The average wholesale electricity price in August 2025 in Portugal is forecast to amount to*******euros per megawatt-hour, a decrease from the previous month.
The assessment adds zinc batteries, thermal energy storage, and gravitational energy storage. The 2020 Cost and Performance Assessment provided the levelized cost of energy. The 2022 Cost and Performance Assessment
The cost of energy storage is typically measured in dollars per kilowatt-hour (kWh) of storage capacity. According to the same BloombergNEF report, the average cost of lithium-ion batteries was $132 per kWh in 2021.
Portugal’s recent PV auction marks a new era of battery storage for the country, says UK consultancy Everoze. It notes that the auction was so competitive that the winners had to cut their expected remuneration in the solar+storage category to negative values.
The Portuguese Government came into this auction expecting to obtain 33.5 thousand euros per MWh, but the winners ended up paying to 37.1 thousand euros per MWh to the system. Also, the World record for the lowest output price was broken once again with a bid of €0.0112/kWh. In Spain, the development of solar energy started earlier.
Particularly in solar, there has been a significant reduction of costs associated with PV technology since 2017 which, alongside with the high level of predictability of solar resources, has led to an increase of the number of requests for energy production licenses in Portugal.
The electricity price for businesses is $0.150 USD per kWh. 3 The average wholesale electricity price in Portugal stood at $32.88 USD per megawatt-hour in May 2024. 4 Portugal’s electricity grid has proven reliable, with a peak generation capacity of 19,974 MW significantly surpassing the peak consumption of 8,794 MW in February 2018.
This is a market with high growth potential where, until the end of 2030, Portugal intends on reaching 9 GW of solar photovoltaic ("PV") installed capacity, and Spain has set the objective of reaching 37 GW, against a current installed capacity of, respectively, 1,030 MW and 11,547 MW.
The Portuguese government has revealed preliminary results from the nation's second solar auction. It allocated 670 MW of solar capacity, instead of 700 MW, as initially planned, with the auction drawing the world’s lowest bid for a large-scale PV project at €0.01114 ($0.01316)/kWh.
