Renewable has been the star sector in the Spanish energy market during the last years. The country weather conditions, the existence of a relevant experienced industry, the availability of financing, the support of the public administration and the recent policies have resulted in a very successful cocktail, permitting a significant development of renewable technologies making Spain a global leader in this field.
Specifically, early this year, the Government announced a new set of legislation to promote and update the Spanish renewable legal framework. Apart from other provisions, recently, a new provision has been passed to regulate a new economic regime based on competitive auctions under the principle ‘paid-as-bid’. Additionally, before ending 2020, a new rule on access and connection to the grid is expected to be approved and, early 2021, a law on energy transition.
