Spain''s €700M Battery Storage Expansion: 8.9GWh Funded,
Spain''s battery storage program expanded to €840M, funding 143 projects totaling 8.9GWh. Learn how this initiative creates opportunities for solar-storage hybrids and boosts
The European Commission has approved a new aid scheme that will allow Spain to deploy large-scale electricity storage, both in hybridisation with renewable energy facilities and stand-alone and thermal.
Spain has launched an ambitious €700 million (around $796 million) program to increase its energy storage capacity. This plan will add 2.5 to 3.5 gigawatts (GW) of storage. It includes pumped hydro, thermal energy storage, and battery systems.
Investing in energy storage helps Spain meet its climate goals. This includes achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. Storing renewable energy instead of wasting it helps the country rely less on fossil fuels. This also cuts down greenhouse gas emissions. Pumped hydro, thermal storage, and battery systems are effective technologies.
