What role will Bess play in Italy's future energy landscape?
MP: BESS will play a critical role in stabilizing Italy’s future energy landscape. As more renewable energy sources are integrated into the national grid, BESS will ensure that we meet Italy’s climate targets. By , we expect BESS to be indispensable for optimizing energy use and providing a reliable, sustainable energy system.
How important are Bess in Italy's energy transition?
MP: BESS are becoming increasingly vital in Italy’s energy transition. With the ambitious targets outlined in the National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP), including reducing carbon emissions and increasing renewable energy to 30% of final energy consumption by , BESS are essential.
Is Bess a good investment in northern Italy?
While Northern Italy currently has the largest installed BESS capacity in the country, a build-out of RES in the South is increasing energy price volatility, creating a more compelling investment case for BESS in this region.
How much Bess capacity will Italy have by ?
That is why Italy aims to add 15GW of BESS capacity by (of which 11GW should be standalone and 4GW co-located). As of March , Italy has got 1GW of grid-scale BESS capacity online, placing the country in third place in Europe (shared with Ireland) in terms of installed capacity, behind Germany (1.6GW) and the UK (5.6GW).
Why is Telis energy advancing Bess Technology in Italy?
