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.

How much energy does Italy need?

The 187MW project in Piemonte will be submitted for approval later this year. Terna (the Italian TSO) estimates in the last Adequacy Report for the Italian Electricity System that Italy will need around 27GW of energy storage capacity by 2033 to add a planned 120 GW+ of renewable generation to the Italian grid.

What are Italy's energy goals?

Italy’s ambitious energy goals, outlined in the National Integrated Energy and Climate Plan (PNIEC), mark a transformative shift toward renewable energy. By 2030, the country is targeting 28GW of wind power and nearly 80GW of solar capacity, making energy storage essential for ensuring grid stability and maximizing renewable integration.

Which projects have been submitted to the Italian Ministry of energy?

The 111MW project in Lombardia and the 97MW project in Puglia have been submitted to the Italian Ministry of Energy for approval. The 187MW project in Piemonte will be submitted for approval later this year.

What is SAET's role in energy storage?

SAET is a company present on the international Energy Storage market, providing turnkey systems of various sizes. They handle the project from the initial steps, such as feasibility study and cost-benefit analysis, to the definition of the sizing and optimal energy/power ratio, and the detailed design and optimization of the storage system performance.
