Spain’s Council of Ministers has approved a royal decree to promote energy storage, accelerate electrification and tighten supervision of the national electricity grid, the Ministry for the Ecological Transition and Demographic Challenge (MITECO) says.
The regulation, which revives provisions from the ‘Anti-Blackout Decree’ that was not adopted in July, sets an energy storage target of 22.5 GW by 2030.

The National Commission for Markets and Competition (CNMC) will be given extensive powers to monitor market participants, publish quarterly reports and carry out inspections every three years.
