HICO is a company that is committed to clean energy. For more than 25 years we have been working in technologies such as conventional photovoltaic and photovoltaic glass for buildings, solar thermal, photovoltaic glass, conventional hydropower, energy recovery from water supply networks and reversible hydropower with wind energy support.
energy recovery from water supply networks as well as reversible hydropower with wind energy support.
- Solar Photovoltaic (subsidy management):
Focused on the industrial and agricultural sector, based on an invoice, we analyse your last two years of consumption and carry out a feasibility study for the installation you need with the minimum investment. We finance almost all projects so that you do not have to make a large outlay, compensating the savings with the payments.
- Photovoltaic Glass:
We work with property and architectural firms so that the installation of a curtain wall or glazed building is not a cost but an investment that will pay for itself over time. Return on investment between 2-4 years. Designer and energy-generating glass.
- Energy in water networks: Turbogenerators.
In water networks, there are hundreds of points where there is excess pressure. This excess pressure is normally wasted by means of a relief valve, when it could be recovered. They can be installed at the outlet of the ecological channel of the dams, at the arrival at treatment plants and reservoirs and at all those points in the network where there is a load breakage. Return on investment 4-5 years.
- Reversible hydroelectric generation:
One of the renewable energies that has made most progress in recent years is wind energy through wind turbines. The main disadvantage of this solution is the fluctuations of a large amount of energy into the grid, depending on wind variations.
depending on wind variations. A much more effective solution that helps the stability of the grid is what is called reversible hydraulic generation, which consists of storing energy in the form of the gravitational potential energy of water, pumping it from a reservoir or the sea to another one located at a higher level, which can be used when necessary. For pumping we use wind energy and for electricity production we use our turbogenerators.
