Installed capacity

All other renewables proceeding from very different sources and headed by biomass represented 1.1% of the installed capacity in Spain at the end of 2021

This section collects aggregate information on a group of renewable technologies of very diverse origin that together represent the 1.9% of renewable power and the 1.1% of total installed capacity in Spain at the end of 2021. It can be divided into four blocks: biomass and biogas (1,088 MW), renewable waste identified as 50% of solid urban waste (170 MW), wind-pumped hydro power, which is the plant installed on the island of El Hierro (11 MW) and hydroelectric power from the sea of 5 MW.

It should be noted that the growth of said energy aggregate has been stable for over a decade, going from 491 MW of power in 2004 to 1,274 MW in 2021.

Annual growth of the installed capacity of other renewables

By autonomous communities, Andalucía with 451 MW is clearly the one with the most installed capacity and accounts for more than 35% of all the installed capacity of this group of renewables. It is followed, in this order, by Castilla-La Mancha with 110 MW, and Castilla y León with 101 MW.
