The Spanish Ministry of Ecological Transition (MITECO) has awarded €360 million (US$415 million) to 1.14GW of solar PV co-located with battery energy storage system (BESS) projects.
Although the programme, called RENOINN 2, was open to other technologies co-located with BESS, solar PV accounted for nearly the entire volume awarded, 1.22GW. In total, the programme allocated €433 million in funding to 524 renewable energy projects co-located with BESS, of which 463 were co-located with solar PV.
On the BESS front, the programme awarded 2.3GWh of energy storage capacity, eight times the awarded capacity (351.6MWh) in the first iteration of the programme.
