The Elemens Italy BESS Index is the first performance indicator for spot market revenues of stand-alone utility-scale batteries operating in the Italian electricity system. The tool has been designed to provide industry players with up-to-date and detailed insights into the economic performance of BESS assets.
While Northern Italy currently has the largest installed BESS capacity in the country, a build-out of RES in the South is increasing energy price volatility, creating a more compelling investment case for BESS in this region.
Revenue Streams for BESS: The business case for BESS in Italy is underpinned by four main revenue streams: wholesale trading, the Ancillary Services Market (MSD), the Capacity Market (MC), and the new energy storage subsidy scheme (MACSE).
The Italian government is aiming for 15GW of BESS capacity by 2030 to maintain security of supply. The Italian government, regulator, and Transmission Service Operator (TSO) are creating an attractive regulatory environment for BESS by offering multiple incentive schemes and updating the grid code.
The cost of BESS has fallen significantly over the past decade, with more precipitous drops in recent years: This is nearly a 70% reduction in three years, owing to falling battery pack prices (now as low as $60-70/kWh in China), increased deployment, and improved efficiency.
BESS capacity development Total BESS installations in Italy now exceed 6 GW / 14 GWh, but this is mostly behind-the-meter storage co-located with rooftop solar in the North zone. Terna’s plans aim for over 70 GWh by 2030 to achieve Italy’s NECP RES targets — a fivefold energy capacity increase (Chart 2).
