This episode explores why Spain and Portugal are often called an “energy island,” with limited connections to the rest of Europe. We look at how this setup creates both resilience and risk—supporting renewable integration and unique price controls while also leaving the region exposed during major outages. We also discuss the challenges of expanding interconnections and the growing role of storage technologies in securing a sustainable energy future.
