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.
Data Protection Policy Italy's environment and energy ministry has approved six utility-scale battery storage projects in Lazio, Campania, Basilicata and Puglia.
A 54.4 MW BESS in Santeramo in Colle (Bari, Apulia – Southeastern Italy), awarded to Jupiter Srl. The 50 MW “Stornara” BESS project in Stornara (Foggia, Apulia – Southeastern Italy), awarded to Atlas Storage 5 Srl. The 25 MW “Malone” BESS project in Ceprano (Frosinone, Lazio – Central Italy), awarded to GreenStore 4 Srl.
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.
According to Italia Solare''s assessment, as of September 30, 2025, Italy had 848,814 connected electrochemical storage systems, representing a total energy capacity of 17,416 MWh and
Regarding large-scale energy storage, new installations will also decline in 2025, as some projects auctioned in 2024 have already been connected to the grid. New capacity additions in
