Good articles for explaining Spain

Google Translate

I read your articles (and the leader) about Spain and the government's aim for 20,000 MW of wind energy and the improved attitude of grid operator REE in the October issue. They were really well written, accurate and explain the actual situation in Spain.

They have helped me a lot in explaining the issues to our mother company in Germany. Thanks to your reporting they have a much better understanding of what's special about Spanish wind energy development and what is going on right now when it comes to grid connection in Spain. So congratulations for these very useful articles.
