The world is rapidly adopting renewable energy alternatives at a remarkable rate to address the ever-increasing environmental crisis of CO2 emissions.
The CM and a new energy storage-only auction scheme called MACSE are set to form the bedrock of the business case for grid-scale storage
Italy has approved 361 MW of battery energy storage systems to support renewable energy and grid stability across Lazio, Puglia, and Sardinia.
The largest project, a 160 MW facility, will be built in the municipality of Tuscania. Italy’s Ministry of the Environment and Energy Security (Mase) has issued final approvals for five new battery energy storage system (BESS) projects, paving the way for 361 MW of new capacity to be added to the nation’s grid.
As the penetration of solar power increases, grid stability has become a critical issue. In response, Italy is prioritizing the development of grid-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS Italy) alongside new industrial and commercial energy storage projects.
Italy, like much of Europe, is undergoing a rapid transformation in how it generates and distributes energy. With solar PV and wind power ramping up quickly, grid operators are increasingly reliant on energy storage systems to manage variability and avoid curtailment of renewable energy during periods of oversupply.
Accordingly, there is a growing market for industrial energy storage and commercial energy storage projects, positioning Italy as a leader in advanced Italy storage solutions and renewable energy Italy initiatives.
Final approvals were issued by Italy’s Ministry of the Environment and Energy Security (MASE) on August 5th, delivered through multiple Decreti Direttoriali (Directorial Decrees).
Italy’s national energy and climate plan (PNIEC) outlines ambitious targets for decarbonization and aims to reach around 70 GW of solar and 18 GW of wind capacity by 2030. Realizing this vision will require a parallel surge in C&I ESS and utility-scale storage to ensure energy security, grid stability, and affordability.
