expected ROI of enterprise ESS system project in Spain 2025

How much energy storage will Spain have by ?

In its National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP), the Spanish government aims to have 22.5GW of energy storage by (see table 1). This amount of storage capacity will be needed to integrate the growing capacity of intermittent generation.

Why did BW ESS move to Spain?

For BW ESS, a firm with a growing global portfolio across the UK, Australia, and other parts of Europe, the move into Spain is a calculated one. “We have a common objective to improve Spain’s grid resilience and support the market’s ambitious energy storage growth targets,” said Isaac Garcia Moreno, Executive Director of BW ESS.

How many Bess projects are there in Spain?

In March , UK companies Renewco and Atlantica announced the development of up to 2.2GW of BESS projects across Spain. Other projects in the pipeline primarily involve storage co-located with solar or wind generation. According to BloombergNEF, the total capacity currently in the BESS pipeline is around 3GW.

What is Spain's regulatory framework for energy storage?

Spain’s regulatory framework for BESS is set in its Strategy for Energy Storage. The Strategy identifies the required regulatory measures – such as grid access, market structure, and addressing double tolling – that are currently needed to ensure the deployment of a solid energy storage market.

Why is BW ESS partnering with ibersun?

Isaac Garcia Moreno, Executive Director of BW ESS, said: “We are proud to be developing our first projects in Spain with Ibersun, a trusted partner with over 25 years of market experience. We have a common objective to improve Spain’s grid resilience and support the market’s ambitious energy storage growth targets.

Does Spain need a Bess energy system?

Currently, Spain has 6.3GW of hydroelectric and 1GW of thermal storage capacity installed. In fact, the non-BESS storage capacity in Spain is higher than in any other European country. As a result, the need for BESS to integrate renewable energy sources into the electricity system is less immediate than in the UK, for example.
