smart tourism
Lanzarote faces the challenge of transforming an energy model dependent on fossil fuels and a tourism management that is poorly integrated with the territory.
The energy and digital transition represents a strategic opportunity to strengthen island self-sufficiency, improve service efficiency and move towards a more responsible and measurable tourism.
This sector proposes turning the island into a smart energy and digital ecosystem, capable of managing its resources with sustainability and resilience criteria.
The Challenge
Energy dependence
More than 75% of energy comes from fossil sources, underusing the island's wind and solar potential.
Data management
The lack of information integration limits strategic decision-making.
Unmonitored tourism
Tourist flows are not managed according to their environmental and social impact.
Low resilience
Limited digitalisation makes it difficult to anticipate risks and optimise resources.
Decarbonise the energy system digitalise the management of the territory and transform tourism into a smart and sustainable model
Lines of
action
Island energy strategy
Renewables, self-sufficiency and decentralisation.
Drive an energy model based on clean energy, local energy communities and micro-grids that reduce external dependence.
Data governance
Open data for a smart island.
Create a common data infrastructure for energy, water, mobility and tourism that enables more efficient and transparent management.
Smart tourism
Technology at the service of the territory.
Apply digital tools to manage tourist flows, measure impacts and encourage responsible practices.
Training and green jobs
New skills for the transition.
Develop professional profiles linked to energy, digitalisation and tourism innovation, strengthening local employment.
Relevant
studies
International cases of energy transition, smart tourism management and data governance.
