This increase is due to the <strong>many hours of sunshine in May<\/strong> and the <strong>low electricity demand<\/strong> due to the still limited need for air conditioning and moderate tourist influx.<\/p>\n<h2>Investments in solar parks and promotion of self-consumption<\/h2>\n<p>According to the Govern, the increase in clean energy production in the Illes Balears has been driven by the plans of the Conselleria de Empresa, Empleo y Energ\u00eda. These initiatives have accelerated the <strong>energy transition<\/strong> through the <strong>stimulus to investments in solar parks<\/strong> and the <strong>promotion of self-consumption<\/strong> with aids directed to citizens, companies, and public administrations. The Conselleria, along with the Direcci\u00f3n General de Energ\u00eda y Cambio Clim\u00e1tico and the Instituto Balear de la Energ\u00eda (IBE), is implementing <strong>public policies<\/strong> to expand renewable energy consumption, including the promotion of pioneering installations such as shared self-consumption and the bidding for photovoltaic installations in public buildings.<br \/>\nThe IBE plans to put more than <strong>15 shared self-consumption projects into operation in 2024<\/strong> and expects to have at least one installation in each municipality of the Illes Balears by the end of the legislative term. This system allows people and companies without their own space for self-consumption, who do not want to carry out works, or who are renting, to participate in the energy transition. The electricity produced in these installations <strong>is distributed among the participants according to their assigned percentage<\/strong>, allowing them to save on their electricity bill and <strong>reduce the carbon footprint<\/strong> of their homes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In May, the Illes Balears achieved a record in the <a href=\"https:\/\/mallorcaglobalmag.es\/en\/solar-energy-baleares\/\"> [&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":107744,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1520,1522],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-107758","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-environment","category-science-and-technology"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.2 -
