A power system heavily solar dependent in 2030 will require high levels of short duration battery storage installed in Spain in the near future. Spain is relatively isolated from other markets and only has limited import and export capacity to France, Portugal and Morocco.
GEM data show that as of May 2024, Spain already has 29.5 GW of utility-scale solar energy installed, and 7.8 GW under construction, accounting for 60% of the country’s target of 57 GW of utility-scale solar PV and 5 GW of solar thermal installations by 2030.
Promotion of Self-Consumption: The Spanish government has taken significant steps to promote self-consumption of solar energy, including the approval of a road map with over thirty measures aimed at facilitating its deployment.
As a result, shorter duration storage options like batteries are more suitable in Spain. In Spain, over 50% of excess renewable energy occurs in periods where there is continuous excess for less than 12 hours i.e. a battery that chooses to charge on this energy would be able to discharge within 12 hours.
Spain boasts Europe’s largest pipeline of utility-scale renewables projects in development – led by utility-scale solar, where Spain’s prospective capacity (113.9 GW) is more than the next three countries combined.
Utility-scale solar and wind projects are widely distributed throughout Spain. Given the country’s geographical characteristics, northern Spain has the lion’s share of operating and prospective wind projects, in regions such as Aragón, Galicia and Castilla y León.
