Innovation and sustainability

Energy consumption is increasingly high and has a strong impact on both climate and human health: reducing waste is a global challenge in which, together with states and their ambitious goals, technological innovation plays a fundamental role.

Starting from this awareness i-TES was founded in Turin in 2016, establishing itself as an innovative startup and focusing its attention on research and development in the field of thermal storage with innovative materials.
