Technical FAQs 4

Is Spain's solar boom collapsing revenues?

Spain's solar boom is collapsing revenues. As installed capacity has soared from under 10 GW in 2018 to 33 GW in 2025, the average capture price for solar generators has collapsed. Annual capture rates for solar have fallen from 83% in 2023 to 67% in 2024 and have averaged 56% so far in 2025. Get full access to Modo Energy Research

Why are Spanish energy prices so low?

Two structural factors limit how negative Spanish prices can go: Limited interconnection:Spain's 3 GW link with France is isolating it from the negative price contagion in Central Europe. When German prices reach -€150/MWh, Spain can't import enough energy to bring the price down.

How much hydropower does Spain have?

Hydropower dominance Spain operates 17 GW of hydro capacity plus 3.3 GW of pumped storage. These assets have historically provided: Free synchronous inertia from spinning turbines when running Seasonal energy storage in reservoirs.

Does Spain have negative electricity prices?

Until 2024, Spain had never experienced negative wholesale electricity prices. However, that is changing, and the number of negative price hours is growing faster than in France and Germany in 2025. However, there's a crucial difference: while negative hours are increasing, prices remain close to €0/MWh rather than plunging deeply negative.
