La experiencia acumulada evidencia las dificultades para involucrar al sector privado en el desarrollo de proyectos de innovación responsables ante los grandes retos sociales de nuestro tiempo. A su vez, se constata un creciente interés por comprender cómo la experiencia de las empresas que integran una visión social en la definición de la misión, la visión y los valores de su proyecto empresarial puede ayudar a identificar vías para reducir la distancia entre empresas y otros actores interesados. Los resultados subrayan el valor de la innovación responsable en las cooperativas, si bien evidencian la importancia de una interpretación situada. Podemos identificar un conjunto de ideas que dan sentido a la interpretación de la responsabilidad (e.g., el valor del trabajo, el legado, etc.). Sin embargo, las declinaciones de estos valores rectores difieren, lo que sugiere una relación estrecha entre la conceptualización de la innovación responsable y las condiciones institucionales y organizativas de cada empresa.; In this contribution, we report the results of a research project in which we have analyzed the industry's vision on the governance of responsible innovation in a case that has been scarcely studied in the specialized literature: cooperatives. The accumulated experience shows the difficulties in engaging the private sector in developing responsible innovation projects for the grand social challenges of our time. At the same time, there is growing interest in understanding how companies that integrate a social vision into their mission, vision, and values can help identify ways to reduce the distance between companies and other stakeholders. The results underscore the value of responsible innovation in cooperatives but highlight the importance of a situated interpretation. We can identify a set of ideas that give meaning to the interpretation of responsibility (e.g., the value of work, legacy, etc.). However, the interpretations of these guiding values vary, suggesting a close relationship between the conceptualization of responsible innovation and each company's institutional and organizational conditions. 2026-06-30T00:00:00Z https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.11984/14617 Computational Intelligence for Sustainable Glass Manufacturing: A Data-Driven Approach for Energy Efficient Conditioning Peña Mangas, David; Cernuda, Carlos; Reguera-Bakhache, Daniel In the glass container manufacturing process, conditioning is a key stage that contributes to energy consumption. The main objective of conditioning is to cool the glass exiting the furnace to a suitable temperature for container forming. Currently, this stage is managed based on the experience of operators, which is functional but not optimized for energy efficiency. While several approaches to minimizing energy consumption based on process control using physical modeling have been proposed in the literature, they do not completely account for all the involved variables. Moreover, none of these studies leverage the power of data to predict energy consumption patterns. In this paper, we introduce a data-driven method to minimize energy consumption during the glass conditioning stage. We applied this methodology to a specific production line and tested it under various scenarios, achieving potential savings of 5% to 45% in energy consumption. Operational validations in two additional real forehearths showed energy reductions of 26.3–89.3 kWh per operating hour, corresponding to relative savings of 8.2%–22.1%, including a same-production A/B test. The implementation of this method has the potential to significantly contribute to the decarbonization goals of the glass manufacturing industry. 2026-01-01T00:00:00Z https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.11984/14616 Techno-economic assessment of centralized and decentralized energy management strategies for energy sharing in collective self-consumption schemes Feijoo-Arostegui, Ane; Rodrigues, Luís; Gaztañaga, Haizea; Villar, José; Soares, Tiago; Goikoetxea, Ander The increasing deployment of individual and collective self-consumption systems is reshaping Energy Management Systems (EMSs) under evolving regulatory frameworks. This paper presents a techno-economic comparison between a centralized EMS and a decentralized EMS for flexible resources dispatching and sharing under collective self-consumption schemes. The centralized EMS is formulated as a Mixed-Integer Non-Linear Programming (MINLP) optimization problem, whereas the decentralized EMS employs a rule-based algorithm that requires no information exchange among members. Both strategies have been evaluated under the Spanish regulatory framework, a) using fixed allocation coefficients and b) introducing improvements borrowed from the Portuguese regulation, selected as a benchmark due to its advanced regulatory maturity. For the case of ex-ante allocation coefficients computation, an optimization-based methodology is proposed combining Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP) with data clustering techniques. Results indicate that both EMS architectures achieve comparable energetic performance. The centralized EMS achieves the highest levels of self-consumption, self-sufficiency and energy sharing, particularly when proportional allocation coefficients are used, while the decentralized EMS performs closely. From an economic perspective, the centralized EMS provides the highest cost reductions, while the decentralized EMS yields lower economic savings but with significantly less computational effort, with runtimes up to eighteen times shorter. These findings highlight a clear trade-off between economic optimality and computational efficiency, positioning decentralized EMS solutions as a scalable and privacy-preserving alternative for individual self-consumers transitioning to collective self-consumption schemes in evolving regulatory frameworks. 2026-01-01T00:00:00Z https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.11984/14615 BATZ: Recuperación económica de una cooperativa industrial. Corresponsabilidad, resiliencia e intercooperación; Lanki kuadernoak = Cuadernos Lanki ; 20 Uriarte-Iñurrategi, Xabier; Ortega-Sunsundegi, Igor BATZ es una cooperativa ubicada en Igorre perteneciente al grupo MONDRAGON. Su cierre habría supuesto un duro golpe para la comarca de Arratia en Bizkaia. Y ese escenario fue una posibilidad real en la crisis que tuvo afrontar la cooperativa. Afortunadamente, BATZ pudo revertir la situación y, hoy en día, es un proyecto socio-empresarial con futuro. El presente trabajo analiza el proceso de crisis y recuperación económica de la cooperativa BATZ en el período comprendido entre 2016 y 2025. El caso resulta relevante en la medida en que se trata de una cooperativa industrial, del sector de la automoción, con más de 1.300 trabajadores y con una importante presencia internacional. La publicación, además, se ha realizado con la intención de describir, de una manera divulgativa, los mecanismos que entran en juego cuando una cooperativa entra en crisis y que forman parte de su diferencial respecto a las empresas de capital. El estudio se ha elaborado a partir de entrevistas en profundidad y grupos de discusión que recogían la voz de sus protagonistas. Se añaden explicaciones de carácter didáctico sobre los mecanismos de Intercooperación que se articulan en MONDRAGON y, sin los cuales, no podría explicarse el proceso de recuperación de la cooperativa BATZ. En el trabajo emerge una idea central: la recuperación de BATZ ha sido posible gracias al compromiso de las personas que conforman la cooperativa y al apoyo solidario del grupo MONDRAGON. 2026-01-01T00:00:00Z
