Spanish households save €10 a month thanks to renewables expansion, report finds
Reported byGuardian Environment ↗·Sourced by Goodlede
Spanish households are saving €10 monthly on electricity bills due to wind and solar capacity installed over the past five years, with typical energy bills now 19% cheaper than they would be if electricity remained coupled to gas prices at 2021 levels, according to analysis by climate thinktank Ember.
The €10/month figure represents savings for a typical household and assumes current renewable capacity; actual savings vary by household and region. The counterfactual comparison (19% higher without renewables) is modeling-based rather than observed pricing.
