Key highlights
- Iberdrola España inaugurated a 58 MW / 120 MWh battery at the Campo Arañuelo solar complex in Cáceres.
- The installation uses two LFP (lithium-iron-phosphate) lithium-ion battery units of about 60 MWh each.
- The batteries are paired with Campo Arañuelo I and II solar plants to store generation and supply power at peak demand.
- Iberdrola already operates about 200 MW of battery storage in Spain.
Project overview
Iberdrola España inaugurated Spain's largest energy storage battery at the Campo Arañuelo solar complex in Cáceres, with 58 MW of power and 120 MWh of storage capacity.
Technical configuration
The facility comprises two LFP lithium-ion battery systems of roughly 60 MWh each, connected to the adjacent Campo Arañuelo I and II solar plants.
Operational role
The batteries will store renewable generation from the solar plants and dispatch it during peak demand periods to support grid stability and the integration of new electrification loads.
National context
The project adds to Iberdrola's existing battery footprint in Spain, where the company already operates about 200 MW of storage capacity.
