Learn MoreThe market energy storage in Spain, particularly in relation to the BESS systems (Battery Energy Storage Systems), is undergoing a dynamic and accelerated evolution. This transformation is driven by the growing need to integrate renewable energy sources into the electricity grid, improve supply stability and optimize energy use.
To support this growth, Spain has implemented several policies and regulations that encourage the development of energy storage. The Energy Storage Strategy 2030, promoted by the Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge, is one of the key initiatives. This strategy aims to achieve a storage capacity of 20 GW by 2030.
In Spain, various technologies are emerging and evolving to meet the needs of renewable energy storage. Below, we explore some of the main technologies used in energy storage: The lithium ion batteries are currently the most popular choice in the energy storage sector.
Namely, from 43 €/MWh (lower case) to 52.5 €/MWh and from 47 €/MWh (high case) to 56.5 €/MWh. This is comparable with the 67 €/MWh LCOH for the TES with retail charges. In Spain, subsidies for storage will be granted through four calls under the PERTE ERHA1 scheme.
Despite having a clear strategy and ambitious goals in the sector of energy storage In Spain, subsidies and direct aid specific to these technologies remain limited. This creates a significant barrier for companies and individuals interested in investing in energy storage solutions.
El thermal storage Solar thermal power is another emerging technology in Spain, especially in the context of solar thermal power plants. This method allows heat to be stored in the form of thermal energy to be converted into electricity during the night or during cloudy periods.
