Here’s the translation to American English:
Entrix, the innovative technology company in the energy storage sector, has decided to establish itself in Spain and Portugal, appointing Juan Galiardo, former General Director of Uber in Spain, as the new Regional Manager for Iberia. Galiardo will be responsible for directing the company’s strategy in the Iberian Peninsula, aiming to enhance its growth in this key region.
The arrival of Entrix comes at a time of rapid evolution in the Spanish energy market, which currently boasts an impressive portfolio of 36 GW of projects. Of this total, over 20 GW already have an established connection point, and more than 5 GW are in the public information phase, with a notable increase of 3.5 GW in the last quarter. In this sense, the company consolidates its role as a technology partner for developers, infrastructure funds, and utilities looking to hybridize renewable assets and maximize the performance of their storage projects.
Energy storage is recognized as a key opportunity within the photovoltaic industry, not only for its potential profitability but also for its substantial contribution to the stability of the electrical system. This stability is essential to ensure a reliable supply and to meet the country’s ambitious decarbonization goals.
Entrix already has a strong track record in Germany, where it operates 52 assets, and is also present in other European countries such as Poland and Italy. With the opening of new offices in Munich, Warsaw, Milan, and Madrid, the company reaffirms its commitment to the Iberian region.
Juan Galiardo emphasized that storage has become “the missing piece to ensure the competitiveness of renewables.” Entrix’s technology, which is based on a sophisticated artificial intelligence algorithm, allows for real-time optimization of the operation of flexible assets, thus maximizing their profitability in wholesale and ancillary service markets. This comprehensive approach includes initial advisory on hybridization choices, asset sizing, and guarantee parameters.
Finally, the company actively engages in the Spanish energy ecosystem, participating in relevant associations such as the Spanish Photovoltaic Union (UNEF) and the Spanish Association of Batteries and Energy Storage (AEPIBAL), reaffirming its commitment to the development of the sector in the region.
