Isaac Prada, takes part in the round table on innovation during demo day at Start Comillas
START, the Comillas University Entrepreneurs Association, was created in 2011 with one main target: to enhance entrepreneurship spirit amongst university students and teachers. In order to do so, in 2012-2013 it held a number of sessions and initiatives aimed at boosting student interest in entrepreneurship, building a network of different profiles capable of complementing each other when facing this challenge. The START Comillas goal is to become a reference for all similar associations of university students. One of the relevant events of the year was the “Demo Day”, when several activities were held. The agenda included a round table on “Innovation Opportunities in Industry and Energy Sectors”. Isaac Prada took part, together with Manuel Martínez Alonso (Open Innovation Manager at Ferrovial), Agustín Delgado (Innovation Director at Iberdrola), Javier Rodríguez (Accenture Partner) and Efraim Centeno (IIT Manager). Isaac described how energy efficiency and energy harvesting are two fields with a vast potential of innovation opportunities. He also explained the different synergies existing between start-ups and large corporations in R&D and how universities are a powerful source of bright new ideas....

KeelWit opens a new website devoted to energy efficiency certification in buildings
Since last June 1st, every owner wishing to rent or sell a flat, house, building or office is obliged to display the energy efficiency level of the building, rated through a certificate. The levels are displayed with a letter and color similar to the rating given to house appliances. KeelWit prepared this moment since 2012 through the training of its team, building a new devoted website (www.necesitouncertificadoenergetico.com) and the signature of several Memorandums of Understanding with real-state agencies, while developing new tools to calculate the savings linked to any improvement suggested by the engineering team. The business development of this area seeks to profit from the know-how of the team in energy efficiency management in industrial processes and plants through the deployment of KEEMO (KeelWit Energy Efficiency Method of Optimization).

Promora chooses KeelWit to certify its property portfolio
PROMORA has been for over 30 years a leading real state agency, selling and renting luxury houses and offices in the most exclusive areas of Madrid and its surrounding areas (La Moraleja, El Encinar, El Soto, Aravaca, Pozuelo, Somosaguas, Barrio de Salamanca, Castellana, Puerta de Hierro, El Viso, Ciudalcampo, Sanchinarro and Las Tablas). True professionals specialized in developing bespoke services for their customers, whilst building a close and sound relationship with them, their philosophy is mostly similar to KeelWit’s mission and vision. This has allowed both companies to reach an agreement to offer KeelWit’s services to PROMORA’s customers in order to do the compulsory energy efficiency certification required to sell or rent a property. Our engineers move to the building involved, take thermography pictures, make the required measures and after a couple of days of work at the office, send the certificate directly to the owner by email. KeelWit’s work shall enhance the rich variety of high added-value solutions granted by PROMORA to its customers.

UNO, awarded with the “clean environment 2012” prize for enhancing the use of the electric trike developed by KeelWit
During a formal ceremony held in the Environment Division of the Regional Government of Madrid, UNO has received the “Clean Environment 2012” award for Organizations. UNO is the Spanish Organization of employers and companies of the Logistics & Transportation business. This prize is part of a global approach from the regional government to enhance local industries’ engagement with clean initiatives and technologies. This year’s prize acknowledges the project of the development of an electric tricycle for Last Mile Delivery in urban environments. This project was strongly supported by leading companies in urban logistics, such as SEUR, MRW, TNT or DHL Supply Chain who have offered their know-how in daily business operation in this area. Vienenbici worked as the investor in the project, KeelWit Technology as the engineering company taking full responsibility of the design, sizing and production scheme, and e+e as an energy efficiency expert. Project coordination has been granted by CITET (Technological Centre for Innovation applied to Logistics and Transportation). This project ended with the only fully homologated electric tricycle in Spain with substantial improvements in terms of handling, comfort, volume, torque and range for package delivery in pedestrian areas and crowded streets. UNO can therefore display the “sello-e” distinction as a proof of its efforts in making logistic industry more efficient and environmentally aware and as a sign of their search for excellence in its management.
