FAQS about Installed memory of energy storage systems in Italy

Are battery energy storage systems needed in Italy?

Therefore, battery energy storage systems (BESS) are needed in Italy. The Italian market for BESS is growing rapidly and currently amounts to 2.3 GW but it almost exclusively consists of residential scale systems, associated with small scale solar plants, having a capacity of less than 20 kWh.

Where are solar storage systems deployed in Italy?

Most of the storage systems have been deployed in the region of Lombardy, with a combined capacity of 52 MW/114 MWh. The regional government is implementing a multi-year rebate scheme for residential and commercial storage systems coupled with PV. Italy's National Integrated Plan for Climate and Energy aims for 50GW of solar by 2030.

How will Italy develop utility-scale electricity storage facilities?

To develop utility-scale electricity storage facilities, the Italian Government set up a scheme that was approved by the European Commission at the end of 2023. Italy will promote investments in utility scale electricity storage to reach at least 70 GWh, and worth over Euro 17 bn, in the next ten years.

How many storage systems are there in Italy?

More in detail, 311,189 storage systems were present in Italy in mid- 2023, with a total power of 2,329 MW and a maximum capacity of 3,946 MWh. Terna (the high voltage grid operator) also holds systems totaling 60 MW in power and 250 MWh in capacity.

How will Italy invest in electricity storage?

Italy will promote investments in utility scale electricity storage to reach at least 70 GWh, and worth over Euro 17 bn, in the next ten years. The new storage capacity will be acquired through tenders published by Terna, the manager of Italy’s high voltage grid. The next tender will be released in 2024.

Why is Customer-Sited storage so popular in Italy?

Customer-sited storage adoption has been mainly driven by a combination of high electricity prices and generous tax incentives. For utility-scale systems, Italy has established favourable electricity market rules that enable projects to earn revenues from a range of different sources.
