4 FAQs about [Successful bid price of battery storage container project in Spain 2030]
Should batteries be a 'pay as bid' model in Spain?
As things stand in Spain, batteries will need a significant boost from capacity prices to fill the gap above wholesale, balancing & ancillary revenue streams. The ‘pay as bid’ structure of the capacity market can help battery assets achieve this.
Why are battery storage options more suitable in Spain?
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.
Can batteries access the balancing market in Spain?
Balancing markets are another key source of battery revenue, but regulatory reform is required for batteries to access the Spanish balancing market. This is likely to happen relatively quickly but creates uncertainty around the level of balancing revenues.
How can battery assets achieve 'pay as bid'?
The ‘pay as bid’ structure of the capacity market can help battery assets achieve this. Batteries may be very flexible, but they are constrained by relatively short duration response (e.g. a 1 to 4 hours discharge range).
