Spain's technical curtailment crunch: how the next wave of solar growth will impact trends
*Please note that this report only includes an Excel data file if this is indicated in "What's included" below
Report summary
Over the last few years renewable assets in Spain have faced a new revenue risk: technical curtailment. And the risk is only growing – Spain will add over 9 GW of solar PV by the end of 2026, with a further 7 GW coming online in 2027–2028. Uncompensated curtailment remains material in 2026, with 4% of renewable output curtailed at a market level. But this is a local problem – congested nodes are curtailing up to 30% of their available renewable energy, with no compensation for turn down.
