Spain added 14 gigawatts of solar and wind capacity to its grid last year.

REE states that 'nearly 10 new GW of installed power capacity of solar photovoltaic and wind power were commissioned' in 2025 (excluding self-consumption), roughly 40% below the 14 GW claimed.
REE's 2025 renewables report confirms ~10 GW of renewable capacity integrated in 2025, of which 8.8 GW was solar PV; wind contributed only ~1.2-1.5 GW, far below what a 14 GW total would require.
Even adding distributed self-consumption capacity, the combined figure remains below 14 GW, so the claimed magnitude is not reached under any reasonable scope.
For context, the previous record year 2024 saw only 7.3 GW of new grid solar+wind (REE), so a jump to 14 GW in 2025 would be implausible.
