To develop utility-scale electricity storage facilities, the Italian Government set up a scheme that was approved by the European Commission at the end of 2023. Italy will promote investments in utility scale electricity storage to reach at least 70 GWh, and worth over Euro 17 bn, in the next ten years.
The company's commitment translates into both proprietary solutions and adaptation - already today - to the most stringent EU requirements for digitised energy infrastructures. The Italian storage market also represents a key test bed for large-scale integration of renewables and smart grid management.
