The European Commission approves Spain's €9 billion electricity supply security scheme, running for ten years from May 2026 at around nine hundred million euros per year. The market-wide capacity mechanism covers generation, energy storage, and demand response projects, selected through competitive auctions. Spain commits to opening the scheme to other interconnected European Union member states. The approval comes as Spain, one of Europe's most renewable-rich electricity systems, seeks to guarantee supply reliability as variable wind and solar generation continues to grow.
