Spain’s Council of Ministers has approved a royal decree to promote energy storage, accelerate electrification, and tighten oversight of the national grid, says the Ministry for the Ecological Transition and Demographic Challenge (MITECO).

The regulation, which revives provisions from the “Anti-Blackout Decree” that failed to pass in July, sets an energy storage target of 22.5 GW by 2030.
