Vidrala, the leading glass container manufacturer, has started the commissioning of its Castellar Vidrio photovoltaic plant with the energization of the new installations at the factory located in Castellar del Vallés, Barcelona. In this way, Vidrala completes the construction project of its photovoltaic self-consumption plant that began in March.
MES Barcelona also installs photovoltaic panels for residents’ associations. The funders of the photovoltaic installation sell the energy to the building’s owners, and at the end of the energy sale contract, ownership of the panels is transferred to the building owners at zero cost.
In this way, Vidrala completes the construction project of its photovoltaic self-consumption plant that began in March. The new photovoltaic plant at Castellar Vidrio has the capacity to produce approximately 8,000 MWh of energy per year.
The new photovoltaic plant at Castellar Vidrio has the capacity to produce approximately 8,000 MWh of energy per year. This will mean the reduction of more than 2,000 tons of CO2 emissions into the atmosphere per year. The new plant has more than 1,900 photovoltaic modules with a power of up to 6 MWp.
The majority of Spain's solar energy comes from vast farms in rural areas where land is inexpensive, but urban centers are far away. The current trend is to expand power in cities, where it is most needed.

The global industrial and commercial energy storage market is experiencing explosive growth, with demand increasing by over 250% in the past two years. Containerized energy storage solutions now account for approximately 45% of all new commercial and industrial storage deployments worldwide. North America leads with 42% market share, driven by corporate sustainability initiatives and tax incentives that reduce total project costs by 18-28%. Europe follows closely with 35% market share, where standardized industrial storage designs have cut installation timelines by 65% compared to traditional built-in-place systems. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 50% CAGR, with manufacturing scale reducing system prices by 20% annually. Emerging markets in Africa and Latin America are adopting industrial storage solutions for peak shaving and backup power, with typical payback periods of 2-4 years. Major commercial projects now deploy clusters of 15+ systems creating storage networks with 80+MWh capacity at costs below $270/kWh for large-scale industrial applications.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving industrial energy storage performance while reducing costs. Next-generation battery management systems maintain optimal operating conditions with 45% less energy consumption, extending battery lifespan to 20+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $85/kWh to $40/kWh since 2023. Smart integration features now allow multiple industrial systems to operate as coordinated energy networks, increasing cost savings by 30% through peak shaving and demand charge management. Safety innovations including multi-stage fire suppression and thermal runaway prevention systems have reduced insurance premiums by 35% for industrial storage projects. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple system additions at just $200/kWh for incremental capacity. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with commercial and industrial projects typically achieving payback in 3-5 years depending on local electricity rates and incentive programs. Recent pricing trends show standard industrial systems (1-2MWh) starting at $330,000 and large-scale systems (3-6MWh) from $600,000, with volume discounts available for enterprise orders.
