Renfe has proposed to improve once and for all vicinity. And Madrid will take a pinch of 400 million euros

by

The vicinity service in Madrid is having a performance, according to Renfe, of “positive” but it is very likely that if you ask travelers who take this service daily give you a different answer. To launch this assessment, the company is based on the fact that the 85.3% of the services provided In the Community of Madrid they arrive on time. And to maintain this valuation, more than 400 million euros will be invested. Assiduous incidents. Despite what Renfe says, the truth is that the incidents in Madrid trains are usual. Although generalized incidents are lower and are a few minutes of waiting, it is not uncommon for situations such as last July in which All lines were affected either delays that are especially complicated Now that the city is full of works. In fact, criticisms have long been part of the Madrid political debate. The Government of Spain has taken advantage of subway delays repeatedly for CRiticate to local entities and These have returned the ball Remembering that the city suffers from nearbyver breakdowns, which are the competence of the government. A patch that exceeds 400 million euros. In two games that will break that figure. First, Renfe has tendered a contest for a new maintenance contract for interurban trains for the next three years. This contest has 61.5 million euros assigned in the case of Madrid (Catalonia, Galicia, Andalusia, Extremadura, Aragon and Castilla y León also have their own lots). But, in addition, the 2025-2030 Industrial Installations Plan has been launched, which is assigned a game of 350 million euros in the case of Madrid. That is, in total it is planned to spend about 411.5 million euros in the near Madrid. Trains maintenance. In The Spanish newspaper They point out that the game of 61.5 million euros is dedicated exclusively to the maintenance of 82 trains of the 465 series that will be reduced to the 60 vehicles. This maintenance will be carried out at the base of Madrid Atocha. This investment is part of the 485 million euros that this year has confirmed Renfe for the maintenance of this type of trains throughout Spain. In total, there are 430 trains (a fleet in which there are also medium distance trains) that will gradually be renewed because they are at the end of their useful life. In Madrid there will be 22 who should get out of circulation. The Industrial Facilities Plan 2025-2030. This project is focused on improving the maintenance capacity of the rail network, as well as adapting the rolling material and, above all, to improve operational efficiency so that trains find unforeseen lower. Those 350 million euros are part of A package of up to 1 billion euros that will be distributed throughout Spain. The new trains that are going to reach the fleet forces to renew the existing facilities and the material so they are going to create new maintenance bases (Aranjuez, Alcalá de Henares, Móstoles-El Soto and Vicálvaro in Madrid). The new trains. The reduction in the fleet of the 465 series of the trains that Renfe has available is included in A much greater game that the company is dedicating to improve and renew the fleet and facilities throughout Spain. The plan began in 2020 and has been receiving various backs. The new trains will be manufactured by Alstom, Stadler and CAF and some of them are already testing. The renewal of more than 400 trains comes after 15 years of drought in which Renfe has not bought any train to renew the fleet. Of course, it has been sold that the new vehicles will have more and better sensor -based systems to monitor the components more closely and advance the possible breakdowns, taking out the trains of the circulation for their maintenance before the failure occurs.

Toledo has proposed to change mass tourism for another “quality”. And it is clear where to look for it: in China

by

With the flow of foreign visitors at record levels and the touristry converted into Hot debate themeToledo has proposed to rethink its tourism. The city lasts a ordinance that regulates the sector and He has recognized openly that he wants his flow of travelers to be more compatible with the day -to -day life of his neighbors, enhancing “quality tourism against mass.” Given that challenge, your City Council It is very clear Where you should look: China. That is why he has decided to go to the Asian giant has promoted himself. To the hunt for tourists. Toledo wants more Chinese tourists. And is willing to travel thousands of kilometers to achieve it. The city has just launched a commercial mission Headed by its mayor, Carlos Velázquez, to sell the benefits of the Castillanomanchega town in the Asian market. The delegation, in which local representatives and representatives of the hoteliers and the Toledo business fabric will participate, part today with a clear purpose: “reinforce tourism promotion” in China and (an important nuance) “attract quality tourism.” And what exactly will they do? In The statement In which he reports the campaign, the City Council does not give too many details, but it does advance that it will include “commercial meetings”, aspires to “consolidate” the image of Toledo as “quality tourism destination” and contemplates meetings with representatives of Chinese provinces. The team also wants to start the procedures for The twinning From Toledo with Xi´an, the city of the celebration Terracota warriors. What … and when. The initiative is interesting both for its content and (especially) for its context. After all, it is not any time for Toledo tourism. The City Council expects to approve This same month a New Ordinance which aspires to “make coexistence easier” between visitors and residents of their historic center and above all, In words of Carlos Velázquez himself, “to enhance quality tourism against mass.” That expression (“quality tourism”) is repeated half a dozen in The statement in which the City Council informs of the commercial mission. The New standard which will regulate the tourism of Toledo contemplates the declaration of certain streets of the Historic Center as saturated areas, in which special rules will be applied that facilitate the passage of visitors and neighbors. It also foresees that broad groups (formed by more than 30 people) must use individual audio systems, prohibit the use of megaphones at night and establishes that the guides Free Tours They will not be able to use colored umbrellas to capture customers. Why Chinese tourists? For several reasons. The main (and obvious) is the size of the Chinese market, a country of 1.4 billion of potential visitors. The Toledo Consistory himself remembers that only in the Xi´an metropolitan region, a territory with which he wants Portugal. And although the flow of travelers of the Asian giant is in a way conditioned By the war in Ukraine (the conflict affects aerial connections), Europe remains a Popular destination For the Chinese, whose tourism sector He recovers After the pandemic sake. In fact Toledo is not the only city that seeks to cut its visitors. Others locations and companies Spanish have already traveled to the Asian giant to strengthen ties. Carlos Velázquez himself has shown in other occasions His interest in China as the engine of a “quality tourism.” A figure: 3,150 euros. The Chinese visitor usually highlights for another reason, especially interesting for the tourism industry in its broader spectrum: the portfolio. According to the UNChina leads the ranking of international tourism spending, standing well above the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom and France, which complete the ‘Top 5’. And the United Nations is not the only source that points in that direction. In July Visa published A report on expenses of foreign visitors in Spain that places the Chinese in first position. “Each international tourist plans to spend on their trip to Spain up to € 3,150, which reinforces the positive impact of the sector on the national economy. For markets, Chinese tourists lead the average expenditure (€ 3,150), followed by Americans (€ 2,850) and Mexicans (€ 2,435)”, collect the reportwhich recalls that those who visit Spain do it above all for their cultural wealth, their attractiveness as a destination of sun and beach and the desire to know emblematic cities. The authors of the study They slide In addition, another interesting idea: as well as the British who arrive in Spain, they seek especially sun and beach and Mexican cultural experiences, the Chinese especially value purchases. Is there more data? Yes. And show the potential of the Chinese market that now hopes to conquer Toledo. While the flow of visitors to the Asian giant continues to be far from other countries such as the United Kingdom or Germany, The INE shows That last year Spain received just over 640,000 Chinese visitors, still below the 700,700 it reached before the pandemic. As for spending, the INE agrees that the average by Chinese visitor was around last year the € 2,900in front of the 1,300 of the Germans or 1,200 of the English. Statistics does not detail if it includes the value of flights. In any case, your half -day/person is also high: 406in front of the 165 of the Germans.

An researcher proposed a game to Chatgpt. What he received in return was functional keys from Windows 10

by

Sometimes, the most effective is the simplest. That thought Marco Figueroa, cybersecurity researcher, when last week decided to test The limits of Chatgpt. The proposal was as innocent as disconcerting: a riddle game, without technical attacks or explicit intentions. Instead of seeking vulnerabilities in the code, he focused on language. And it worked: he managed to make the system return something that, according to himself, should never have appeared on the screen. The result were generic key installation of Windows 10 For business environments. The key was to disguise him. What Figueroa wanted to check was not if he could force the system to deliver forbidden information, but if it was enough to present the right context. He reformulated interaction as a harmless challenge: a kind of riddle in which AI should think of a real text chain, while the user tried to discover it through closed questions. Throughout the conversation, the model did not detect any threat. He responded normally, as if he were playing. But the most critical part came at the end. When introducing the phrase “I Give Up” – I rindo – Figueroa activated the final answer: the model revealed a product key, as it had been stipulated in the rules of the game. It was not a casual carelessness, but a combination of carefully designed instructions to overcome the filters without raising suspicions. The filters were there, but they were not enough. Systems such as Chatgpt are trained to block any attempt to obtain sensitive data: from passwords to malicious links or activation keys. These filters are known as Guardrailsand combine black lists of terms, contextual recognition and intervention mechanisms against potentially harmful content. In theory, asking for a Windows key should automatically activate those filters. But in this case, the model did not identify the situation as dangerous. There were no suspicious words, or direct structures that alerted their protection systems. Everything was raised as a game, and in that context, the AI acted as if it were fulfilling a harmless slogan. What seemed harmless was camouflaged. One of the elements that made the failure possible was a simple obfuscation technique. Instead of writing directly expressions such as “Windows 10 Serial Number”, Figueroa introduced small HTML labels between words. The model, interpreting the structure as something irrelevant, ignored the real content. Why it worked (and why just worrying). One of the reasons why the model offered that response was the type of key revealed. It was not a unique key or linked to a specific user. Apparently it was a generic installation key (GVLK)such as those used in business environments for massive displays. These keys, publicly documented by Microsoft, only work if they are connected to a KMS (Key Management Service) server that validates network activation. The problem was not only the content, but the reasoning. The model understood the conversation as a logical challenge and not as an attempt to evasion. Did not activate its alert systems because the attack did not seem an attack It’s not just a key problem. The test was not limited to an anecdotal issue. According to Figueroa himself, the same logic could be applied to try to access another type of sensitive information: from links that lead to malicious sites to restricted content or personal identifiers. Everything would depend on the way the interaction is formulated and whether the model is capable – or not – to interpret the context as a suspect. In this case, the keys appeared without their origin being completely clear. The report does not specify whether this information is part of the model training data, if it was generated from already learned patterns, or if external sources were accessed. Whatever the road, the result was the same: a barrier that should be impassable ended up giving up.

A group of scientists has proposed to infect another world and see what happens as an experiment. His candidate: The Enced Moon

by

While NASA’s rovers are still looking for clues on Mars, Jupiter, and Esturno, Saturn’s icy moons, of Jupiter, of Jupiter, They have become the main candidates to house microbial life outside the earth in the solar system. But what will we do if we discover that they are not inhabited? A controversial idea. Encard, with Your subsurface ocean and confirmed presence of crucial elements for lifeIt is a usual focus of scientific fascination. The European Space Agency Plan to send a probe there which would arrive in 2054. Anticipating a disappointment, a group of astrobiologists has launched a bold proposal: if it turns out to be uninhabited, we can consider “infecting it” deliberately with terrestrial microbes to observe how life spreads in a habitable but virgin world. An unprecedented experiment. Since they began to explore the solar system, large space agencies have taken very seriously not to contaminate other planets and satellites, building their probes in clean rooms to reduce the number of bacteria that could survive on board. This experiment would be to do the opposite. It would be the first planetary scale attempt to build a biosphere. It would force us to learn how to assemble complex ecosystems from scratch, which organisms are the most appropriate to do so and how they behave in extraterrestrial conditions. Why sow life in another world. Charles S. Cockell, Holley Conte and M. Dale detail their idea in an article published By Space Policy magazine. The group argues that, if future missions confirmed the absence of native life in Encela, the deliberate inoculation of the satellite would help us understand how life spreads in permanently dark oceans. Inoculation would allow to investigate how bacteria ecosystems were organized On the ground snowball or even If hydrothermal chimneys From a primitive land they could be the place where life arose on our planet during the early or early archaic times. A multiphendary economy. Entering a more speculative field, an inhabited brain could, in theory, become a source of materials for the exploration of the exterior system if humanity would become a multiparaneary species. The authors even mention the engineering of organisms as an option to make the new biosphere, transforming the ocean of the Saturn moon into a “biofuel production plant”, once our metanogenic bacteria have prospered. It could even resort to synthetic biology to design optimized organisms. Faster than terraft Mars. The experiment would, of course, a multigenerational company, but unlike Mars the terraftwhich would take centuries, the inoculation of an extraterrestrial ocean could be achieved with current technology and would be “much simpler and less expensive.” But there are also ethical implications. How many missions are needed to be sure that it is really uninhabited? Is such an experiment more valuable than studying the geological and geochemical processes of a virgin world? And perhaps it is also possible to ask: will we be able to guard a second biosphere, in addition to that of the earth, for multiple generations? It is worth thinking in the long term, but we must previously intensify our sense of responsibility for the Earth’s biosphere.

All Netflix series have the same appearance and the same photograph. And Netflix has proposed to solve it

by

It is a runrún in the audiovisual industry for years: all Netflix productions have the same finish. In the case of the most almighty fiction factory of the moment, it is a problem, and has won him abundant criticism. Netflix herself knows it and has got to work to solve it: a series of technical novelties that want to end what has been known for years as “Netflix aesthetics.” What is Netflix aesthetics? It is about Visual finish of the series and platform filmsthat It draws attention For generating common features in products that, on paper, would not have to have them: romantic series, horror movies and even realities And documentaries end up receiving a very common distinctive bath with very recognizable characteristics: Excess shine and color; or, on the contrary, areas of the plane very dark or unnecessarily in gloom. Saturated lighting, especially in night images. Devotion to neons, in a kind of aesthetics inherited from the eighties (of what We believe that were the eighties, at least) and that is perceived in series like ‘Stranger Things‘. In terms of editing and assembly, little innovative decisions and Manido resourceseven sometimes overexpressive. The lighting highlights details of makeup and the costumes, which underlines how often Netflix productions have a little original or unnecessarily “studied” production design. In general terms, all these decisions lead to a Netflix production being recognizable at a distance, even in series and films with large production values ​​(‘red alert’) or that should be characterized, precisely, by its distinctive touch (‘Sandman’). But … why? This visual standardization is completely sought after, and there are several reasons for it. One is the standardization of the image due to the technical specifications that Netflix seeks. Among other things, A couple of years ago There was the obligation to use certain cameras, the minimum resolution requirements and what percentage of each production could use an unauthorized camera. These approved cameras began being just a couple, but the list has grown a lot since then. As Some observers claimthat list is currently as long as it could be in an independent production shot in digital. That is, you can no longer blame everything to the limitations that Netflix put a few years ago, because that list of recommended material to roll has grown a lot. What matters. The theoretical Haley Nahman It contributed a possible reason for this visual standardization of Netflix, when it began to detect it in productions outside the platform, such as the horror film ‘M3gan’, and which can basically be reduced to a search for “less conflict.” That is, scenarios with fewer elements, or less illuminated elements (more scarce characters, more sober decoration, more areas in gloom …). Thus costs are not only cheaper because you have to take care of less problematic aspects of a plane, but because it generates an “instruction book” to apply in every situation. The algorithm culture. Of course, the Blind faith of Netflix in the designs of the algorithm It also has a lot to do with this replacement for constants: if something works, it is tried to repeat, and that not only applies to the themes and genres, which we have seen with the appearance of clones of ‘The squid game‘ either ‘Bridgerton‘. It also affects aesthetics, and in that sense, manufacturing visual rollers that coincide with the most popular is more than a technical issue. Even the most striking finishes, such as ‘Stranger Things’, find their immediate replica (in ‘Fear Street’, for example). Below the risk. It is not necessary to influence it too much, but if Netflix has become the most popular and followed platform, it is to polish all kinds of stridency or aesthetics that leave the norm, in order to appeal to as many audience as possible. Again ‘red alert’ is the best example: a cast (The Rock, Ryan Reynolds, Gal Gadot) that seems elaborated by an AI, an aesthetic that is the common average term of all spy films, an argument that has been made with an Excel sheet of common places … Beyond the final quality, what matters is to appeal to the most, the better. An improvement. Aware that this aesthetic can have its positive side in terms of effectiveness, but not so much if the belief is spread that everything that comes from the Netfllix factory is identical (and therefore, it is not worth approaching new proposals), the platform recently announced support for HDR10+ and Dolby Vision. They are formats that allow a much broader dynamic and color range, and better preserve the creative intention and offering richer and detailed images. Specifically, the platform promises with this improvement more precise colors and greater detail in each frame, which will help mitigate one of the eternal complaints of the specyers: the darkest scenes of movies and series barely have details. It is a key movement for a future in which platforms are obliged to stand out in front of the competition. Or at least, it seems that each of its proposals has a distinctive and unique style.

Europe has proposed a 0% tariff for its cars. The only problem is that they have no cars to sell us

by

The United States has hit first and Europe tries to defend itself through negotiation. That is what indicates the first reaction of the European Union to tariffs of 25% imposed by the Donald Trump government to cars, the pieces that compose them, steel and aluminum. Also to the 20% tariff in flat rate format that the United States has imposed on all the countries of the European Union. The response of the European Union has been to put the table and sit down to negotiate. Europe plays the future of many sectors but the car is especially critical. According to UGTon average in Europe, 3.2% of each country’s employees work in the production of vehicles and engines or in activities associated with them such as repair or distribution and sale. The document mentions the Draghi reportthe result of a study commissioned by the European Union to which the European Central Bank was to seek solutions to the European economic decline against emerging powers. It pointed out that in Europe there are 13.8 million people working in the automobile sector, representing 6.1% of the active population. According to the European CommissionWe export vehicles to the United States worth 38.9 billion euros. Only the United Kingdom, who bought cars worth 34,300 million euros, rivals this country. To this we must add that a multitude of European vehicle manufacturers produce in Mexico or Canada as bridges to a cheaper entry in the United States. Vehicle shipments affect German manufacturers to a greater extent. The group Volkswagen is stopping his deliveries in the United States and its shipments on a railroad from Mexico. Mercedes is considering reduce your offereliminating smaller models and, therefore, that report lower profit margin. BMW, for the moment, It seems that it will absorb tariffs. And Stellantis too is sending home to workers from and outside the United States to produce a lower amount of cars. An impossible response proposal To try to save the situation, the European Union has put on the table operate with a zero tariff for vehicles and industrial goods. In The world collect the words of Ursula von der LeyenPresident of the European Commission, who recalled that the proposition on vehicles was already made last February. In the press conference to present the measure, from the European Commission it has been stressed that they did not obtain an adequate response. And the same has happened now. Yesterday afternoon, Donald Trump left the cameras to threaten China with raising tariffs even more and pointing out that the European proposal does not convince him. For the president of the United States, it is not enough. “The EU has been very hard over the years. I always say that it was formed to harm the United States in commerce. That is why it formed (…) joined to create a monopoly situation, to create a unified force against the United States in trade. (…) we pay to protect them militarily and play it in commerce. So it is not a good combination,” The country. The problem for Europe is that The commercial deficit of the United States with Europe in the purchase and sale of cars is very high and from the US government they are not willing to accept that Europe compensates for part of these losses (and other products sold to the United States) with services. In spite of everything, the balance remains positive for Europe, as is checked in this graph of eldiario.es. According to Acea15% of vehicles exported by Europe are destined for the United States. However, the value is high because 22% of the money obtained from exports worldwide comes from the United States. Those 38,500 million euros contrast with the 7.7 billion euros that we import from the country. By units, Europe sent 749,170 light cars to the United States while we bought 164,857 vehicles. On average, a car sold to the United States costs around 51,400 euros. Back, each car sold by the United States to Europe costs about 46,800 euros. This explains that if the United States only wants a balanced trade balance between vehicle entry and exit is almost impossible to meet. The only proposal that came out yesterday from North America is that Europeans buy the energy produced there to compensate for the commercial deficit that the United States has in the purchase of goods. But, in addition, there are many reasons why Europe cannot match in sales the purchases that the United States makes of our cars. First of all because of a purely cultural problem, the United States does not manufacture cars that fit with European philosophy. In general, they manufacture cars of extremely large dimensions for European cities, with larger engines and gastons than Europeans. And not only that, the United States has encountered the problem that much of the manufacturing automobile industry has left the country to place in Mexico and Canada. Commercial treaties with these countries allow them to sell cars “to the American” producing them cheaper than within their borders. However, Europe has been finding a productive market for each car. The highest cost (but greater profit margin) are manufactured, above all, in Germany and France where the costs are higher. The little ones occur in Spain or in countries with lax commercial treaties such as Morocco or Türkiye. Only within its borders (Germany and Poland) distortions such as the United States and Canada are produced. The problem for the United States is that Europeans do manufacture cars that interest there, sending them from Europe or from Mexico and Canada, but they already manufacture cars that interest the Europeans themselves. The United States manufactures a type of vehicle that is not demanded in Europe and, in fact, brands such as Ford have been manufacturing vehicles that interest us locally manufacturing on our ground as the Ford Fiesta has beenthe focus, the puma or the kuga, among many others. In fact, Ford itself is clear that the place to produce the few Ford … Read more

In LaLiga Cloudflare IPS blockages they are paying fair for sinners. The righteous are already proposed legal actions

by

This weekend They turned to produce Problems for many Internet users who failed to access the websites they visit normally. The reason in many cases was the Cloudflare IPS blockade that several operators carried out due to LaLiga’s demands. Users reaches. As we explain, the war between these two entities comes from afar, and the worst thing is that is causing them to pay fair for sinners. However, some of those righteous are preparing to take action on the matter. Affected in action. Román Ramírez (@patowc), cybersecurity expert and event organizer Rootedconhe published last Friday a message in X (formerly Twitter) encouraging those affected to contact him. The objective, to ensure that those who had suffered the problems offer evidence of it to be able to collect them and gather enough evidence. Legal actions in sight. Javier A. Master (@Javieramastre), who exercises (among other things) as a lawyer from Rootedcon, recently explained the legal details of these actions and is part of that effort of Ramírez to clarify what is happening. Both are convinced that LaLiga is in a clear illicit, and that the legal arguments of that organism are not valid. Freedom of expression. For Ramírez, fundamental rights such as freedom of expression are being violated, “which should not be above economic interests.” Meanwhile, Javier Tebas, president of LaLiga, published a message in x accusing Cloudflare of being “perfect accomplice” of criminals who, for example, publish child pornography on the Internet. In that message, says Ramírez, Thebes himself explicitly admits that he is causing damage to third parties, something that theoretically should not be able to do LaLiga if he complied with the law. Shared IPS. The fundamental problem is, as we have already mentioned, that LaLiga requests IP addresses to avoid illegal broadcasts of IPTV football matches. The problem is that in many cases these IPS belong to Cloudflare, but those IPS are shared and if you tomb the IP, you tomb all web sites and services that depend on said IP. Cloudflare does not collaborate in LaLiga. According to LaLiga, Cloudflare does not collaborate at the closure of the IPTV service of the offenders. However, Ramírez explains that what LaLiga demands is to have “total access to her backend.” Cloudflare knows, of course, the web sites and services that “hang” from the same shared IP, but one of its premises is to hide that information – for that the protcolo ECH is served – as well as protect that information and its customers precisely to avoid cyber attacks and BLOCKS. The ideal solution. Cloudflare could thus leave only the website or server that is committing the alleged infraction, but that should be dictated by a judge. The current laws allow LaLiga to send a weekly IPS list to block, and from there the operators must block them or would be exposed to the breach of the judicial mandate. Ideally, a judge, knowing IP address and domain or even the SNI (Server Name Indication), demanded the closure of that exclusive service. Thus Cloudflare could disable that access at the request of the judge and not of the head of the property rights of the issuance, which is the one who demands that indiscriminate block and that affects legitimate websites and websites. Evidence. Those affected who want to provide evidence can do so by contacting Román Ramírez via X (@patowc), as writing to the email address info@rootedcon.com. The objective is to collect as many evidence as you can in the next few days to see how hundreds and even thousands of legitimate websites are inaccessible during soccer matches. And possible demand. With all those data, Ramírez and Maestre hope to build an expert case and report with which to execute a potential demand to LaLiga. The ultimate goal is to raise a complaint with which to apply precautionary measures and that these IPS blocks are suspended.

Rural Spain produces more energy than consumes. And in Teruel it is already proposed to take the VAT of the electricity there

by

In a recent report, the Ember Analysis Agency has demonstrated that the total electric production of Spain is 60.2%. However, the generation and distribution of energy are not equal throughout the country, and in the community of Aragon they know well. Proposition. The Aragón-teruel parliamentary group exists has registered A proposition of law in the autonomous chamber so that the collection of VAT obtained from the electricity companies is redistributed to compensate for the territories according to their energy production. The parliamentary spokesman for this training in a press conference, Tomás Guitarte, He explained that this initiative aims to compensate for those areas that produce more electricity than they consume. In his statements he has exposed the case of Aragon, which generates 9% of the country’s energy, but consumes only 4%. However, he added that with the current VAT to 21% and a forecast of 2,000 million euros, he would correspond about 180 million. Previously. The proposal has a historical basis, since it is inspired by the fee created in 1981, which compensated for the territories sacrificed in the production of electricity before being replaced by VAT in 1986. In addition, the law seeks to promote the well -being and development of The regions that generate energy, not only from the economic point of view, but also with a vision of territorial justice, where environmental and landscape impacts are compensated by the benefits generated by the energy transition. To Congress. The proposition of the law has been registered in the courts of Aragon and is protected in the Article 292 of the Regulation of the Courts of Aragon and in him Article 87 of the Constitution. This allows the proposal to be raised to the Congress of Deputies, where it would be processed if it exceeds the procedures in the Autonomous Courts. Once approved by the regional government and taken to Plenary, if accepted, it would go to Congress for processing. This proposal does not imply the creation of a new tax, but a redistribution of electric VAT income. The core of the problem. A couple of months ago, Aragon tried keep their surplusesbut the Constitutional Court stopped him. This situation reflects a broader imbalance which affects many producing communities, whose energy surplus is directed towards other regions of the country, generating tensions about the control and distribution of these resources. For that reason, there is a distancing between urban and rural areas In energy terms. While cities are provided with more energy and do not have the same installed infrastructure, rural areas have to live with large -scale facilities, thus generating an environmental impact and an imbalance in the territory. For example, Madrid only produces 4.8% of the energy that consumes and depends on territories such as Extremadura that produces an energy surplus of 423%. The next steps. The proposal is already in the Courts of Aragon and, after its approval by the regional government, it will be taken to the plenary. If approved, it will go to Congress for processing, which could take several months. Meanwhile, Aragon-teruel exists continues to struggle to ensure that energy producing communities receive fair compensation for the sacrifices they make.
