It should also support substantial volumes of debt financing at relatively high loan to value ratios. So how much storage are we talking about and where will it get developed? Italy’s long term contract tender mechanism to support storage investment was ratified in June 2023 (ARERA resolution 247/2023/R/eel), after an initial proposal in 2022.
“As Italy continues its renewable energy transition, battery technology stands to play a hugely important role in supporting established clean energy generators, through its ability to manage intermittency issues and associated price fluctuations.
The capacity market is well-suited to industrialised northern Italy with its developed infrastructure and higher industrial demand for power. While it offers 15-year contracts like MACSE, investors can stack their capacity payments (payments are then available when needed) on top of what they earn from selling energy in the wholesale market.
