Image: Wikicommons. Portugal is looking to support at least 500MW of energy storage capacity by the end of 2025 via grant support. The country's Ministry of Environment and Energy has launched a competition for €99.75 million (US$107 million) for grid-scale energy storage projects at the transmission and distributed-scale.
This included six projects from Spain's Iberdrola, which secured nearly EUR 20 million in public funding. Portugal's Ministry of Energy has announced that it has allocated EUR 100 million ($104.2 million) to 43 energy storage projects which should be installed by the end of 2025.
A total of 43 projects were selected from 79 applications in Portugal's 2025 energy storage procurement. This included six projects from Spain's Iberdrola, which secured nearly EUR 20 million in public funding.
This initiative aims to enhance the flexibility and stability of Portugal's power supply system amid its record-breaking solar electricity production. On July 31, the ministry announced the allocation of €99.75 million through a call for tenders to install energy storage projects totaling 500 MW.
