SENER, cutting-edge engineering and technology in the Barcelona Synchrotron Park
SENER, cutting-edge engineering and technology in the Barcelona Synchrotron Park
The international engineering and technology group SENER, founded 65 years ago, accomplishes Aerospace and Engineering activities. It has a long track record of projects, international experience and a team comprised of thousands of professionals who innovates in four major sectors: Aerospace, Infrastructure, Energy and Marine.
The SENER Catalan headquarters, located in the Barcelona Synchrotron Park, is a sustainable and modern building (photo) designed by its own team of architects, on a 7,500 sqm plot with an above-ground GFA of 16,000 sqm, which houses over 300 professionals from different disciplines, including engineers, mathematicians, physicists and architects.
In this building, SENER Aeroespacial has recently invested over 5 million Euros in new technological facilities for space and astronomy, specifically in new equipment and in white rooms (1,000 sqm); these facilities, which currently employ about 50 people, place SENER Aeroespacial at the forefront in the development and production of electronic radio frequency devices based on gallium nitride (GAN) technology, which is key to future generations of communications satellites. This investment is on top of the 70 million invested in 2018 with the acquisition of the TRYO Aerospace & Electronics group, making a total of 75 million euros invested in the last three years.
SENER Aerospace aspires to become one of the leading European companies in Space and Science. One of the pillars of growth is the telecommunications sector, where it already has a track record of working on more than 1,500 satellites and space vehicles; he is also a European leader in precision mechanical systems for satellite platforms and instruments, having taken part in the main programs of the ESA and NASA space agencies; of note in the area of science are its contributions to ground-based astronomy and large scientific infrastructure (LSI), where it has a wide portfolio of projects and clients, such as the European Southern Observatory (ESO).
