Santiago de Compostela, 4 November 2026
The Regional Minister for Economy and Industry, María Jesús Lorenzana, today stressed the importance of more flexible electricity infrastructure planning so that new industrial demand does not have to wait years for plans to be updated.
Responding to an oral question in a plenary session of Parliament, Lorenzana noted that this flexibility is important so that ‘when a project comes forward, it does not have to wait for the next planning cycle; instead, plans can be adapted to the needs of industry and the region’. She also called for electricity infrastructure planning to keep pace with the development of industrial land in each autonomous community.
