Abstract
Institutions & Energy Policy
The Ministry of Ecological Transition (MITECO) coordinates the energy policy through the State Secretariat for Energy. It also covers the environmental and climate policy. An Inter-Ministerial Commission on Climate Change and Ecological Transition attached to MITECO was created in 2018 to coordinate decision-making related to climate change and energy.
Energy Companies
Electricity:
There are 3 large electricity companies: Iberdrola (Qatar Investment Authority 8.69%, Blackrock 5.25%, Norges Bank 3.43%), Endesa (Enel 70%), and Naturgy (former Gas Natural Fenosa, Caixa 24.8%, Rioja 20.7%, infrastructure fund GIP 20.6%, and Sonatrach 4.1%).
Energy Supply
Oil:
Oil production is very low (40 kt in 2019). Crude oil imports increased by 2.7%/year from 2010 to 2018 and then dipped by 1.1% in 2019 to 69 Mt. Four suppliers accounted for 56% of crude imports in 2019: Nigeria (17%), Mexico (14%), Libya (13%), and Saudi Arabia (12%).
Energy Prices
Electricity:
Residential electricity prices have doubled since 2002 with an acceleration between 2007 and 2012 (+10%/year), explained by the rising weight of feed-in tariffs and attempts by electricity companies to recoup their tariff deficit.
Energy Consumption
In 2019, total consumption per capita was 2.6 toe (15% lower than the EU average), including 5 150 kWh of electricity (7% below the EU average).

Issues & Prospects
According to the baseline scenario presented in the NECP, primary energy consumption would increase marginally (+0.2%/year) between 2015 and 2030, reaching 127 Mtoe in 2030, while final energy consumption would grow slightly faster, by 0.6%/year, to 93 Mtoe in 2030.
