Europe’s energy storage market has hit a turning point. What was once a scattered, early-phase market featuring pilot projects and daring developers has swiftly evolved into a dynamic, capital-intensive infrastructure sector, writes Wood Mackenzie research associate Cecilie Kristiansen.

SMA presenta un nuevo inversor y un sistema de almacenamiento para el sector comercial e industrial que estará a la venta a mediados de 2026, y Growatt lanza un sistema de almacenamiento en AC de 5 kWh para balcones.

Las solicitudes deberán presentarse electrónicamente hasta el 19 de febrero de 2026. Se trata de una convocatoria con mayor margen para ejecutar los proyectos -hasta cinco años desde la resolución, frente a los dos y medio anteriores.

El proyecto, promovido por Ignis, operará bajo un esquema de autoconsumo con excedentes para conectar las instalaciones del Centro de Procesamiento de Datos Ignis Data Beta II, de 181,62 MW de potencia, con la red de transporte.

En generación, renovables y nuclear cubrirán conjuntamente alrededor del 50% de la electricidad mundial en 2030. La producción renovable crecerá unos 1.000 TWh anuales, con la solar fotovoltaica aportando más de 600 TWh cada año.

El Boletín Oficial del Estado publicó en la segunda semana de febrero cinco proyectos renovables, entre los que destaca una planta fotovoltaica de 0,875 MW ubicada en Granada.

Los principales fabricantes solares prevén pérdidas netas en 2025, ya que el aumento de los costes de las materias primas y la debilidad de los precios del silicio industrial reducen los márgenes en todo el sector de la fabricación de productos fotovoltaicos.

Para ejecutar la nueva instalación se retirará previamente la existente que cuenta con 91,6 kW. El presupuesto total asciende a 119.957 euros. Las empresas interesadas podrán presentar sus ofertas hasta el 13 de febrero.

<p>Die deutsche Wasserstoffpipeline von nirgendwo nach nirgendwo entstand nicht aus Ignoranz oder Gleichgültigkeit.
