Spain’s renewables generated 13,742 GWh of electrical energy in January, up by 40.9% year-on-year, in response to the most recent preliminary figures launched by Spanish grid operator Purple Electrica de Espana (REE).
It was the very best stage of month-to-month electrical energy manufacturing for renewables since information started, REE mentioned.
The renewables share within the January energy combine was 57.4%, primarily because of push from wind farms. Fixed and reasonable winds enabled wind farms to extend manufacturing by 39.2% year-on-year to 7,537 GWh in January. Photo voltaic PV output rose by 6.3%, whereas hydroelectric vegetation, dried up for months final 12 months, boosted manufacturing by 93.8% in comparison with January 2022, REE mentioned.
Manufacturing particulars for main applied sciences in Spain are introduced within the desk:
| Expertise: | Share in January 2023: | Estimated manufacturing (in GWh): | y/y change: |
| Wind | 31.5% | 7,537 | 39.2% |
| Hydro | 16.9% | 4,042 | 93.8% |
| Photo voltaic PV | 7% | 1,668 | 6.3% |
| Photo voltaic CSP | 0.5% | 121 | -29.0% |
| Different renewables | 1.3% | 303 | -29.3% |
| Nuclear | 21.2% | 5,084 | 0.7% |
| Cogeneration | 5.1% | 1,223 | -43.1% |
| Mixed-cycle | 11.2% | 2,686 | -54.5% |
| Coal | 1.3% | 319 | -55.1% |
Demand for electrical energy throughout Spain’s territory fell by 3% on the 12 months to an estimated 22,052 GWh. Adjusted for temperatures and labour patterns, demand dropped by, nationwide demand dropped by 4.1% in comparison with January final 12 months.
