Spain’s Iberdrola and FCC Ámbito have agreed to work together on the development of new circularity solutions for solar panels, to ensure that 100% of the materials in the modules can be recycled.
A poor showing by the ruling, left-of-center Spanish Socialist Workers’ Party in May’s regional and local elections prompted Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez to call a snap national election for Sunday, July 23. With the vote looming, solar industry insider Kjetil Torper considers the state of Spanish solar.
The decision of the Italian energy firm to acquire a 2.8 GW-plus solar pipeline in Spain and France has come on the same day it was announced Eni would assume 1 GW of solar capacity in Spain from another business. The value of neither deal, nor the form of finance involved, has been revealed.
European renewables, including Spanish solar, made big gains as energy demand recovered before the second wave of Covid infections. Nuclear was a notable loser, in part because clean energy volumes in the north of the continent drove down power prices sufficiently to make reactors uncompetitive.
