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.
The research and analysis conducted for this report were supported by the European Climate Foundation. This report is part of a series that analyses the battery storage market in select European countries. Italy has both a rapidly growing utility-scale market as well as a flourishing customer-sited battery storage market.
The planned, up-to-8 GWh-per-year “gigafactory,” part funded by €7.15 million ($9.47 million) of European Union post-Covid “PNRR” funding for Italy, is set to be operational this year. Energy S.p.A. plans to begin selling large-scale storage systems from the gigafab in 2026.
“This award, in the context of the 2024 Capacity Market auctions, is an important signal and opens the doors for the future projects that Italy will need to put in view of the EU 2030 decarbonisation objectives,” NHOA Energy’s vice president Fabrizio Ciaccia said.
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.
