Spanish public-service broadcaster RTVE is looking to begin DAB+ broadcasts in early 2024. The move comes as the country marks 100 years of regular broadcasting in Spain. Although Spain did launch DAB services in Madrid and Barcelona in the 1990s, the technology was never widely implemented. However, in recent years, the number of DAB+ receivers in Spanish cars as grown substantially thanks to Europe-wide regulations requiring new automobiles to incorporate the technology. Speaking on a panel at Telcom 2023 in Madrid, ?ngel García Castillejo, director of audiovisual policies, public and international service, for the Corporación de Radio y Televisión Espa?ola, said, “We estimate that, by spring next year, there will be three million DAB+ receivers on wheels in our country,” according to a report by Gorka Zumeta. For its rollout, RTVE plans to work with telecom company Cellnex as its technology partner.
