Today, the acting mayor of Puente Genil, Esteban Morales<\/strong>, the Gas Natural Andaluc\u00eda delegate in C\u00f3rdoba and Ja\u00e9n, Jos\u00e9 Antonio Becerra<\/strong>, and the director of the Gas Natural Fenosa Foundation's Gas Museum, Eva Buch, <\/strong>inaugurated the \u2018Energy\u2019 exhibition in the Ricardo Molina Municipal Library in Puente Genil, C\u00f3rdoba.<\/p>\n

The exhibition, organised by the Gas Natural Fenosa Foundation along with Gas Natural Andaluc\u00eda, and which can be visited until 27 June, portrays the key role of energy in the development of society and invites us to reflect upon the future of energy and the tools available to tackle it responsibly. Visitors to the exhibition will discover the history of energy presented in an educational manner via a modular display of great visual impact, for which recycled materials have been used.<\/p>\n

Entry to the exhibition is free and self-guided educational activities related to the exhibition are also available. These are aimed at students from all levels of education and the general public. These actions are aimed at raising awareness about the work carried out by the Gas Natural Fenosa Foundation and its Gas Museum.<\/p>\n

Puente Genil is the fifth town in Andalusia and the first in the province of C\u00f3rdoba to hold this exhibit. It has also visited Roquetas de Mar, El Ejido, Salobre\u00f1a, Motril and Marbella, where it was seen by over 6,000 people, and almost 1,900 local school children took part in the educational activities that accompany the exhibition.<\/p>\n

The exhibition<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Energy<\/em> reveals the key role played by energy in the development of society. The advent of public lighting in cities lit up the night and broke the agricultural cycle that had previously prevailed. This saw the birth of a new kind of activity which had been previously unthinkable: cities began offering a host of cultural and entertainment options at night, and work days in factories were extended beyond the hours of natural light. In addition to facilitating public lighting, gas was introduced into homes via modern domestic appliances, known in Spain as "gasodom\u00e9sticos", which brought convenience and comfort to the upper classes.<\/p>\n

The exhibition also reflects on the future of energy and the tools available to ensure sustainable energy production. By presenting the different energy alternatives that are available, the exhibition gives visitors the keys to understanding the advantage and drawbacks of all sources of energy to emphasise that there are no magic formulas for solving our energy needs in the future.<\/p>\n

The coming decades will be marked by security of supply, economic costs and their impact on the environment, as well as mankind's capacity for technical and social innovation. Encouraging responsible energy consumption with minimal environmental impact through savings and efficiency will be among the crucial issues of our future agenda.<\/p>\n
