V Cumbre de Autoconsumo

On-site
Date
24 Apr 2025
Schedule
09:00 - 18:00
Location
Madrid

It has been more than 5 years since the approval of RD 244/2019 on self-consumption, which is currently in force. The sector has evolved since then and needs new measures and incentives to promote this clean way of consuming energy. The development of collective self-consumption and the entry of new agents such as storage and energy communities will allow an increase in installed capacity.

Meet the leaders of the sector: experts in self-consumption will share their knowledge, institutional representatives and decision-makers will address the most important regulatory issues, debates and presentations on the current situation of self-consumption.

Networking: the event will be the perfect space to make key connections, all professionals in the value chain: suppliers, investors and other players in the energy market will meet at the Summit.

What topics will be addressed in this fifth edition?

  • Quality and safety of self-consumption installations
  • What obstacles are encountered in the commissioning of self-consumption installations? Improvements in the process of processing collective self-consumption
  • Electrification and CAEs
  • Behind-the-meter storage
  • The current situation of the regulation of self-consumption: obsolete regulations? Need for new regulatory proposals?
  • New self-consumption models, financing, aid and subsidies

08:30h - 09:00h Registration of attendees

 

09:00h - 09:20h Opening ceremony

Rafael Benjumea, President, Spanish Photovoltaic Union (Unión Española Fotovoltaica)

Miguel Rodrigo, Managing Director, IDAE 

 

09:20h - 10:10h What obstacles are encountered in the commissioning of self-consumption installations? What measures can be taken to improve the processing of collective self-consumption?

The processing of self-consumption is slightly different depending on the power of the installation or the modality, and collective self-consumption has yet to take off. It is therefore necessary to identify the difficulties that still exist today in these processes and to discuss the systems of the different distributors.

Moderator: Marta Garijo, EFE

María González, Head of Area in the Retail Market Unit of the Sub-Directorate for Electrical Energy, National Commission for Markets and Competition

Héctor Pastor, Coordinator of the Self-consumption and Energy Communities area, Ecooo Energía Ciudadana

Shalina Chandnani, Head of Distributed Generation Projects, Repsol

Marta Castro, Director of Regulation, AELEC

Verónica Beltrán, Head of Agent Management and Integration, UFD

*Question time

 

10:10h - 10:20h Manual of good practices in fire safety in self-consumption photovoltaic installations on roofs - Irene Real, DSelf-consumption Director, Unión Española Fotovoltaica

10:20h - 11:10h How to achieve maximum quality and safety in self-consumption installations?

The growing installed power in self-consumption requires special attention in the design of photovoltaic plants, in the choice of their elements, as well as in the periodic maintenance of the installations, without forgetting the personnel who work in both assembly and revision. It is therefore necessary to highlight good practices in terms of quality and safety in self-consumption installations.

Moderator: Sara Portillo, Material Eléctrico

José Manuel Fernández, Spokesperson, Alianza S2E

Héctor Rodríguez, PV Market Manager, SMA Ibérica Tecnología Solar

Javier Fernández-Font, General Manager, Alusín Solar

Franc Comino, General Manager, Sonnen

*Question Time

 

11:15h - 11:45h Coffee break

 

11:50h - 12:40h How can we reach the 19 GW of self-consumption set by the PNIEC? Should industrial self-consumption be promoted?

In order to achieve the 19 GW of self-consumption set by the PNIEC, we must install around 2.2 GB per year in the remaining 5 years until 2030. We must reach this figure, but the question is, how are we going to achieve it? Industrial self-consumption is one of the ways that we must promote.

Moderator: José Pedrosa, PV Magazine

Jaume Margarit, Head of the Energy Planning Division, ICAEN

Roberto Giner, CEO, Octopus Energy

Pablo Gómez, Managing Director, Coagener

José María Ruiz, Head of Industrial Distributed Generation, Naturgy

*Question time

 

12:40h - 13:30h Can self-consumption accelerate electrification and how should CAEs be encouraged?

The level of electrification of final consumption is not yet sufficient, so it is necessary to develop mechanisms that can boost it, such as the CAEs system, which promotes the integration of various vectors such as heat pumps with self-consumption and storage.

Moderator: Antonio Quillis, OKGREEN

Mar Blázquez, Deputy Assistant Director for Energy Efficiency and Access, Ministry for Ecological Transition and Demographic Challenge

Raquel Pastor, Director General of Industry, Energy and Mines, Regional Government of Extremadura 

Ginés García, President, A3E

Marta San Román, Director General, AFEC 

Gonzalo Ubieto, Commercial Director, Ampere Energy

*Question time

 

13: 35h - 14:45h - Networking lunch

 

14:50h - 15:00h Presentation of the Self-consumption Platform - Rosalía Rivas, Red Eléctrica

 

15:00h - 15:55h Does self-consumption have a future without storage behind the meter? Should storage be included in the regulation of self-consumption?

Storage is an agent of the electricity sector that is increasingly present in self-consumption installations. This is why we must ask ourselves: should storage be included in the regulation of self-consumption, taking advantage of the benefits of these two technologies?

Moderator: Borja Pérez, Academia de la Energía Solar

Rosalía Rivas, Head of System Operation Models, Red Eléctrica

Mariano Soria, General Manager, Turbo Energy Solar Innovation

Guillermo Donézar, Head of Distribution Southern Europe, Sungrow

Jesús Heras, Technical Director, Wattkraft

*Question time

 

15:55h - 16:50h What is the current situation of the regulation of self-consumption, is it obsolete and are new regulatory proposals needed?

The sector expects the first draft of the new royal decree on self-consumption in 2025, which is intended to include measures that favour collective self-consumption, increase the threshold for simplified processing and exemption from permits, as well as other proposals that adapt the regulations to the current situation of the sector.

Moderator: Antonio Barredo, Energías Renovables

Carlos Redondo, Deputy Director General for Electrical Energy, Ministry for Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge

Helena Badger, Legal Director, Acciona Homes and SMEs

Sabrina Lavado, Senior Associate Lawyer, Verdia Legal

Carolina Coll, Spokesperson, member of the Governing Council and the Collective Energy Team, Som Energía

Javier Bescós, Regulatory and Innovation Director, Fenie Energía

*Question time

 

16:50h - 17:00h EBAFLEX Study - David Ribó, Polytechnic University of Valencia

 

17:00h - 17:50h What are the new business and financing models? Will there be new subsidies and grants?

The end of the Next Generation subsidies and other subsidies dedicated to self-consumption, forces the sector to be creative and formulate new ways of sharing energy. This is why new business models and measures are needed to incentivise the variability of the electricity tariff to make the installation of self-consumption more attractive.

Moderator: Rubén Esteller, El Economista

Manuel Larrasa, Secretary General for Energy, Junta de Andalucía

Ángel Giménez, Head of Energy & Sustainability, BBVA

Raquel Paule, representative, Alliance for Self-consumption
