As the renewable energy sector rapidly evolves, battery energy storage systems (BESS) are emerging as a critical pillar for decarbonization. However, with capital constraints and rising market
As things stand in Spain, batteries will need a significant boost from capacity prices to fill the gap above wholesale, balancing & ancillary revenue streams. The ‘pay as bid’ structure of the capacity market can help battery assets achieve this.
Some 35 battery sites with a total scale of 690.2 MW/2.82 GWh will receive €150 million under the program. A further 10 thermal storage sites will receive €6.48 million and add 88.35 MW/591.27 MWh of capacity to Spain’s grid. All the projects will be operational in either 2025 or 2026.
Battery plants picked up more than 655 MW of capacity in the auction, with a clearing price of £35.79 per kW a year. This volume was dwarfed by the almost 3 GW of capacity awarded to gas plants, which is likely a guide to what will happen in Spain as well.
Batteries look set for a boost in Spain this year as the country introduces a capacity market to help integrate renewable energy into the grid. The launch of the nation’s first capacity market was announced in October 2023, following a consultation in 2021. - It will a...
Balancing markets are another key source of battery revenue, but regulatory reform is required for batteries to access the Spanish balancing market. This is likely to happen relatively quickly but creates uncertainty around the level of balancing revenues.
The ‘pay as bid’ structure of the capacity market can help battery assets achieve this. Batteries may be very flexible, but they are constrained by relatively short duration response (e.g. a 1 to 4 hours discharge range).
