The Challenge
Islands are privileged destinations that attract millions of tourists each year, thanks to their geographical appeal and unparalleled wealth in natural and cultural heritage. However, they face challenges and vulnerabilities that require innovative solutions in line with increasingly stringent environmental policies.
These destinations present three major challenges.
Their small size implies high pressure on natural resources and limited economic diversity.
Distance and isolation create logistical challenges, but they host unique biodiversity and cultural richness.
The maritime environment, despite being a solid tourist asset, makes them vulnerable to climate change.
Small Island Developing States face diverse challenges. Their isolation hinders their integration into the global supply chain, increases import costs (especially for energy), and reduces their competitiveness in the tourism industry compared to continental alternatives.
Moreover, tourist islands bear considerable pressure from visitors, demanding
greater efficiency to meet their energy, food, land, and CO2 absorption needs.
However, their ecological footprint exceeds the territory's resource capacity,
resulting in cases of overexploitation of resources. Current solutions do not
align with the specificities of these islands and do not adequately address
their unique challenges.

This scenario worsens on islands destined to host premium and luxury tourism. Where the pressure on resources is not as high, but the demand from the end customer is. Added to all the above is the need to offer a perfect experience where the guest expects to find all kinds of amenities.
The issue with the
isolated areas.
isolated areas.
Isolated areas, particularly rural or remote regions, often face significant energy challenges due to their geographical remoteness. These areas typically lack access to reliable and affordable energy sources, relying heavily on imported fossil fuels or outdated and inefficient energy infrastructure. The high cost of transporting energy resources to these regions not only drives up prices but also increases their vulnerability to supply chain disruptions and environmental degradation.
Additionally, these regions frequently generate organic waste from agricultural activities, livestock, or local industries, which remains largely untapped as an energy resource. Without proper waste management systems, this waste often contributes to environmental pollution or is simply discarded.
Atheryon offers a sustainable solution to these challenges by converting organic waste into clean, renewable energy. By implementing biomethane technology, isolated areas can become more energy independent, reduce their reliance on external fuel sources, and lower their carbon footprint. Moreover, the production of biomethane promotes a circular economy, transforming waste into a valuable resource and helping to create more resilient and sustainable local energy systems in these regions.

Moreover, the production of biomethane promotes a circular economy, transforming waste into a valuable resource and helping to create more resilient and sustainable local energy systems in these regions.
Atheryon has developed a unique model focused on harnessing the abundant organic waste generated by hotels in these exclusive tourist destinations. This revolutionary paradigm turns these waste materials into biomethane, a reliable, sustainable, and inexhaustible energy source that covers all the energy needs of these establishments.
In addition to biomethane production, Atheryon supplies CO2 for water remineralization in hotels with desalination plants and provides biofertilizers to strengthen local agricultural sustainability.
Hotels partnering with Atheryon access a Zero Waste Scheme, experiencing remarkable reductions in both CO2 emissions and environmental footprint. This alliance offers benefits beyond the environmental scope, elevating the hotels' profile, attracting luxury tourism, and increasing their international prestige.
Atheryon's strategy is based on strategic partnerships with technological giants, ensuring the implementation of cutting-edge technology in the conversion of waste into valuable, completely sustainable energy resources.
The launch of the first four plants in the Canary Islands marks the beginning of this grand vision, managing a collective sum of over 100,000 tons of organic waste.
Atheryon's goal is not only to address current challenges but also to redefine sustainability and tourism paradigms on these islands, fostering substantial change towards environmental preservation and economic prosperity.
