Spain runs Europe's third-largest electricity grid behind Germany and France, with renewables providing 56% of generation in 2024 — wind 24%, solar 21%, hydro 11%. Red Eléctrica de España (REE) operates the single ES bidding zone, which is electrically a peninsula: only ~6 GW of interconnection to France crosses the Pyrenees, leaving Spain often price-decoupled from Continental Europe. The Iberian Exception, agreed with the EU in 2022, capped gas-fired generation costs and ended in 2023; spot prices on OMIE now reflect normal EU-wide dynamics.

The country's seven nuclear reactors deliver ~20% of supply but are scheduled for phased shutdown between 2027 and 2035. Spain plans to triple solar capacity by 2030, reaching 76 GW, and add 23 GW of new wind.

The 2025 grid blackout — caused by a southern oscillation — accelerated investment in synchronous condensers and battery storage to stabilize the high-renewables system.

FAQ — Spain

How is the electricity price determined?
Day-ahead prices in Spain are auctioned each morning around 13:00 CEST on Nord Pool / EPEX. The cheapest mix of generation that meets demand wins; that price applies for the next 24 hours.
When is electricity cheapest?
Today's average wholesale price in Spain is € 0.0156 /kWh. Cheapest hours typically fall between 00:00–04:00 CEST and around midday on sunny / windy days.
Why is my electricity bill higher than the spot price?
The wholesale spot price you see here is one component. Your retail bill in Spain also adds electricity tax, grid fees, VAT and a supplier markup — total roughly 30–60 % above wholesale.
How accurate is this data?
Source: ENTSO-E Transparency Platform, the EU regulator's data feed. Updated every 10–20 minutes.
Are tomorrow's prices already known?
Tomorrow's day-ahead prices for Spain appear on this page automatically once Nord Pool / EPEX closes the auction around 13:00 CEST each day.
