INESC Porto: a worldwide reference in wind power for more than 15 years
In December 2008, the Argonne National Laboratory (Department of Energy - DoE, Government of the United States) selected INESC Porto to support the development of a wind power forecasting platform in the United States. This is the most recent confirmation of INESC Porto’s competences in that sector. The Power Systems Unit has been giving solid and steady steps over the last year, providing consulting services for different countries, such as Brazil, Cape Verde, Spain, Hungary, Bulgaria and Venezuela.

INESC Porto supports the preservation of cultural heritages
Imagine that you can visit Israel’s Wailing Wall without having to leave your house. Now try to imagine the ruins of the Parthenon in Athens or even our very own Temple of Diana in Évora perfectly restored to their originals. INESC Porto has been playing an imperative role in the rehabilitation, restoration, preservation and dissemination of cultural heritages as is proof the institution’s participation in two important projects –MOSAICA and H-Know.
