This study explores the potential of Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology in utilizing Electric Vehicle (EV) batteries for energy storage, aiming to fulfil Spain''s 2030 and 2050 energy goals. The validated Simulink model uses 3.15 million EVs in 2030 and 22.7 million EVs in 2050 as primary energy storage.
It also considers the use of the energy available in the electric vehicle fleet. In addition, this strategy includes ten lines of action and 66 measures covering aspects such as: The participation of storage in the electricity system. Circular economy or energy communities to generate spaces for citizen participation.
Spain''s charging infrastructure coverage needs strengthening to convert electric mobility into a reality. Electric mobility is a key for decarbonisation of transport. Spain''s National Energy and Climate Plan 2021-2030 (NECP) established a target of 5 million electric vehicles (EVs) in Spain by 2030, including cars, vans, motorcycles and buses.
Spain’s government has approved an energy storage strategy that it says will put the country “at the forefront” of what is being done in Europe and help it move towards its 2050 climate neutrality target.
The strategy includes policies to remove administrative barriers to facilitate new projects, the promotion of green hydrogen, the creation of new business models to support areas such as the second life of batteries as well as new researchand development efforts.
Ecological Transition Minister, Teresa Ribera, said storage “allows the perfect integration” of renewables in the system, adding that“Spain is an energetic island, which compels us to have to go ahead to fulfil our commitment to climate neutrality.”
Noting the potential for batteries in self-consumption systems for homes and businesses, the strategy targets the deployment of 400MW of behind-the-meter battery storage by 2030. The government said the deployment of batteries on a large-scale by paring with renewable projects is also “relevant”. The strategy includes efforts to boost thermal storage deployment, renewable hydrogen and pumped hydro plants.
The roadmap follows the recent publication of Spain’s Integrated National Energy and Climate Plan 2021-2030 (PNIEC), which foresees the staggered introduction of battery storage installations into the system to maximise the capacity of non-dispatchable renewable technologies. It is hoped these batteries will have a capacity equivalent to approximately 2.5GW by 2030.
While participants in Spain’s renewable energy auction last month were permitted to include bids with energy storage, the technology didn’t feature. According to consultancy Clean Horizon, this was in part due to a short timeline to submit bids as well as a condition that winning storage plants would be limited to charging from the renewable project they are paired with, excluding the possibility of charging from the grid.
With 19.4GW of renewables capacity to be assigned through Spain’s new auction system by 2025, calls have been made to alter the mechanism to encourage the participation of energy storage in future tenders.
Repsol and IBIL have developed the first recharging station for electric vehicles that incorporates energy storage at a Repsol service station on the N-I highway as it passes through the Basque town of Tolosa, in the province of Gipuzkoa.
For this development Repsol and IBIL have relied on the technological and industrial capacities of the national value chain, through a collaboration with companies such as Irizar, Ingeteam, Cidetec, and Gureak. The latter, a company that employs disabled people from Gipuzkoa, has carried out the entire industrial assembly of the storage module designed by IBIL.
This project, a benchmark for Spanish industry, has also had the support of the Basque Regional Government and the Provincial Council of Gipuzkoa, through the Hazitek and SmartMobility Industry R&D aid programs.
IBIL, a joint venture between Repsol and the Basque Energy Agency (EVE), has more than ten years of experience in the development of recharging technology and solutions. This new technological and industrial project carried out by IBIL has the following benefits:
In this way, the technical difficulties derived from the installation in places where it is ideal to install electric recharging points from a mobility point of view, such as service stations, are solved with an innovative solution that provides autonomy and efficiency to the recharging system while facilitating the integration of local distributed generation and self-consumption of electrical power.
The new recharging facility in Tolosa becomes part of Repsol''s electric recharging network, one of the most important in Spain. It has more than 250 public access points, including 70 fast charging points, most of which are located at service stations, and it positions the multi-energy company as the leader in fast charging at service stations in the country.
The network also includes the first two ultra-fast charging points on the Iberian Peninsula, installed during 2019 at Repsol service stations in Lopidana (Álava) and Ugaldebieta (Bizkaia). These charging points enable recharging of the vehicle batteries that support this technology in five to ten minutes, similar to the time needed for conventional refueling. Each of the four charging points at these installations is capable of delivering up to between 350 kW and 400 kW.
This project is fully aligned with the Energy Storage Strategy of the Ministry for Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge (MITECO) that was approved by the Council of Ministers yesterday and which will support the deployment of renewable energies to guarantee the security, quality, sustainability, and economy of supply.
The user who recharges his electric vehicle at this new charging point will not notice any difference with respect to recharging points without storage since it is an intelligent installation that is integrated into the Repsol network. It also accepts the usual means of payment used by the multi-energy company, such as Waylet.
