WHY PROMOTING RENEWABLE ENERGY IN SPAIN? High external energy dependency: – Almost 80% primary energy dependency – 99.5% oil dependence – 97.1% gas dependence High potential for generating energy from renewable sources RES promotion responds to economic, social and environmental strategy RES are key elements to reduce energy dependence
