The Island Council of Tenerife, through the Ministry for Landscaping and the Urban Environment, is organising the first edition of the "Isla de Tenerife" Landscaping Prize (2010).
Not sure about where to leave your waste? Do you need to know how selective collection works? Where? And when? The Council of Tenerife has set up a new freephone telephone number to provide the public with information about waste management, helping to clear up any doubts you have and allowing you to collaborate in the work to protect the island's natural environment, a responsibility that we all share. Call 900 305 000 to get an answer to all of your questions.
Scientists, builders or any other group of persons interested in sustainable housing are invited to temporarily rent one of the 25 sustainable homes that have been built in the world's first sustainable residential complex. The building of the complex was commissioned by the Council of Tenerife as part of a scientific project to incorporate renewable energies into architecture. Thanks to this experiment it will be possible to establish specific design patterns for building purposes and thereby promote energy saving. The project will also help to diversify conventional energy resources and reduce the environmental impacts of construction.
The Council of Tenerife has presented the first phase of the Island's High Speed Telecommunications Ring, consisting of the installation of basic telecommunications infrastructure for broadband internet connection on the island. The project is to be completed in November this year and will bring new services and opportunities to the island's internet users.
The Council of Tenerife, via Tenerife's Institute for Renewable Energies (ITER) and the company Petratherm, is currently participating in research on underground resources. Based on the fact that Tenerife is still volcanically active and that the earth produces a substantial amount of heat, the Council of Tenerife hopes to capture this heat and produce geothermal energy with a view to attaining energy self-sufficiency for the island.

The main objectives of the Special Plan for the Regulation of Industrial Activity in Tenerife are to provide necessary guarantees and legal security for land in order to foster the development of industry throughout the whole island; and facilitate the setting up of companies and the diversification of the local economy within the framework established in the Insular Plan of Territorial Regulation (PIOT), whilst at the same time adhere to the island's environmental objectives. The drafting of the plan has been put out to tender by the Council of Tenerife.
The Council of Tenerife's TF Innova program will set in motion two projects as part of the Interreg Mac Program for the promotion of Research and Development (R&D) in Tenerife, with an investment of just over €1.4 million.
