S. Department of Labor, with monies becoming available thanks to the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.Only two such grants were awarded in the State of Texas.The Building Pathways to Infrastructure Jobs grant will support public-private partnerships that provide worker-centered training programs. The  Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, which aims to collaboratively build a better America.A news conference was held at Texas State Technical College (TSTC) in Harlingen on Dec. 15 to announce the grant. Among the speakers were Alberto Treviño, the labor representative on the Texas Workforce Commission, Cledia Hernandez, vice chancellor and chief external relations office for TSTC, Francisco Almaraz, executive director of WSLR, and Pat Hobbs, executive director of WSC.According to Almaraz and Hobbs, the program is designed to create career pathways to high-quality jobs in the renewable energy, transportation, and broadband infrastructure sectors while prioritizing the delivery of training and supportive services to those from rural and underrepresented communities. “The ultimate goal is to help job seekers take on high-demand, high-quality career opportunities in advanced manufacturing, information technology, and technical service occupations, “Almaraz said. “This will create a clear path to obtaining good-paying infrastructure jobs that will help our communities thrive in the long run.” Almaraz said the Building Pathways to Infrastructure Jobs grant will complement the local workforce boards' ongoing efforts to meet the Valley's infrastructure workforce needs. He said this includes aligning registered apprenticeships and workforce programs at community colleges and supporting state and local partnerships that seek to leverage workforce funding to provide high-quality training and supportive services. In his remarks, Hobbs stressed the importance of unity in the Valley - something Hernandez also did - and, as he has done in the past, decried the underfunding and under appreciation of training for trade skills."The Valley's two workforce boards are collaborating regionally to prepare locals for upcoming high-paying jobs. These jobs include the construction and operation of new LNG terminals at the Port of Brownsville, Space X operations at Boca Chica, clean hydrogen production facilities, and other upcoming technologies. This grant will aid in developing the necessary training and education pathways,” Hobbs said. Hobbs said the main goal of the two workforce boards is to respond to local employers and workers' needs through locally designed, demand-driven workforce development initiatives. Editor's Note: Here is an audio recording of highlights from the press conference.To read the new stories and watch the news videos of the Rio Grande Guardian International News Service go to www.riograndeguardian.com.
