Spain’s energy storage tenders Izcue added that with Spain’s first tender for energy storage to be co-located with renewables – which awarded 1.8GWh of capacity – projects are expected to be much smaller, as is the case of Spanish utility Iberdrola which was awarded 300MW of BESS to be co-located with existing solar PV plants.
It will deploy six 25MW/50MWh lithium-ion systems in the regions of Castilla y León, Extremadura, Castilla La Mancha and Andalusia. However, with the results of an upcoming 2.4GWh Spanish standalone energy storage tender to be unveiled, in the coming months, Izcue expects the size of battery storage projects built to increase.
During a panel at Sungrow’s event, Alberto Quesada, head of engineering at renewables developer Fotowatio Renewable Ventures (FRV) explained the reason for the Spanish market to be behind in the energy storage scene is due to the lack of specific regulation and a lack of capacity market, adding: “You can only go to the wholesale market.”
Stay up-to-date with the latest edition by signing up for updates. The targets are set. For Spain, achieving 20 GW of large-scale energy storage deployment is a key milestone in securing a 100% renewable electricity system by 2050.
A report last year by Aurora Energy Research highlighted that 5% of Spain’s renewable energy generation could face economic curtailment between 2025 and 2030, which Quesada said was expected to increase in the coming year. However, long-duration energy storage (LDES) could reduce or eliminate these constraints with the deployment of 15GW LDES.
