ABSTRACT
On the day of the 2007 Summer Solstice, a group of Catalan NGOs made public a study on 100 per cent renewable electricity supply for Catalonia (Doleschek et al, 2007), the north-eastern region of Spain. The authors of the study showed that to switch the present electricity supply system in Catalonia to a renewable one would be within reach if appropriate policies were implemented. Also, some time before, Greenpeace Spain had undertaken a similar study for Spain as a whole (Greenpeace Spain, 2007).
