Boosting futures markets and reducing the role of the spot market would make electricity prices more stable and guarantee the investment needed in renewable energy to meet 2030 targets.
A PwC report published by the Naturgy Foundation analyses the best options for reforming wholesale electricity markets to address the mass integration of renewable energy while guaranteeing that consumers receive a quality service.
The document authors also support giving greater power to the system’s adjustment services, which would make it more flexible and allow for renewable technology, storage and energy demand management.

Cogeneration plants need renewal plan to maintain their contribution to decarbonisation targets and industry competitiveness
A study claims that renewal plans are needed for existing cogeneration plants, which prevent around four million tonnes of CO2 emissions per year.
These plants are key to maintaining energy efficiency in processes and represent a major factor in company competitiveness.
Over 80% of the energy produced by these facilities is transformed through natural gas, the use of which leads to a significant emissions reduction.
