Spain Power Report Q4 2015 - New Market Study Published

Spain's power sector is very well developed, with extensive generation and capacity making the country a net electricity exporter. As a mature market there are few new developments in the pipeline and we expect generation to remain largely stagnant over the forecast period, though renewables do provide some capacity for growth. An uncertain regulatory environment and limited consumption growth will likely continue to deter investors, and many of Spain's large electricity firms are increasingly focused on overseas opportunities.

Non-hydropower renewables will see the most consistent growth over the forecast period, with a range of both wind and solar power projects in the pipeline, adding to total generation. We expect non-hydropower renewables generation to increase from 68.6 terawatt hours (TWh) in 2015, around a quarter of total generation, to 79.4TWh in 2024, increasing the share to 29.1%. Over the same period total generation will remain steady at around 273TWh as renewables compensate for a contraction in coal and oil thermal power. Spain is expected to record more positive economic growth over the short to medium term, indicating potential for an increase in domestic consumption however overall we expect Spain to remain a net electricity export - an expectation supported by the increasing focus on expanding interconnections with neighbouring France and from there throughout Europe in order to increase power security in the region.
