Our initiatives
November 5, 2024Spain is accelerating its energy transition with projects such as Endesa’s hybrid wind-solar park in Teruel and the installation of batteries at Iberdrola’s solar plant in Cáceres, which combine generation and storage to increase the efficiency and reliability of the grid.
November 5, 2024With significant growth in renewable technologies, Spain has reached 31,580 MW in wind energy, 29,646 MW in solar, and 17,102 MW in hydropower. The autonomous communities contribute in diverse ways: Extremadura and Castilla-La Mancha lead with more than 6,500 MW each in solar, while Castilla y León and Aragón stand out in wind, with 6,952 MW and 5,487 MW respectively.
November 5, 2024Italy has made significant progress in renewable energy, registering 2.2 GW of projects under environmental processing in October 2024, according to a report by Energía Estratégica España. Agrovoltaic and wind power projects are leading the expansion, although some offshore wind and storage projects were also presented.
November 5, 2024Iberdrola has restored 99% of the supply, and Red Eléctrica is working to repair the affected transmission system. There is still no data on damage to the plants, but the sector claims that self-consumption was the most affected. Business owners are advised to contact their insurance companies, who will process claims through the State’s Insurance Compensation Consortium.
November 4, 2024With an aging nuclear fleet and delays in the construction of new reactors, the French government is relying on wind and solar energy to strengthen its energy security. “It cannot do without wind and solar,” says Paul Neau, an expert in energy transition, emphasizing that these resources will be key in addressing the country’s electrical challenges, which include political tensions and administrative complexity in project development.
November 4, 2024With a production value of at least €4.5/kg, hydrogen is far from competing with the declining forecast for gas by 2030. In light of this, analysts suggest to Energía Estratégica España that the intention to make the tax on energy companies permanent could be used as a reason to postpone investments.
