REE vs REN TSOs Grid Connection Permits – Portugal should study all of the Direct Agreements – Termos de Referência asap and implement the same process Termos de Referência for Wind Energy
The purpose of this document is to compare the Spanish and Portuguese TSOs (REE and REN) Grid Connection Permits grants, already studied and with Connection Costs issued, and Connection requests waiting for Studies and respective TRC (Titulo de Reserva de Capacidade) in PT and (Acceso y Conexion) in ES.
- Solar PV
- Spain has a Total of 102,5 GW of Solar PV projects. If we think about the dimension of PT vs ES, being 1/5 of the dimension, Portugal should have in these conditions 20,5 GW (being somewhat equivalent to the shortlist of the 78 projects and 17 GW of the Portuguese TSO Direct Agreement (TERMOS DE REFERENCIA).
- CONCLUSION: it is extremely urgent to proceed with all of the studies of the TSO REN Direct Agreements within the shortest time possible
- Wind Energy
- Spain has a Total of 41,4 GW of Wind projects. If we think about the dimension of PT vs ES, being 1/5 of the dimension, Portugal should have in these conditions 10,4 GW.
- CONCLUSION: it is urgent to proceed with a Termos de Reference process, only for Wind, in the shortest time possible
