HOME / Current status of photovoltaic battery investment in Spain

Spain''s photovoltaic installations will slow down in 2024, and

Spain''s new installed PV capacity this year looks set to fall short of the record 5.8 GW set in 2023, Spanish PV association Unef said on Wednesday. Jose Donoso, director general of Unef, said at the launch of the 2023 PV report that at present, it seems unlikely that we will reach last year''s figures.

6 FAQs about [Current status of photovoltaic battery investment in Spain]

How much does solar power cost in Spain?

The average price was € 42/MWh. The „duck curve” - in the Spanish „pato” - clearly shows the influence of solar power generation in Spain, while the influence of more expensive generation methods can be seen at peak consumption times (around 9.00 pm), when the sun is no longer shining.

How much solar energy did Spain produce in 2023?

Thus, this surpasses the 37,472 GWh produced in the whole of 2023 The amount of solar photovoltaic energy generated in Spain up to 5 October 2024 was more than all the energy registered in 2023, according to data provided by Red Eléctrica.

Can Spanish PV systems operate profitably if the price situation does not change?

Accordingly, operators of Spanish PV systems are now faced with the question of how to operate their systems profitably in the future if the price situation on the Iberian Peninsula does not change.

Can battery storage systems be retrofitted in Spain?

The first solution is battery storage systems that enable peak shift, i.e. feeding electricity into the grid at times when the wholesale price is higher, usually before and after sunset. Fortunately, the retrofitting of battery storage systems in Spain is unproblematic from a regulatory perspective.

What challenges does the solar industry face in Spain?

Despite the impressive growth, the domestic PV industry faces several challenges, including uneven regional progress. While most regions in Spain are embracing solar energy, some areas are imposing barriers such as retroactive taxes or moratoriums. UNEF calls for more supportive regulations, particularly for self-consumption and energy storage.

How many MWAC does solar self-consumption have in Spain?

The solar self-consumption segment added a total of 1,706 MWac (2,047 MWdc), down 32% year-on-year, in a sign of sector stabilisation following the power price-driven installation peak in 2022. The added capacity is reflected in the increasing share of solar power in Spain's energy mix.
