The Oficina para la Transición Energética completed 2025 with a record level of activity, registering more than 18,600 consultations across the Balearic Islands. This represents a 70% increase compared to 2024 and significantly exceeds the annual target of 15,000 users.
The service, promoted by the Instituto Balear de la Energía, focused much of its work on advising citizens and businesses on energy-related grants, while also providing technical support to local councils.
December was the busiest month of the year, with 977 in-person consultations, complemented by 675 interactions via social media and 173 enquiries through the website. Most face-to-face requests were linked to grant applications, file status enquiries and general information on available financial support.
Key areas of interest included the Melib Network, applications for the Social Bonus, guidance on electricity and gas bills, shared self-consumption initiatives promoted by the IBE, and renewable energy generation projects.
