El Gobierno crea una vía preferente para aprobar inversiones estratégicas en un mes
Las beneficiarias de ese acceso rápido, otorgado por La Moncloa y Economía, tendrán prioridad en el acceso a las conexiones eléctricas
The Spanish government has already prepared the final text to regulate the Strategic Investments Committee, an innovative body that will allow certain strategic companies to navigate Spain's investment approval process in just one month. Copresided by La Moncloa and the Ministry of Economy, this body will give those companies priority treatment over other projects in permit approval procedures, such as securing access to electricity, which is currently highly contested.
The committee was promised by the Pedro Sánchez administration at the start of its term to foreign investors who have complained about lengthy waits to complete the multitude of authorizations needed to launch operations in Spain. The timing is crucial as access to the already saturated and overburdened electricity grid is a clear advantage, especially since large projects required by the new economy (such as batteries and data centers) demand significant energy.
The text states that this mark is part of "a reinforced governance" at a time when energy is scarce for everyone.
