MP: The future of energy storage in Italy is bright. With investments in technology, regulatory support, and declining costs, BESS will become a key pillar of Italy’s transition to a sustainable energy future. Telis Energy is proud to play a role in this journey by originating, developing, and building high-quality BESS projects.
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 an average capacity of less than 20 kWh.
METLEN Energy & Metals continues to reinforce its commitment to supporting Italy's energy transition with the implementation of two new battery energy projects, which secured contracts in the Capacity Market auctions for the 2025/26 period. Specifically, METLEN has secured 15-year contracts for the development of the following projects:
The remaining 3–4 GW is expected to come from utility-scale systems. By 2050, Italy aims to achieve 30-40 GW of storage capacity. There are significant regional differences in the adoption of battery storage systems across the country.
MP: BESS are becoming increasingly vital in Italy’s energy transition. With the ambitious targets outlined in the National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP), including reducing carbon emissions and increasing renewable energy to 30% of final energy consumption by 2030, BESS are essential.
That is why Italy aims to add 15GW of BESS capacity by 2030 (of which 11GW should be standalone and 4GW co-located). As of March 2025, Italy has got 1GW of grid-scale BESS capacity online, placing the country in third place in Europe (shared with Ireland) in terms of installed capacity, behind Germany (1.6GW) and the UK (5.6GW).
