Sunwafe SL has protected the largest share of Spain’s € 297.3 million ($ 321.6 million) for the production of clean energy, because the government increases support for domestic production.
The Ministry of Spain for ecological transition and the Demographic Challenge (Miteco) has released the provisional results of the renewal program under the Institute for Energy Diversification and Saving (Idae), for the time being assigned to € 297.3 million in 34 projects for production equipment and components that are essential for the Sector of Spain.
Eleven projects focus on producing and compiling electrolyzers and other components for green hydrogen. Another eleven are structures and equipment of wind energy. Seven are photovoltaic projects for solar energy, four decks of battery equipment and components for electrical storage and a focus is on the production of heat pump.
