The main source of greenhouse gas emissions from electricity generation in Spain are combined cycle power plants, having released 18 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (MtCO₂e) in 2023. This was followed by cogeneration, with an additional 6.32 MtCO₂e. Altogether combined cycle power plants account for over half of Spain's electricity-related emissions.
