Resumen
Electricity generation from renewable sources is one of the manifestations of the energy
transition in Spain that has greatest impact in spatial and landscape terms. Despite this, the
change towards a sustainable electricity production model, which allows more people to
access energy and limits dependence on fossil fuels, is being marred by a lack of planning,
social debate and citizen participation. This chapter analyses the technical dimensions of the
change in the production model and its spatial imprint, and the different ways in which
Spanish geographers have approached this question. It concludes with some reflections on
the enormous challenge facing our discipline today, namely to demonstrate its capacity to
provide useful responses to one of the problems of most interest to society.
