Unlocking Opportunity
As a result, shorter duration storage options like batteries are more suitable in Spain. In Spain, over 50% of excess renewable energy occurs in periods where there is continuous excess for less than 12 hours i.e. a battery that chooses to charge on this energy would be able to discharge within 12 hours. This allows batteries to charge and
