New structures would certainly need to cover at least 30 percent of their gross roof covering location, as well as existing buildings a minimum of 30 percent of their internet roof location with solar systems.

Lithium-ion battery cells have actually until now been generated according to standard formats and also in rigid systems. According to German Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), flexibly versatile cells are necessary to ensure that batteries - as an example for electromobility - can be fitted precisely even in intricate rooms and also can save a lot more energy.

Spain needs to limit the size of new photovoltaic projects and also much better disperse the plants in the country. Rather, smaller sized projects of one to ten megawatts ought to be supported, which would then also lie closer to the customers, demands the Spanish National Association of Solar Power Producers ANPIER (Asociación Nacional de Productores de Energía Fotovoltaica).

Iberdrola is proceeding with initiatives to establish three solar farms in Spain's Valencia region that will certainly have an integrated capability of 450MW and require a financial investment of more than EUR235 million (US$ 284 million).
