Does Italy need an efficient energy storage system?

These targets cannot be achieved without implementing an efficient energy storage system in Italy. Italy’s growing need for storage systems is particularly evident in Central and Southern Italy, where a large number of renewable energy plants have been installed.

Is there a real energy transition in Italy?

There can be no real energy transition in Italy without electricity storage systems. And here Enel Green Power is also playing a leading role, particularly in battery energy storage systems (BESS), which are increasingly efficient and competitive, thanks to technological innovation.

Does Italy still need to readjust its energy plans?

Energy expert Virginia Canazza discussed the topic with pv magazine. Italy simplified permitting for small storage systems last year but the country still needs to readjust its medium-term plans to make them coherent with its ambitious climate and energy targets.

Is Italy a good place to invest in energy storage?

Italy is an incredibly interesting and fast-growing market for renewables and there’s significant untapped potential in the energy storage sector. “Big batteries like the ones we’re developing with this new joint venture make the most of when it’s sunny and windy by storing abundant green energy and releasing it back into the grid when it’s needed.

Are energy storage facilities regulated in Italy?

The Italian regulatory framework concerning energy storage facilities has been evolving rapidly in recent years. However, the legislation is relatively fragmented, given the high number of laws governing different aspects of energy storage facilities.

Does Italy need a small storage system?

Italy simplified permitting for small storage systems last year but the country still needs to readjust its medium-term plans to make them coherent with its ambitious climate and energy targets. “Storage needs to be considered, also in line with the European approach, as a market player, similar to a generating asset,” said Canazza.
