Spain submitted its recovery and resilience plan in April 2021 to the European Commission which was approved in July 2021. Within the third pillar of the plan, one component relates to the decarbonisation of the energy sector notably the support of workers whose employment might be adversely affected by the energy transition. The pillar is composed of the following strategies:

Component 7: Development and inclusion of renewable energies: EUR 3 165 million (2021-2023)

Component 8: Electrical infrastructure, promotion of smart grids and deployment of storage facilities: EUR 1 365 million (2021-2023)

Component 9: Roadmap for the integration of renewable hydrogen: EUR 1 555 million (2021-2023)

Component 10: Just transition strategy: EUR 300 million (2021-2023).

An addendum to this recovery and resilience plan was approved in 2023, adding a new strategy to the above: Component 31. REPowerEU (2023-2026) EUR 6916 million. The objectives of this component include improving energy infrastructures.

After the publication of the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan, Spain has approved four Calls for funding proposals related to Component 8, which have the next budget:

Innovative energy storage R&D projects: 50 M€

Co-located energy storage with power generation facilities from renewable energy sources: 150 M€

Innovative projects for Stand Alone electrical storage and thermal storage: 180 M€

Innovative reversible pumped storage projects: 100 M€

New Business Models for the Energy Transition: 156 M€

The U.S. Army Just Called China’s Bluff in the Rare Earth War

Just recently, in a span of about six weeks, one impressive company was selected by the U.S. Army to build and operate rare earth processing facilities on an American military base…the first time the Army has ever done this. That same company closed $100 million in institutional financing, giving it a war chest of roughly $130 million. It was also formally added to the Russell 3000 Index. And it locked in MOU’s for feedstock agreements covering billions of tonnes of rare earth-bearing material from sources across Wyoming, Appalachia…

Oil Prices Ignore the Warning Signs in Physical Markets

Oil price movements since the start of March this year have become the topic of dozens of discussions. Many have been puzzled by futures prices and why they haven’t gone through the roof given the severe disruption in Middle Eastern supply. It appears the reason is sheer optimism and a bet on market adaptability. However, there is a problem with that. Adaptability has limits. Many commentators like to compare the current oil price—and supply—situation to 2022, when Russia’s incursion into eastern Ukraine prompted an actual…

The World’s Largest Sand Battery Is Now Online

Modern power grids require a constant, real-time balance between supply and consumption. Unfortunately, the integration of wind and solar energy makes power grids unstable due to the intermittent nature of renewable energy generation. To prevent localized grid blackouts or harmful voltage spikes, utilities are increasingly pairing renewables with battery storage and/or rapid-response natural gas plants to smooth out fluctuating supply. However, Finland has now come up with a rather eccentric method to store excess renewable energy and release it…

Refined Fuels, Not Crude, Are Driving the Oil Market Crunch

Oil prices have just come off a fresh two-month high as the crude oil market has tumbled this week amid signals of de-escalation in the U.S.-Iran conflict. Despite the slump in crude prices and the extreme volatility in the past five months, the refined product market continues to tighten with refining margins at record highs because the supply of petroleum products is much tighter than crude supply. Refining margins held at record highs even as crude oil prices soared last week to $100 per barrel. That’s because global gasoline, diesel,…
