This report delves into the policies, technological advances, and market forces shaping Spain’s rise as Europe’s second-largest solar market. It also highlights the challenges ahead, from grid integration to price stability.
For installations of less than 10 kWp, the most common for homes, the amount can reach up to €600 per kWp. If you add a battery, you get a subsidy of €490 per kWh. Income Tax Deduction (IRPF). For the installation of solar panels in Spain, a discount of 20% to 60% can be obtained. This percentage varies depending on the autonomous communities.
This variability, combined with Spain’s excellent solar resources, make the economics of combining solar with storage increasingly favorable. The market for utility-scale batteries has been almost non-existent until recently as the market has lacked a clear policy and regulatory framework.
By 2026, nearly 29.3 gigawatts will have been installed in Spain, making Spain the second country in Europe with the most solar power. Such an increase is not surprising, given the number of sunshine hours in this country and the various incentives that have been implemented to facilitate the energy transition in homes and businesses.
Although wind is currently the most used renewable resource in the Mediterranean country, solar energy is growing at a very fast pace. In fact, the solar capacity installed has more than quintupled in the last five years. In 2023, Spain was the sixth country worldwide in terms of new capacity additions.
