Source: data from ENTSO-E Transparency Platform dated 24/1/2024. These data are based on the criteria of Regulation (EU) No 543/2013, encompassing units with an installed power capacity equal to or greater than 1 MW, and therefore differ from the data used for the specific case of Spain at the national level, which consider the total installed power capacity.
