| Nature of the business | Note 1. - Nature of the business Atlantica Yield plc (“Atlantica” or the “Company”) was incorporated in England and Wales as a private limited company on December 17, 2013 under the name Abengoa Yield Limited. On March 19, 2014, the Company was re-registered as a public limited company, under the name Abengoa Yield plc. On May 13, 2016, the change of the Company´s registered name to Atlantica Yield plc was filed with the Registrar of Companies in the United Kingdom. Atlantica is a sustainable total return infrastructure company that owns, manages and acquires renewable energy, efficient natural gas, electric transmission lines and water assets focused on North America (the United States, Mexico and Canada), South America (Peru, Chile and Uruguay) and EMEA (Spain, Algeria and South Africa). Atlantica’s shares began trading on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “ABY” on June 13, 2014. The symbol changed to “AY” on November 11, 2017. On March 9, 2018 and on November 27, 2018, Algonquin Power & Utilities (“Algonquin”) announced that it completed the acquisition from Abengoa S.A, (“Abengoa”) of a 25% and 16.47% equity interest in Atlantica, respectively. Algonquin is the largest shareholder of the Company and currently owns a 44.2% stake in Atlantica. Algonquin does not consolidate the Company in its consolidated financial statements. During the year 2018, the Company completed the following acquisitions:
On January 29, 2019, the Company entered into an agreement with Abengoa under the Right of First Offer (“ROFO”) Agreement for the acquisition of Befesa Agua Tenes, S.L.U., a holding company which in turn owns a 51% stake in Tenes, a water desalination plant in Algeria. Closing of the acquisition is subject to conditions precedent, including the approval by the Algerian administration. At this stage, the Company cannot guarantee it will obtain this approval nor the expected timing of such approval. The price agreed for the equity value is $24.5 million, of which $19.9 million was paid in January 2019 as an advance payment and the rest is expected to be paid once the conditions precedent are fulfilled. If all the conditions precedent are not fulfilled by September 30, 2019, the advance payment shall be progressively reimbursed by Abengoa through a full cash-sweep of all the dividends to be received and in any case no later than September 30, 2031, together with an annual 12% interest. These dividends would be guaranteed by a right of usufruct over the economic rights and certain political rights and a pledge over the shares of Befesa Agua Tenés, S.L.U., granted by Abengoa to the Company. On April 15, 2019, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire a 30% stake in Monterrey, a 142 MW gas-fired engine facility including 130MW installed capacity and 12 MW battery capacity. The acquisition was closed on August 2, 2019, after conditions precedent were fulfilled, and the Company paid $42 million for the total equity investment. The asset, located in Mexico, has been in operation since 2018 and represents the first investment in electric batteries for the Company. It has a U.S. dollar-denominated 20-year PPA with two international large corporations engaged in the car manufacturing industry as well as a 20-year contract for the natural gas transportation with a U.S. energy company. The PPA also includes price escalation factors. The asset is the sole electricity supplier for the off-takers, it has no commodity risk and also has the possibility to sell excess energy to the North-East region of the country. The Company also entered into a ROFO agreement with the seller of the shares for the remaining 70% stake in the asset. On May 9, 2019, the Company entered into a partnership agreement with Algonquin, investing $4.9 million in the equity of a wind farm plant, Amherst Island, with a 75 MW installed capacity, owned and operated by Algonquin in Canada. The following table provides an overview of the concessional assets the Company owned as of June 30, 2019:
The project financing arrangement of Kaxu contains cross-default provisions related to Abengoa such that debt defaults by Abengoa, subject to certain threshold amounts and/or a restructuring process, could trigger a default under the Kaxu project financing arrangement. In March 2017, Atlantica obtained a waiver in its Kaxu project financing arrangement which waives any potential cross-defaults with Abengoa up to that date, but it does not cover potential future cross-default events. As of June 30, 2019, there are no cross-default events with Abengoa. |

| Basis of preparation [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Basis of preparation | Note 2. - Basis of preparation The accompanying consolidated condensed interim financial statements represent the consolidated results of the Company and its subsidiaries. The company´s annual consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2018, were approved by the Board of Directors on February 26, 2019. These consolidated condensed interim financial statements are presented in accordance with International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) 34, “Interim Financial Reporting”. In accordance with IAS 34, interim financial information is prepared solely in order to update the most recent annual consolidated financial statements prepared by the Company, placing emphasis on new activities, occurrences and circumstances that have taken place during the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, and not duplicating the information previously published in the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018. Therefore, the consolidated condensed interim financial statements do not include all the information that would be required in a complete set of consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with the IFRS-IASB (“International Financial Reporting Standards-International Accounting Standards Board”). In view of the above, for an adequate understanding of the information, these consolidated condensed interim financial statements must be read together with Atlantica’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 included in the 2018 20-F. In determining the information to be disclosed in the notes to the consolidated condensed interim financial statements, Atlantica, in accordance with IAS 34, has taken into account its materiality in relation to the consolidated condensed interim financial statements. The consolidated condensed interim financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars, which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency. Amounts included in these consolidated condensed interim financial statements are all expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated. These consolidated condensed interim financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors of the Company on August 2, 2019. Application of new accounting standards a) Standards, interpretations and amendments effective from January 1, 2019 under IFRS-IASB, applied by the Company in the preparation of these condensed interim financial statements:
The applications of these amendments have not had any material impact on these condensed interim financial statements. b) Standards, interpretations and amendments published by the IASB that will be effective for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2020:
The Company does not anticipate any significant impact on the consolidated condensed financial statements derived from the application of the new standards and amendments that will be effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2020, although it is currently still in the process of evaluating such application. Use of estimates Some of the accounting policies applied require the application of significant judgment by management to select the appropriate assumptions to determine these estimates. These assumptions and estimates are based on the Company´s historical experience, advice from experienced consultants, forecasts and other circumstances and expectations as of the close of the financial period. The assessment is considered in relation to the global economic situation of the industries and regions where the Company operates, taking into account future development of our businesses. By their nature, these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty; therefore, actual results could materially differ from the estimates and assumptions used. In such cases, the carrying values of assets and liabilities are adjusted. The most critical accounting policies, which reflect significant management estimates and judgment to determine amounts in these consolidated condensed interim financial statements, are as follows:
As of the date of preparation of these consolidated condensed interim financial statements, no relevant changes in the estimates made are anticipated and, therefore, no significant changes in the value of the assets and liabilities recognized at June 30, 2019 are expected. Although these estimates and assumptions are being made using all available facts and circumstances, it is possible that future events may require management to amend such estimates and assumptions in future periods. Changes in accounting estimates are recognized prospectively, in accordance with IAS 8, in the consolidated income statement of the period in which the change occurs. |

| Financial information by segment | Note 4. - Financial information by segment Atlantica’s segment structure reflects how management currently makes financial decisions and allocates resources. Its operating segments are based on the following geographies where the contracted concessional assets are located:
Based on the type of business, as of June 30, 2019, the Company had the following business sectors: Renewable energy: Renewable energy assets include two solar plants in the United States, Solana and Mojave, each with a gross capacity of 280 MW and located in Arizona and California, respectively. The Company owns eight solar platforms in Spain: Solacor 1 and 2 with a gross capacity of 100 MW, PS10 and PS20 with a gross capacity of 31 MW, Solaben 2 and 3 with a gross capacity of 100 MW, Helioenergy 1 and 2 with a gross capacity of 100 MW, Helios 1 and 2 with a gross capacity of 100 MW, Solnova 1, 3 and 4 with a gross capacity of 150 MW, Solaben 1 and 6 with a gross capacity of 100 MW and Seville PV with a gross capacity of 1 MW. The Company also owns a solar plant in South Africa, Kaxu with a gross capacity of 100 MW. Additionally, the Company owns three wind farms in Uruguay, Palmatir, Cadonal and Melowind, with a gross capacity of 50 MW each, and a hydroelectric power plant in Peru with a gross capacity of 4 MW. Efficient natural gas: The Company´s sole efficient natural gas asset is ACT, a 300 MW cogeneration plant in Mexico, which is party to a 20-year take-or-pay contract with Pemex for the sale of electric power and steam. Electric transmission lines: Electric transmission assets include (i) three lines in Peru, ATN, ATS and ATN2, spanning a total of 1,015 miles; and (ii) four lines in Chile, Quadra 1, Quadra 2, Palmucho and Chile TL3, spanning a total of 137 miles. Water: Water assets include a minority interest in two desalination plants in Algeria, Honaine and Skikda with an aggregate capacity of 10.5 Mft3 per day Atlantica’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) assesses the performance and assignment of resources according to the identified operating segments. The CODM considers the revenues as a measure of the business activity and the Further Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of the performance of each segment. Further Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as profit/(loss) for the period attributable to the parent company, after adding back loss/(profit) attributable to non-controlling interests from continued operations, income tax, share of profit/(loss) of associates carried under the equity method, finance expense net, depreciation, amortization and impairment charges of entities included in these consolidated financial statements, and compensations received from Abengoa in lieu of Abengoa Concessões Brasil Holding (“ACBH”) dividends (for the period up to the first quarter of 2017 only). In order to assess performance of the business, the CODM receives reports of each reportable segment using revenues and Further Adjusted EBITDA. Net interest expense evolution is assessed on a consolidated basis. Financial expense and amortization are not taken into consideration by the CODM for the allocation of resources. In the six-month periods ended June 30, 2019, Atlantica had three customers with revenues representing more than 10% of the total revenues, two in the renewable energy and one in the efficient natural gas business sectors. In the six-month periods ended June 30, 2018, Atlantica had four customers with revenues representing more than 10% of the total revenues, three in the renewable energy and one in the efficient natural gas business sectors.
The reconciliation of segment Further Adjusted EBITDA with the profit/(loss) attributable to the Company is as follows:
Assets and liabilities by geography as of June 30, 2019:

| Changes in the scope of the consolidated condensed interim financial statements | Note 5. - Changes in the scope of the consolidated condensed interim financial statements For the six-month period ended June 30, 2019 On May 24, 2019, Atlantica and Algonquin formed Atlantica Yield Energy Solutions Canada Inc. (“AYES Canada”), a vehicle to channel co-investment opportunities in which Atlantica holds the majority of voting rights. The first investment was in Amherst Island, a 75 MW wind plant in Canada owned by the project company Windlectric, Inc. (“Windlectric”). Atlantica invested $4.9 million and Algonquin invested $92.3 million, both through AYES Canada, which in turn invested those funds in Amherst Island Partnership (“AIP”), the holding company of Windlectric. Atlantica accounts for the investment in AIP and ultimately Windlectric under the equity method as per IAS 28, Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures. Since Atlantica has control over AYES Canada under IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements”, its consolidated financial statements show a total investment in the Amherst Island project of $97.2 million, accounted for as “Investments carried under the equity method” (Note 7) and Algonquin’s portion of that investment of $92.3 million as “Non-controlling interest”. For the year ended December 31, 2018 On February 28, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of a 100% stake in Hidrocañete, S.A. (Mini-Hydro). Total purchase price for this asset amounted to $9,327 thousand. The acquisition has been accounted for in the consolidated accounts of Atlantica, in accordance with IFRS 3, Business Combinations. On October 10, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of a 5% stake in Gas CA-KU-A1, S.A.P.I de C.V. (Pemex Transportation System or “PTS”). The acquisition has been accounted for in the consolidated accounts of Atlantica, in accordance with IAS 28, Investments in Associates. Consideration for the initial 5%, which amounts to approximately $7 million will be disbursed progressively as construction progresses. Once the project enters into operation, which is expected for the first half of 2020, the Company expects to acquire an additional 65% as per the terms of the purchase agreements. Finally, the Company expects to acquire the remaining 30% one year after COD, subject to final approvals. The total equity investment is estimated to amount to approximately $150 million. On December 11, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of a transmission line in Chile (Chile TL3). The total purchase price for this asset amounted to $6 million. The acquisition has been accounted for in the consolidated financial statements of Atlantica, in accordance with IFRS 3, Business Combinations. On December 13, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of a 100% stake in Estrellada, S.A. (Melowind). Total purchase price for this asset amounted to approximately $45 million. The acquisition has been accounted for in the consolidated financial statements of Atlantica, in accordance with IFRS 3, Business Combinations. On December 28, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of a power substation and two small transmission lines in Peru, being an expansion of the ATN transmission line (“ATN expansion 1”). Total purchase price for this asset amounted to $16 million. The acquisition has been accounted for in the consolidated financial statements of Atlantica, in accordance with IFRS 3, Business Combinations. The amount of assets and liabilities integrated at the effective acquisition date for the aggregated change in scope is shown in the following table:
As a result of the acquisitions being made effective near to year end, the allocation of the purchase prices was provisional as of December 31, 2018. As such, the amounts indicated may be adjusted during the measurement period to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the amounts recognized as of December 31, 2018. The measurement period will not exceed one year from the acquisition dates. |

| Contracted concessional assets | Note 6. - Contracted concessional assets The detail of contracted concessional assets included in the heading ‘Contracted concessional assets’ as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 is as follows:
Contracted concessional assets include fixed assets financed through project debt, related to service concession arrangements recorded in accordance with IFRIC 12, except for Palmucho, which is recorded in accordance with IAS 17, and PS10, PS20, Seville PV, Mini-Hydro and Chile TL3 which are recorded as property plant and equipment in accordance with IAS 16. Concessional assets recorded in accordance with IFRIC 12 are either intangible or financial assets. As of June 30, 2019, contracted concessional financial assets amount to $840,876 thousand ($843,291 thousand as of December 31, 2018). The decrease in the contracted concessional assets cost is primarily due to the lower value of assets denominated in euros since the exchange rate of the euro decreased against the U.S. dollar since December 31, 2018. No losses from impairment of contracted concessional assets were recorded during the six-month period ended June 30, 2019 ($42.7 million during the year 2018 in the Solana project). Other matters Abengoa maintains a number of obligations under O&M and other contracts, as well as indemnities covering certain potential risks. Additionally, Abengoa represented that further to the accession to the restructuring agreement, Atlantica would not be a guarantor of any obligation of Abengoa with respect to third parties and agreed to indemnify the Company for any penalty claimed by third parties resulting from any breach in such representations. The Company has contingent assets, which have not been recognized as of June 30, 2019, related to the obligations of Abengoa referred above, which result and amounts will depend on the occurrence of uncertain future events. In particular as of April 26, 2018 and November 28, 2018, Abengoa agreed to pay Atlantica certain amounts subject to conditions which are beyond the control of the Company. The Company entered into a Financial Support Agreement on June 13, 2014, under which Abengoa agreed to maintain any guarantees and letters of credit that have been provided by it on behalf of or for the benefit of Atlantica and its affiliates for a period of five years. This agreement with Abengoa expired in June 2019, and Abengoa’s commitment to maintain guarantees and letters of credit currently outstanding in the Company´s affiliates´ favor expired, as well. The Company replaced all the guarantees where necessary. |

| Financial investments | Note 8. - Financial investments The detail of Non-current and Current financial investments as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 is as follows:
Investment in Ten West Link is a 12.5% interest in a 114-mile transmission line in the U.S. Investment in Rioglass corresponds to the acquisition of 15.12% of the equity interest of Rioglass, a multinational solar power and renewable energy technology manufacturer specialized in developing key optical components for solar power plants. Current other receivable accounts include restricted cash amounting to $78.4 million as of June 30, 2019 ($78.9 million as of December 31, 2018). The increase of Non-current other receivable accounts at amortized cost is primarily due to the $19.9 million advance payment the Company made in January 2019 for the acquisition of Befesa Agua Tenés S.L.U. (Note 1). |

| Derivative financial instruments | Note 9. - Derivative financial instruments The breakdowns of the fair value amount of the derivative financial instruments as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 are as follows:
The derivatives are primarily interest rate cash flow hedges. All are classified as non-current assets or non-current liabilities, as they hedge long-term financing agreements. Additionally, the Company owns currency options with leading international financial institutions, which guarantee minimum Euro-U.S. dollar exchange rates. The strategy of the Company is to hedge the exchange rate for the distributions from its Spanish assets after deducting euro-denominated interest payments and euro-denominated general and administrative expenses. Through currency options, the strategy of the Company is to hedge 100% of its euro-denominated net exposure for the next 12 months and 75% of its euro denominated net exposure for the following 12 months, on a rolling basis. Hedge accounting is not applied to these options. The net amount of the fair value of interest rate derivatives designated as cash flow hedges transferred to the consolidated condensed income statement is a loss of $29.3 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019 (loss of $33.9 million in the six-month period ended June 30, 2018) The after-tax results accumulated in equity in connection with derivatives designated as cash flow hedges as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 amount to a profit of $52.2 million and a profit of $95.0 million, respectively. |

| Corporate debt | Note 14. - Corporate debt The breakdown of the corporate debt as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 is as follows:
The repayment schedule for the corporate debt as of June 30, 2019 is as follows:
On November 17, 2014, the Company issued the Senior Notes due 2019 in an aggregate principal amount of $255,000 thousand (the “2019 Notes”). The 2019 Notes accrued annual interest of 7.00% payable semi-annually beginning on May 15, 2015 until their maturity date. The 2019 Notes were fully repaid on May 29, 2019. On February 10, 2017, the Company issued Senior Notes due 2022, 2023, 2024 (the “Note Issuance Facility”), in an aggregate principal amount of €275,000 thousand. The 2022 to 2024 Notes accrue annual interest, equal to the sum of (i) EURIBOR plus (ii) 4.90%, as determined by the Agent. Interest on the Notes are payable in cash quarterly in arrears on each interest payment date. The Company pays interest to the holders of record on each interest payment date. The interest rate on the Note Issuance Facility is fully hedged by two interest rate swaps contracted with Jefferies Financial Services, Inc. with effective date March 31, 2017 and maturity date December 31, 2022, resulting in the Company paying a net fixed interest rate of 5.5% on the Note Issuance Facility. Changes in fair value of these interest rate swaps have been recorded in the consolidated income statement. The Note Issuance Facility is a € denominated liability for which the Company applies net investment hedge accounting. When converted to US$ at US$/€ closing exchange rate, it contributes to reduce the impact in translation difference reserves generated in the equity of these consolidated financial statements by the conversion of the net assets of the Spanish solar assets into US$. On July 20, 2017, the Company signed a credit facility (the “2017 Credit Facility”) for up to €10 million, approximately $11.4 million, which is available in euros or U.S. dollars and was fully drawn down in 2017. Amounts drawn down accrue interest at a rate per year equal to EURIBOR plus 2.25% or LIBOR plus 2.25%, depending on the currency. The credit facility maturity date was July 20, 2019 and therefore the amounts drawn down were classified as Current as of June 30, 2019. It has been renewed during the month of July 2019 and the new maturity date is July 4, 2020. On May 10, 2018, the Company entered into a $215 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) with Royal Bank of Canada, as administrative agent and Royal Bank of Canada and Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, as issuers of letters of credit. Amounts drawn down accrue interest at a rate per year equal to (A) for Eurodollar rate loans, LIBOR plus a percentage determined by reference to the leverage ratio of the Company, ranging between 1.60% and 2.25% and (B) for base rate loans, the highest of (i) the rate per annum equal to the weighted average of the rates on overnight U.S. Federal funds transactions with members of the U.S. Federal Reserve System arranged by U.S. Federal funds brokers on such day plus ½ of 1.00%, (ii) the U.S. prime rate and (iii) LIBOR plus 1.00%, in any case, plus a percentage determined by reference to the leverage ratio of the Company, ranging between 0.60% and 1.00%. Letters of credit may be issued using up to $70 million of the Revolving Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2019, the Company had drawn down an amount of $73 million (net of debt issuance costs). During the month of January 2019, the amount of the Revolving Credit Facility increased from $215 million to $300 million. On August 2, 2019, the amount of the Revolving Credit Facility increased from $300 million to $425 million and the maturity was extended to December 31, 2022 for $387.5 million, while the remaining $37.5 million matures on December 31, 2021. As of June 2019, the maturity of the Revolving Credit Facility was December 31, 2021 for its full amount. Current corporate debt corresponds mainly to the nominal of the 2017 Credit Facility. On April 30, 2019, the Company entered into a senior unsecured note facility with a group of funds managed by Westbourne Capital as purchasers of the notes issued thereunder for a total amount of €268 million (the “2019 Note Issuance Facility”). The principal amount was issued in May 24, 2019 and was used to prepay and subsequently cancel in full the aforementioned 2019 Notes and for general corporate purposes. The 2019 Note Issuance Facility includes an upfront fee of 2% paid on drawdown and its maturity date is April 30, 2025. Interest accrue at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 3-month EURIBOR plus 4.65%. The interest rate on the 2019 Note Issuance Facility is fully hedged by an interest rate swap with effective date June 28, 2019 and maturity date June 30, 2022, resulting in the Company paying a net fixed interest rate of 4.4%. The 2019 Note Issuance Facility provides that the Company may capitalize interest on the notes issued thereunder for a period of up to two years from closing at the Company´s discretion, subject to certain conditions. |

| Project debt [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Project debt | Note 15. - Project debt The main purpose of the Company is the long-term ownership and management of contracted concessional assets, such as renewable energy, efficient natural gas, electric transmission line and water assets, which are financed through project debt. This note shows the project debt linked to the contracted concessional assets included in Note 6 of these consolidated condensed interim financial statements. Project debt is generally used to finance contracted assets, exclusively using as guarantee the assets and cash flows of the company or group of companies carrying out the activities financed. In most of the cases, the assets and/or contracts are set up as guarantee to ensure the repayment of the related financing. In addition, the cash of the Company´s projects includes funds held to satisfy the customary requirements of certain non-recourse debt agreements and other restricted cash for an amount of $247 million as of June 30, 2019 ($296 million as of December 31, 2018). Compared with corporate debt, project debt has certain key advantages, including a greater leverage and a clearly defined risk profile. The breakdown of project debt for both non-current and current liabilities as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 is as follows:
The decrease in total project debt is primarily due to contractual payments of debt for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019. Due to the PG&E Corporation and its regulated utility subsidiary, Pacific Gas and Electric Company (“PG&E”), chapter 11 filings in January 2019, a default of the PPA agreement with PG&E occurred. Since PG&E failed to assume the PPA within 180 days from the commencement of the PG&E's chapter 11 proceedings, a technical event of default was triggered under the Mojave project finance agreement in July 2019, and this event was highly probable as of June 30, 2019. Although the Company does not contemplate the scenario under which the DOE would declare the acceleration of debt, the project debt agreement does not have an unconditional right to defer the settlement of the debt for at least twelve months as of June 30, 2019, as the event of default provision make that right not totally unconditional, and therefore the debt has been presented as current in these condensed interim financial statements in accordance with International Accounting Standards 1 (“IAS 1”), “Presentation of Financial Statements”. The repayment schedule for project debt in accordance with the financing arrangements and assuming there will be no acceleration of the Mojave debt, as of June 30, 2019, is as follows and is consistent with the projected cash flows of the related projects:

| Grants and other liabilities | Note 16. - Grants and other liabilities
As of June 30, 2019, the amount recorded in Grants corresponds primarily to the ITC Grant awarded by the U.S. Department of the Treasury to Solana and Mojave for a total amount of $723 million ($739 million as of December 31, 2018), which was primarily used to fully repay the Solana and Mojave short-term tranche of the loan with the Federal Financing Bank. The amount recorded in Grants as a liability is progressively recorded as other income over the useful life of the asset. The remaining balance of the “Grants” account corresponds to loans with interest rates below market rates for Solana and Mojave for a total amount of $393 million ($410 million as of December 31, 2018). Loans with the Federal Financing Bank guaranteed by the Department of Energy for these projects bear interest at a rate below market rates for these types of projects and terms. The difference between proceeds received from these loans and its fair value, is initially recorded as “Grants” in the consolidated statement of financial position, and subsequently recorded in “Other operating income” starting at the entry into operation of the plants. Total amount of income for these two types of grants for Solana and Mojave is $29.5 million and $29.6 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Other liabilities mainly relate to the investment from Liberty Interactive Corporation (”Liberty”) made on October 2, 2013 for an amount of $300 million. The investment was made in class A shares of Arizona Solar Holding, the holding of Solana Solar plant in the United States. Such investment was made in a tax equity partnership which permits the partners to have certain tax benefits such as accelerated depreciation and ITC. Liberty has the right to receive 61.20% of taxable losses and distributions until such time as Liberty reaches a certain rate of return, or the Flip Date, and 22.60% of taxable losses and distributions thereafter. Given the underperformance of the asset in the last years, there is uncertainty regarding the Flip Date, regarding when it will occur, if so. The Company expects potential cash distributions from Solana to go mostly or entirely to Liberty in the upcoming years. According to the stipulations of IAS 32 and in spite of the fact that the investment of Liberty is in shares, it does not qualify as equity and has been classified as a liability as of June 30, 2019 and as of December 2018. The liability is recorded in Grants and other liabilities for a total amount of $371 million as of June 30, 2019 ($358 million as of December 31, 2018) and its current portion is recorded in other current liabilities for the remaining amount (Note 17). This liability has been initially valued at fair value, calculated as the present value of expected cash-flows during the useful life of the concession, and is then measured at amortized cost in accordance with the effective interest method, considering the most updated expected future cash-flows. Additionally, other liabilities include $55 million as of June 30, 2019 ($57 million as of December 2018) of finance lease liabilities. |

| Basis of preparation [Abstract] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Basis of preparation | The accompanying consolidated condensed interim financial statements represent the consolidated results of the Company and its subsidiaries. The company´s annual consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2018, were approved by the Board of Directors on February 26, 2019. These consolidated condensed interim financial statements are presented in accordance with International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) 34, “Interim Financial Reporting”. In accordance with IAS 34, interim financial information is prepared solely in order to update the most recent annual consolidated financial statements prepared by the Company, placing emphasis on new activities, occurrences and circumstances that have taken place during the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, and not duplicating the information previously published in the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018. Therefore, the consolidated condensed interim financial statements do not include all the information that would be required in a complete set of consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with the IFRS-IASB (“International Financial Reporting Standards-International Accounting Standards Board”). In view of the above, for an adequate understanding of the information, these consolidated condensed interim financial statements must be read together with Atlantica’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 included in the 2018 20-F. In determining the information to be disclosed in the notes to the consolidated condensed interim financial statements, Atlantica, in accordance with IAS 34, has taken into account its materiality in relation to the consolidated condensed interim financial statements. The consolidated condensed interim financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars, which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency. Amounts included in these consolidated condensed interim financial statements are all expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated. These consolidated condensed interim financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors of the Company on August 2, 2019. Application of new accounting standards a) Standards, interpretations and amendments effective from January 1, 2019 under IFRS-IASB, applied by the Company in the preparation of these condensed interim financial statements:
The applications of these amendments have not had any material impact on these condensed interim financial statements. b) Standards, interpretations and amendments published by the IASB that will be effective for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2020:
The Company does not anticipate any significant impact on the consolidated condensed financial statements derived from the application of the new standards and amendments that will be effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2020, although it is currently still in the process of evaluating such application. |

| Use of estimates | Use of estimates Some of the accounting policies applied require the application of significant judgment by management to select the appropriate assumptions to determine these estimates. These assumptions and estimates are based on the Company´s historical experience, advice from experienced consultants, forecasts and other circumstances and expectations as of the close of the financial period. The assessment is considered in relation to the global economic situation of the industries and regions where the Company operates, taking into account future development of our businesses. By their nature, these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty; therefore, actual results could materially differ from the estimates and assumptions used. In such cases, the carrying values of assets and liabilities are adjusted. The most critical accounting policies, which reflect significant management estimates and judgment to determine amounts in these consolidated condensed interim financial statements, are as follows:
As of the date of preparation of these consolidated condensed interim financial statements, no relevant changes in the estimates made are anticipated and, therefore, no significant changes in the value of the assets and liabilities recognized at June 30, 2019 are expected. Although these estimates and assumptions are being made using all available facts and circumstances, it is possible that future events may require management to amend such estimates and assumptions in future periods. Changes in accounting estimates are recognized prospectively, in accordance with IAS 8, in the consolidated income statement of the period in which the change occurs. |

The equity method is a method of accounting whereby the investment is initially recognised at cost and adjusted thereafter for the post-acquisition change in the investor's share of net assets of the investee. The investor's profit or loss includes its share of the profit or loss of the investee. The investor's other comprehensive income includes its share of the other comprehensive income of the investee.
