Which energy sources generate the most electricity in Spain in 2023?
In 2023, renewable energy sources accounted for a record share of the electricity generated in Spain at 50.4%. In the same year, wind farms overtook gas plants as the main source of electricity generation. Gas plants experienced a decline in share from 24% in 2022 to 17% in 2023.
What is Spain's energy storage strategy?
To increase stability and flexibility in its network as it decarbonizes its energy sector, Spain announced an Energy Storage Strategy (PDF) (March 2022) aimed at developing 20 GW of storage capacity by 2030 and 30 GW by 2050.
Can Spain and Portugal lead the energy transition in Europe?
A McKinsey & Co report shows that Spain and Portugal have an “unprecedented opportunity” to lead the energy transition in Europe. Jose Pimenta da Gama, Senior Partner at McKinsey, says: “With Europe’s energy transition in full swing, there is a real opportunity for the Iberian Peninsula to lead it.
How will Spain transform its energy system?
The Spanish government is exploring ways to persuade the private sector to invest $118 billion (€110 billion) for the transformation of its own energy system to expand renewable power generation, modernize its transport system, and refit buildings to make them more energy efficient through 2030.
Will Spain & Portugal achieve green energy goals by 2050?
Spain and Portugal are aiming for 11 gigawatts and 5.5 gigawatts respectively in capacity for green hydrogen production by 2030. Meeting these green energy goals won’t be cheap, requiring an estimated investment of €2.5tn (US$2.7tn) and €500bn (US$554bn) by 2050 for Spain and Portugal respectively.
