Quantica grows 80% in PPA contracts and consolidates its national leadership in self-consumption and storage after two years of merger

The self-consumption market in Spain is undergoing a phase of adjustment after years of accelerated growth. According to the UNEF (National Electricity and Energy Administration), new photovoltaic installations decreased by 17% in the first quarter of 2025. Despite this context, Quantica is celebrating its second anniversary following the merger with Hanwha, consolidating its leadership in the self-consumption sector with 40% growth in the industrial sector, where PPA contracts signed during the first half of 2025 increased by 80% .
This model, which allows companies to access solar energy at a stable price and without the need for initial investment, has become a key tool for ensuring the competitiveness and energy independence of Spanish businesses. For this new phase, Javier Becerra , until now director of industrial self-consumption at the engineering firm, has been appointed CEO of Quantica , after having played a key role in the integration of both companies. "These two years have demonstrated that our customer-centric approach and innovation allow us to offer high-value energy solutions that make a difference and have made us a benchmark for the electrification of large-scale industry in Spain," says Becerra.
Since the merger, the company has contributed to promoting an energy model focused on comprehensive distributed generation solutions, with which it now has more than 9,000 installations , more than 320 MW of cumulative and operating capacity , and more than 35,000 customers throughout Spain. The facilities built by Quantica generate 275 GWh annually, while those it manages in Operation and Maintenance generate another 165 GWh annually, together avoiding the emission of 166,400 t of CO2 each year: the equivalent of removing more than 90,000 diesel cars from the road.
Storage, key in the new stage of growthEnergy storage has established itself as one of the essential pillars of Quantica's comprehensive offering. In the residential sector, more than 57% of new installations now include batteries , while in the industrial segment, demand for storage solutions has experienced significant growth. In recent months, requests for battery-based solutions have increased fivefold and those for backup systems twentyfold compared to the first half of 2024, a result of the April blackout and the growing urgency to strengthen energy independence.
"At Quantica, we've helped our clients not only reduce their energy costs, but also ensure business continuity even in adverse conditions. The combination of PPA contracts with storage and backup systems allows us to offer operational resilience that was previously unthinkable. Nothing compares to generating your own energy behind the meter: that's where you gain independence, savings, foresight, and control. Compared to the old model of purchasing all the energy in the system with all its costs and associated uncertainty, this is the path to true competitiveness," says Javier Becerra, CEO of Quantica.
Companies such as Porcelanosa, Frutinter, Grupo Alimentario IAN (Carretilla), Ametller Origen, Exagrés, Rovi, Danosa, and Ilunion already trust Quantica, which stands out for its focus on customer trust and long-term value creation. The company's comprehensive management of complete distributed generation solutions for any customer profile has enabled it to become a leader in its sector.
Hanwha's backing: international strength and vision for the futureBeing part of Hanwha Group , one of the world's largest industrial conglomerates based in South Korea, has been key to scaling Quantica's model in Spain. Recognized as one of Time's 100 most influential companies in the world, Hanwha provides Quantica with first-class financial and technological support.
This international positioning translates into an ambitious roadmap that includes territorial expansion, strengthening the industrial channel, and the development of advanced predictive maintenance solutions, smart energy management, and artificial intelligence. All of this is framed within a vision that puts the customer at the center and combines generation, storage, and optimization to offer autonomy and resilience.
Ready to lead the new era of self-consumption and distributed generationIn a more demanding environment, where, according to UNEF, the sector experienced a 26% reduction in installed capacity in 2024 , remaining at 1,431 MW compared to 1,943 MW the previous year, Quantica has accelerated its commitment to the PPA model and storage , maintaining its growth trajectory and strengthening its position as a leader. Quantica's results for the first quarter of 2025 demonstrate that a strategic approach, combined with technological innovation, allows it not only to adapt to market changes, but also to be the sector leader in self-consumption and distributed generation in Spain .
"Our comprehensive offering and adaptability have established us as leaders in photovoltaic self-consumption in Spain. In an increasingly volatile market, we continue to set the pace with innovative solutions such as PPAs and storage, which allow us to support our clients in their energy transition with future-proofing," Becerra concludes.
