July 23, 2025New IRENA report confirms cost-competitiveness of renewables; warns of mounting grid integration and financing challenges notably in emerging and capital-constrained markets
July 23, 2025Current administrative milestones remain in place, creating a bottleneck in the integration of renewables into the grid. Without a demand boost, the risk of imbalances and zero and negative price hours in the system will increase. An opportunity to promote collective self-consumption and system flexibility is being missed. Investments in storage, self-consumption and electrical grids remain in limbo. APPA Renovables warns of the collapse that will result from the inadequacy of the milestones, as well as the impact of not boosting storage and demand.
July 23, 2025Royal Decree 7/2025 was essential to boost storage deployment and strengthen shared self-consumption. The rejection of the reform has no technical or ideological basis, but rather responds more to political tactics and the constant need to win the narrative.
July 21, 2025Tomorrow, Congress will vote on the anti-blackout decree aimed at strengthening Spain’s electricity system. The regulation enjoys broad support from the renewable energy sector, but its approval hinges on a delicate political balance.
July 21, 2025During FES Iberia 2025, Galp’s Global Head of Growth, Fernando Cremades, outlined the company’s strategy to lead Spain’s energy transition. “If we do not accelerate demand, we risk halting the entire sector,” warns the executive.
July 21, 2025In the joint letter, they urge MPs to support RDL 7/2025, highlighting its technical reforms to stabilise the grid, attract investment, and strengthen the legal certainty of projects in Spain.
July 18, 2025MITECO opens up 3,681 MW across eight key grid nodes. The mechanism prioritises industrial decarbonisation, economic investment, and swift project execution.
July 18, 2025Yesterday in Brussels, the European Commission presented its proposal for the next Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF – the EU’s long-term budget for 2028-2034). Thanks to new own resources, this budget would reach close to €2 trillion.
July 18, 2025At FES Iberia 2025, Ramón Cidón, Development Director at IGNIS, explained how the company is adapting its business model to a context of low prices and grid saturation. “We are shifting from volume to value, prioritising the economic return of every megawatt we generate,” the executive stated.
July 18, 2025Renewables supplied 12,461 GWh in June, spearheaded by solar PV at 26% of the generation mix. APPA’s report also highlights a 10.5% increase in electricity demand and growing market price volatility.
July 18, 2025Despite a 26% year-on-year contraction in contracted volumes, solar power remains a key player in Europe’s PPA market. Energy storage systems are expanding rapidly, while utilities gain ground over corporate buyers.
July 18, 2025The reform of the ROTU, published on 8 July, suspends permits for battery projects >3 MW on non-developable land. The industry warns of multi-million-euro investment losses and a regulation lacking technical basis.
July 17, 2025Despite monthly volatility, solar PV maintained its leadership and opportunities are emerging with hybrid contracts towards the end of the year. Miguel Marroquín warns that “the market urgently needs redesigning”.
July 17, 2025At FES Iberia 2025, Pedro González, Managing Director of AEGE, highlighted the loss of industrial competitiveness driven by soaring electricity costs. “This will be the fourth most expensive year since 1998,” he warns, calling for regulatory changes to facilitate access to physical PPAs and decouple renewable energy prices from the wholesale market.
July 17, 2025Investments of €3.2 billion are planned over ten years to strengthen the efficiency, resilience, and sustainability of the regional electricity system; with Efficient Territorial Planning, Terna promotes integrated and shared planning of energy infrastructure.
July 16, 2025In an exclusive audiovisual interview with Strategic Energy during FES Iberia 2025, Laura Nuez Santana, Head of Production and Business Development at IPROCEL, outlines how the company is diversifying its services to lead the global energy transition. The Canary Islands-based firm plans to expand into Brazil, Ecuador and Panama, and already boasts over 50 GW of installed capacity across 40 countries.
July 16, 2025At FES Iberia 2025, Carlos Píñar Celestino, Managing Director of Elmya, addressed the challenges facing the EPC sector in Ibero-America and Europe. He pointed out that regulatory unpredictability and abrupt policy changes directly impact costs and sector efficiency.
July 16, 2025Alejandro Fuster, Technical Director of Spain DC, warns at FES Iberia 2025 that the sector’s power consumption will skyrocket from 200 MW in 2024 to 730 MW by 2026. He urges regulatory changes to prevent losing key investments in data centers.
July 15, 2025The units feature hybrid cooling, high operational efficiency and scalable architecture, optimised to reduce peak demand and stabilise intensive energy consumption.
July 15, 2025The company manages a 700 MW pipeline of stand-alone storage projects and is preparing to begin construction of its first hybrid plants. “It’s only a matter of time before we start installation,” says Sergio Arbeláez, Managing Director Europe & Latam at Matrix Renewables, during his participation at FES Iberia 2025.
July 15, 2025The Director of Communication, Institutional Relations, Regulation and Corporate Strategy at ENGIE Spain warns that unless demand is reactivated and regulatory bottlenecks are cleared, the sector will face a paralysis that threatens investment and jobs. “We have a market that recorded €1.6/MWh – that’s unsustainable,” he stresses.
