How much battery capacity will Spain have by ?
In the latest update of the Spanish National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP), storage capacity is projected to reach 9.5 GW from pumped hydro and 9.4 GW from batteries, alongside an additional 3.6 GW from solar thermal power plants. Similarly, the draft update of Portugal’s NECP aims for 1 GW of installed battery capacity by .
Why are battery storage options more suitable in Spain?
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.
How big will solar batteries be by ?
It is hoped these batteries will have a capacity equivalent to approximately 2.5GW by . While participants in Spain’s renewable energy auction last month were permitted to include bids with energy storage, the technology didn’t feature.
Is combining solar and storage a good idea in Spain?
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.
How many GW of power will Red Eléctrica have in ?
However, current figures show a greater interest in battery projects, with over 10 GW already receiving access and connection permits from Red Eléctrica, and an additional 8 GW in development. Although not all projects will materialize, this suggests that the 9.4 GW target for is well within reach.
What is the electro-chemical battery storage project?
The electro-chemical battery storage project uses lithium-ion battery storage technology. The project was announced in and will be commissioned in . The project is owned and developed by Soto Solar.
