Industry Overview. The residential energy storage market is expanding quickly and is anticipated to continue to do so in the years to come. From 2025 to 2030, the global residential energy
However, permitting bottlenecks remain a key concern. Figures by industry group Italia Solare put the current size of the Italian energy storage sector at approximately 450MW of total installed capacity.
Italian transmission system operator (TSO) Terna said that 1GW of storage linked to solar farms will be needed by 2025 to help maintain system adequacy, with additional 6GW of utility-scale storage needed by 2030. The majority of revenue for storage assets comes from participation in Terna’s fast reserve scheme.
LONDON (ICIS)–Market actors predict growth in the Italian energy storage sector will be driven by the system balancing needs of the grid operator in the face of increasing renewable penetration and conventional plant closures. However, permitting bottlenecks remain a key concern.
This report is part of a series that analyses the battery storage market in select European countries. Italy has both a rapidly growing utility-scale market as well as a flourishing customer-sited battery storage market. Customer-sited storage adoption has been mainly driven by a combination of high electricity prices and generous tax incentives.
To maintain grid stability, TERNA forecasts the need for 71GWh of storage, equivalent to about 20GW of capacity by 2030. The second edition of RENMAD Storage Italia (April 2-3, 2025) will bring together leading experts and industry leaders to discuss the evolving energy storage landscape, exploring both the opportunities and challenges ahead.
Fluence growth and market development director for EMEA Julian Jansen told ICIS the Italian fast reserve tenders represent a strong revenue opportunity for building initial momentum and investor confidence in the energy storage sector.
