SolarPower Europe forecasts that Spain will add around 37 gigawatts of new capacity by 2028 in its medium scenario. Like many other markets, Spain faces challenges for large-scale PV power purchase agreements as negative spot prices and zero-price hours become more common.
The growth of co-located hybrid plants and large-scale battery storage is helping to mitigate these challenges, especially when combined with grid upgrades, electricity pricing reforms, and greater integration of solar power for power-to-heat and e-mobility solutions.
