Sosen introduces its SSE-HH40-60K-P3EU model — a high-voltage system featuring simultaneous charging and ultra-fast response, designed to deliver efficiency, backup and autonomy amid potential blackouts and regulatory changes.

Around 85% of Spain’s electrical nodes can no longer admit new demand. While the photovoltaic market faces negative prices and excess capacity, developers are redirecting their projects towards data centres and energy storage.

At the sector’s annual congress, the 12th Solar Forum, UNEF Director General José Donoso highlighted the significant reindustrialization opportunity that photovoltaic energy represents for the country, stating that “there is 70 GW of demand, attracted by the low energy prices offered by photovoltaics in Spain.” Redeia President Beatriz Corredor emphasized that “we are working as quickly as possible to implement the new OP 7.4, for which we began permitting last week.”

The reform of Royal Decree 413/2014 provides relief for special-regime plants, removes barriers to battery integration, and redefines dispatch priority — generating positive expectations within the sector, albeit with nuances regarding its industrial impact.

The Minister of Industry, Energy, and Mines, Jorge Paradela, points out that this is an “essential” investment and that the Regional Government will not accept this “injustice.”

“The commitment to renewables is a commitment to industry,” emphasized Joan Groizard, Secretary of State for Energy, at the opening of the meeting. The panel discussion of energy company CEOs highlighted photovoltaics as a vehicle for geopolitical security in Spain and Europe.
