“The meeting of renewable energy leaders is an opportunity to lay the groundwork for what may come in the coming months,” says Juan Antonio Irastorza.
The data, revealed by IPTO, highlights a structural issue in the Greek grid, unable to absorb the rapid growth in renewables. The sector is demanding compensation, urgent measures, and accelerated deployment of storage to prevent further losses.
The Iberian market recorded increases of 161% and 172% in average prices. The increase is attributed to “a spring without sun or wind” and warns about the impact of renewables on waste and uncounted generation.
It is one of five projects from the first energy sandbox awarded in Spain, promoting demand flexibility to reduce costs, integrate renewables, and transform the electricity system toward a more efficient and sustainable model.
In an interview with Strategic Energy Europe, Jorge Paradela Gutiérrez, Minister of Industry, Energy and Mines, details how the region will surpass 20 GW of renewable energy by 2026, deploy 23 green hydrogen projects worth €5.5 billion, double the number of energy communities, and consolidate alliances with Germany and the Netherlands.
In the first quarter of 2025, solar PPA buyers are offering contracts between €25 and €30/MWh, although projects are only viable starting at €35/MWh. This has led to a minimal volume of contracts. In contrast, wind power is trading above €50/MWh, with peaks of up to €54/MWh, but there are no wind farms available to sell this energy.
The Ministry of Environment and Energy Security will reactivate the selection process for agrivoltaic systems on April 1. Regulatory adjustments are being made following the limited results of the first call, which allocated only 4% of the planned target.
The private sector warns that the new criteria fall short of expectations, prioritizing budget savings over project maturity. They will seek to modify this point during the appeals process.
The manufacturer of solutions that facilitate the installation of photovoltaic modules confirms its participation in Future Energy Summit, the most important meeting of the renewable energy sector and will present its TCS line, a comprehensive support system that allows for the safe, trenchless installation of overhead solar cabling, optimizing time and costs.
The Ministry of Economy and Finance (MITECO) has opened public consultation on the draft regulations, which provide €699 million in aid, with coverage of up to 85%. Andrés Pinilla Antón analyzes the strengths, regulatory gaps, and risks of repeating past mistakes in the implementation of aid.
The Italian electricity transmission system operator, Terna, has launched a record €17.7 billion plan to accelerate the energy transition, modernize the grid, and strengthen resilience against climate change. The strategy foresees over 99% of investments aligned with the European green taxonomy and aims to integrate 107 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2030.
The Government supports offshore wind energy and foresees a historic deployment with the Ports Decree and the new auctions of 3.8 GW under the FER 2 framework. The Italian Offshore Wind Association (AERO) states that these measures, along with projects that have obtained approved Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA), will drive the development of the sector.
The awarded projects total nearly 189 MW and must be operational by April 2026. The average bid price was €52,589/MW/year, below the European ceiling.
This agreement involves the installation of over 3,800 solar trackers in the Seville region, solidifying Andalucías, position as a key hub for photovoltaic solar energy in Europe.
The initiative will allocate more than one million euros to promote projects that foster a fair energy transition.
Among the main topics that marked the third edition of the FERC was the need to boost renewable energy storage capacity in the archipelago. Representatives of the Canary Islands government have announced new calls for grants of up to €30 million to promote self-consumption.
VSC converters, advanced cooling, and algorithmic control are the main challenges Norvento addresses in power electronics, with digital innovation, modularity, and local production as the keys to scaling and competing globally.
The British ambassador to Spain, Alex Ellis, held initial meetings with Antonio Morales to discuss ties between the British and the island.
The European Commission approves several strategic projects to guarantee the supply of essential raw materials, including one for Spain.
Cape Verde has launched an international public tender to install photovoltaic systems in water wells and pumping stations, as part of an innovative debt conversion agreement with Portugal.
