The Balearic Islands have increased their installed renewable energy capacity by 10.1% in 2025, rising from a total of 541 MW to 596 MW. This increase allows for a power map of the Islands where almost a quarter (24.4%) comes from renewable sources, the vast majority of which (91.8%) is renewable.

In the coming days, the Balearic Government will extend protective measures against avian flu to all municipalities in the islands, but will not confine the birds. Currently, control measures only affect municipalities considered high-risk areas, such as Santa Margalida, Muro, Sa Pobla, Pollença, and Alcúdia, and those considered areas of special surveillance, such as Felanitx, Campos, Formentera, Ibiza, San José de Sa Atalaya, Santa Eulalia del Río, Maó, and Es Mercadal. This Thursday, the Spanish Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (MAPA) ordered the confinement of all poultry in the country, but the ministerial order states that the autonomous communities can adjust the measures to adapt them to the specific circumstances of their farms. The Directorate General of Agriculture has decided to maintain the previously announced protective measures that will allow, as established by state regulations, "the keeping of poultry outdoors, by placing, if possible, bird netting or any other device that prevents the entry of wild birds, and in facilities or shelters that prevent the arrival of wild birds and avoid their contact with the food or water intended for the poultry." Although avian flu has not yet reached the Balearic Islands, the Director General of Agriculture, Livestock and Rural Development, Fernando Fernández, has warned that "the danger is real" and added that there is "very strong" concern about this disease reaching the Islands. Therefore, he reiterated that the measures adopted by the Government "can be maintained as long as there is responsible behavior on the part of farm owners." Similarly, he warned that if the Directorate General becomes aware of widespread non-compliance with the precautions, "more drastic measures will be adopted, including, if necessary, lockdowns." Regarding small-scale poultry farms, Fernández indicated that they are obligated to keep their waterers and feeders in protected locations and that these farms are best suited to establish enclosed feeding stations. However, the Director General pointed out that 70 percent of poultry farms in the Balearic Islands are for personal consumption, making it "practically impossible to enforce this measure with this level of dispersion." Therefore, he expressed his confidence that owners will comply with the measures, protect their hens, and "look out for their own well-being and that of their neighbors." Furthermore, the Directorate General, together with its technical services, has determined that the next resolution will include more intensive inspections of commercial farms to ensure that biosecurity measures are being implemented.
