Renewable energies are obtained from inexhaustible natural sources, generating electricity without contributing to global warming. Energy self-consumption is especially interesting due to the high efficiency levels and savings attained.
Badajoz hosted the kick-off meeting of this initiative, co-funded by the Interreg Spain–Portugal (POCTEP) programme and coordinated by AGENEX
The study, carried out within the framework of the UNIFHY project, highlights the region’s potential to become a leading player in this sector while stressing the need for planning, infrastructure development, and regulatory stability
The project, with the participation of AGENEX providing technical assistance to the Government of Extremadura, has been selected in FEDARENE’s annual publication 'Sustainable Regions in Action 2026', among the best practices of energy agencies of Europe.
The city of Kilkenny hosted the second interregional event of the UNIFHY project, led by the Extremadura Energy Agency and involving partners from five other European countries.
The aim of the session was to identify the needs of public administrations in promoting building renovation, in order to design a tailored advisory office through the FACILITA project
AGENEX attends the meeting alongside the Extremadura Energy Cluster to learn about initiatives being implemented by other European regions in the field of industrial decarbonization
Representatives from six European countries attended in Badajoz the first in-person meeting of the UNIFHY project, led by AGENEX, with the participation of several entities from Extremadura.
Several entities from Extremadura will participate in the event to present the research and innovation projects they are developing around renewable gases
On February 1, the European Investment Bank (EIB) organized in Madrid the information day of the ELENA subsidy mechanism, in which the Extremadura Energy Agency (AGENEX) has been invited to explain the experience carried out in Extremadura.
Extremadura reached an electrical energy production of 26,251 GWh in 2022, which is 6.33% more than in the previous year, a new all-time high, and exceeding regional demand by 561%. The production of renewable origin accounts for 217 percent of the demand. Only with photovoltaic energy is 148% of the regional demand reached.
Both projects are led by Agenex, and deal with important issues in our region such as consumption monitoring in buildings and energy communities.
The Final Conference of the project brought together in Rome the European partners and main actors who exposed the enormous potential of the sector for the generation of renewable energy and its use in the different production systems.
In 2022, the record for installed megawatts and investment was broken again and more than 5,000 self-consumption installations were legalized. A new regulation was also approved to regulate the use of lithium and another that declares the production of hydrogen to be of general interest.
The Agenex Assembly has authorized the signing of two projects, SahreRES and MonitorEE, for the active participation of the Energy Communities in the energy system and the monitoring of the energy rehabilitation of existing buildings and their performance.
President of the region advances that 2,500 direct jobs would be created, 20,000 during construction, and an investment of 10,000 million euros.
For the third year in a row, it exceeds the annual goal of putting around 1,000 new MW into service. With 5,165 MW in operation, it continues to be the first region in terms of installed power.
