Modification of the remuneration system of regulated activities and the remuneration formula of the special regime facilities, with the intent to avoid the increase of the tariff deficit and that consumers bear these costs through higher electric tolls.

Main modifications:

Change in the updating of all the electric system costs: The methodologies for updating the remunerations, tariffs and premiums that were linked to the general Consumer Price Index (regulated activities such as transportation, distribution or the special regime -mainland costs, renewable energy and cogeneration-), will be updated applying said Index to constant taxes excluding unprocessed food and energy products.

Modification of Royal Decree 661/2007, of May 25: the remuneration through the price market + premium is eliminated (premium = 0 c€/kWh) and the upper and lower limits for all special regime technologies in which these concepts were not equal to zero. The remuneration of all the special regime facilities will be under the regulated tariff formula, unless the titleholder of the facility decides to perceive only the market price, but without a premium.

Before the entry into force of RDL 2/2013, facilities that were under the provisions of Royal Decree 1538/1987 of December 11, which determines the electricity tariff of the service management companies, could perceive a premium if they made a sufficient investment in the facility in order to increase the production capacity of electricity.

With the entry into force of RDL 2/2013, this premium is replaced by a regulated tariff.

Changes in the tariff to be received by certain facilities depending on the technology used

Forget Critical Metals, Electricity is The Real Bottleneck for AI

The U.S. dollar is cracking—and the market knows it. After years of monetary excess, swelling deficits, and policy uncertainty, the world’s reserve currency is losing its grip as a store of value. Capital is fleeing paper promises and piling into hard assets at a pace not seen in decades. Nowhere is this more visible than in precious metals: Gold has surged to above $4,100 per ounce, silver has ripped past $70, and palladium—once written off—has clawed its way back to $1,350. Add an unstable geopolitical backdrop stretching…

Europe Has Entered The Nuclear Golden Age Amid AI Boom

Nuclear power is experiencing a massive revival across Europe, with the regulatory environment shifting decisively in its favor thanks to surging electricity demand from the AI and data center boom, climate goals, volatile global energy markets and the urgent need for structural energy independence. It’s a big wishlist, and nuclear may be the fastest way to realize it. Massive power demand by the tech giants and hyperscalers is exceeding traditional grid capacities in Europe and the United States. AI data centers require huge amounts of baseload…

First Oil Sands Project in 10 Years Starts Production

The first new oil sands project in Alberta since 2014 has started commercial production, aiming for a daily average of 80,000 barrels once it ramps up. The Blackrod project, led by International Petroleum Corp., moved to the first phase of production despite the peak oil demand narrative that has dominated the past decade, especially in Canada. Canadian oil sands have been in the focus of transition attention as especially energy-intensive, meaning emission-intensive, and as a high-cost way of extracting crude oil from the ground. Under activist…

Court Ruling Deals Major Blow to Trump's War on Wind Power

Donald Trump has been battling wind turbines in the court of public opinion and in actual court for over a decade now. Trump has railed about “windmills” repeatedly over the course of his presidential term and campaign trails, calling the technology “so pathetic and so bad” before proudly declaring that no wind power will be approved on his watch. “I can proudly say [...] that we have not approved one windmill since I’ve been in office. And we’re going to keep it that way. My goal is to not let any windmill…
