The Interregional Alliance of Energy Clusters is born in Spain

  • Creation of an alliance that brings together nine energy clusters from various autonomous communities.
  • Joint representation of 917 entities including companies, technology centers and universities.
  • Focus on innovation, R&D&I and a unified voice before national and European institutions.
  • The goal is a just, cohesive, and job-creating energy transition across the country.

Interregional alliance of energy clusters

At an event held in Madrid during the Genera trade fair, the creation of the Interregional Alliance of Energy Clusters, a cooperation platform that brings together nine sectoral organizations from different autonomous communities.

The new structure is designed to coordinate efforts, promote innovation, and move towards a a just, orderly and cohesive energy transition throughout the territory, integrating 917 entities between companies, technology centers, universities, administrations and professional associations.

What is the alliance and why was it formed?

Presentation of the energy cluster alliance

The central purpose is beef up Cooperation between territories, sharing knowledge, technical capabilities and experiences to accelerate the deployment of sustainable and competitive energy solutions.

Among its lines of work are the promotion of joint projects of R&D&I at the national level and active participation in European programs linked to the double green and digital transition.

The platform will act as a common voice for innovative energy ecosystem before administrations and organizations, facilitating more effective dialogue and unified representation of the sector.

It will also promote the public-private cooperation and will align its initiatives with energy and cohesion policies, ensuring that progress translates into employment, value and well-being in a balanced way across all communities.

Who are its members and its representative scope

The alliance begins with the clusters of Andalusia (CLANER), Aragon (Fill), Balearic Islands (TEIB), Castile and León (CYLSOLAR), Catalonia (CEEC), Valencian Community, Extremadura, Galicia (Cluergal) y Navarra (Enercluster), with openness to new regional additions.

Together they represent 917 organizations linked to the Spanish energy sector, covering the value chain from research and technological development to industrial implementation and the provision of services.

The management of several clusters emphasizes the importance of join forces to face the great challenges of the energy transition with greater solidity and scale, facilitating broader initiatives that strengthen business competitiveness and international positioning.

Next steps and opportunities

Energy cluster alliance signed

The signing of the founding document, which took place during the Genera trade fair, establishes a stable collaborative space with the capacity to mobilize leading projects and to participate in a coordinated manner in national and European calls for proposals.

Immediate priorities include enhancing the exchange of capabilities between companies and technology centers, consolidate interregional synergies and accelerate initiatives aligned with climate and development goals digitization of the energy system.

Within this framework, the alliance aims to strengthen the competitiveness of the industrial fabric, promote innovation, and support the country in its progress towards a model more sustainable, resilient and balanced between territories.

The coordinated drive of these nine clusters puts Spain in a better position to seize opportunities from the energy transition, scale solutions, and represent with a single voice the interests of the sector before the institutions.
