Karol Nawrocki won Poland’s presidential election in a run-off on 1 June with 50.89% of the vote. His critical stance on the European Green Deal and his defence of coal as a strategic resource raise concerns in the renewable energy sector. Krzysztof Jaworski, political and energy analyst, warns Strategic Energy Europe: “Renewables will face a new institutional veto”.
During the Storage, Renewable, and EV Integration Forum, Cristina Caballero, senior regulator at AELEC, warned about the technical challenges facing the Spanish electricity grid following the Iberian blackout. She called for investments in infrastructure, capacity markets, and agile planning to ensure a robust system in the face of high renewable penetration.
Manuel de Castro Zurita, Executive Partner of the firm, warns that the market could contract this year, and therefore calls on the Government to expand the connection radius and release grid capacity at distribution level to enable new industrial installations.
The Commission has presented a Guidance document on anticipatory investments for developing forward-looking electricity networks. With an estimated €730 billion for distribution and €477 billion for transmission grid developments needed by 2040, the document addresses EU countries, national regulatory authorities, as well as transmission and distribution system operators.
Luis Alvargonzález (Zelestra), Enrique De Ramón (Zelestra), Gonzalo Barba (TotalEnergies) and Gonzalo Feito (Sungrow) will be among the key figures speaking at FES Iberia on June 24, where over 400 executives will discuss the recent blackout, grid modernization, energy storage, PPAs, regulation and energy security.
Jacopo Tosoni, Head of Policy at the European Association for Storage of Energy (EASE), warns that the energy storage industry will experience a qualitative leap in 2026, with an expansion that will triple current levels. He made this statement at the Storage, Renewable and EV Integration Forum, organized by Strategic Energy Europe. He also highlighted regulatory, fiscal and technical bottlenecks that are still hindering the sector’s growth.
With barely a year in the European market, CLOU has already secured contracts for 240 MWh in Poland and 96 MWh in Greece. Its strategy centers on storage solutions for Utility Scale and the Commercial & Industrial (C&I) markets, with special focus on four key regions: the United Kingdom, Germany, Poland, and Spain. “The recent blackout was the missing signal to fully commit to energy storage,” emphasizes Hayat Kebir Tio, General Manager for the EU and UK.
As of April 2025, the National Energy Regulatory Authority (ANRE) reports that 1,228 projects with a capacity equal to or greater than 1 MW have valid connection permits. Only 11% of them are fully authorized, and only 35 incorporate storage, with a total capacity of 1,519 MW.
Order TED/542/2025, published today in the Official State Gazette (BOE), regulates the grants of the Renocicla Programme, funded by the Next Generation EU initiative and aimed at companies promoting the circular economy in renewable energy equipment.
According to the latest report from international consultancy Wood Mackenzie, “Horizons – May 2025,” escalating trade tensions may significantly disrupt supply chains, increase project costs, and delay the energy transition just as the sector reaches a critical phase of expansion.
The rollout of new solar plants, offshore wind farms, and hybrid projects across Europe—along with recent milestones such as Spain’s first industrial microgrid—solidifies Iberdrola’s position at the heart of the energy transition. This strategy will be central to the presentation by Julio Castro, CEO of Iberdrola Spain, at FES Iberia 2025, taking place on June 24 in Madrid, with over 400 leaders from the energy sector in attendance.
Experts highlight critical aspects of the BOE and anticipate regulatory risks that must be avoided in order to participate in the grant programme, which could cover up to 85% of project costs in less developed regions.
With over 800 MW operational across Europe, Automa rolls out solutions for hybrid and storage projects, underpinned by SCADA technology and strategic alliances. “Spain is set to grow significantly in the storage sector,” anticipates Giorgio Inforzato, European Sales Director.
The CEO of Iberdrola Spain warned that while renewables were not the cause of the system collapse, they created a context that worsened the event due to lack of inertia. He demands full transparency and publication of the actual data to understand what went wrong.
The regional government has learned first-hand about the ErasmoPower2X project, which plans to build an integrated photovoltaic and green hydrogen plant in the municipality of Saceruela. The project was presented during a meeting held today with the participation of ErasmoPower2X’s Chief Executive Officer, Bas Dekker, Project Manager Violeta Alonso, and the Mayor of Saceruela, José Fernández Teno.
Although uncertainty about the causes persists, sector experts are calling for greater inertia, flexibility and faster system services to safeguard the grid.
As Europe accelerates its transition to renewable energy, a new player is emerging with a bold vision and a unique European footprint. Maxxen Energy, a company born from Swiss precision, European quality, and the Turkish industrial edge, is redefining what it means to manufacture energy storage solutions — close to the market, built for performance, and engineered for resilience.
The Valdezorita solar project, one of the largest ever developed by ABO Energy, illustrates how bilateral PPAs can secure long-term financing. In an interview with Strategic Energy Europe, Ingo Burdack-Debes discusses regulatory challenges and the progress of the company’s storage strategy in key markets like Germany and Spain.
The Commission’s assessment shows that the EU is currently on course to reduce net GHG emissions by around 54% by 2030, compared to 1990 levels, if Member States implement fully existing and planned national measures and EU policies. In the current geopolitical context, this demonstrates that the EU is staying the course on its climate commitments, investing with determination in the clean energy transition and prioritising the EU’s industrial competitiveness and the social dimension.
Marketing for the International Electrification and Decarbonization Week is moving forward strongly with more than 700 companies confirmed.
