Edison Next chooses Ibiza as an energy laboratory for its new pilot project.
The Edison Next Spain delegation in Ibiza has become an energy innovation laboratory thanks to a new pilot project that integrates photovoltaic generation, lithium-ion battery storage, and control systems based on artificial intelligence. All of this, with the aim of optimizing self-consumption, reducing energy costs, and moving towards a more efficient and resilient model.
The system combines a 43 kWp solar installation with a 10 kW / 20.7 kWh lithium-ion (LFP) battery, designed to store energy generated during peak sunlight hours and release it when electricity demand is highest. Thanks to this energy arbitrage strategy that balances generation, storage, and consumption, the delegation has been able to maximize its self-consumption, reduce demand peaks, and improve the overall efficiency of the building.
One of the most innovative aspects of the initiative is its intelligent management architecture, developed in collaboration with the Spanish startup Bamboo Energy. Its digital platform, integrated with Edison Next’s Building Management System (BMS), uses artificial intelligence algorithms to analyze the electricity market in real time and adapt the facility’s energy consumption. In this way, the system can, for example, shift battery charging or HVAC operation to the cheapest hours of the day, significantly reducing energy costs and associated emissions.
The software also makes it possible to forecast demand and optimize equipment operation, enabling participation in future flexibility services for the electricity system. “This project has shown us how digitalization, storage, and artificial intelligence could transform the way we consume and produce energy. Without a doubt, it represents an important step towards a more decentralized, intelligent, and sustainable energy model,” says the technical team at Edison Next Spain.
Thanks to this technology, the Ibiza delegation has become an energetically active space that not only consumes more efficiently but is also prepared to demonstrate how to provide stability to the grid and generate new economic savings.
The Ibiza pilot project also marks the beginning of the collaboration between Edison Next and Bamboo Energy, an alliance that both companies plan to expand with the aim of replicating this model in industrial, tertiary, and municipal environments.
With more than 2,450 GWh managed annually, 2,000 optimized buildings, and a constant commitment to technological innovation, Edison Next is consolidating its role as a benchmark in energy efficiency, digitalization, and sustainability in our country. The company emphasizes that successes like that of its Ibiza delegation “reflect our commitment to driving solutions that, in addition to saving energy, promote a structural change in the way we understand energy management.”.
