Terna’s thinking The date is set. The first of Italy’s new energy storage capacity procurement auctions (MACSE) will take place on September 30, 2025, Terna’s president for grid development strategies, Francesco Del Pizzo, has confirmed.
From ESS News 2025 is set to see rapid growth in investment in the Italian energy storage sector, led by battery energy storage systems (BESS), with the implementation of MACSE. The eagerly anticipated procurement exercise will offer a stable, predictable premium over 15 years, making it particularly attractive for risk-averse investors.
Storage developers will receive an average price of nearly 13,000 euros ($15,240) per megawatt hour per year for the storage capacity made available to Terna, well below a ceiling of 37,000 euros per MWh. As its production of intermittent wind and solar grows, Italy needs to increase its storage capacity to make the grid more stable.
Most of the need for new utility-scale storage capacity is concentrated in Southern Italy and the islands, with 16.8 GWh required in the South, 13.6 GWh in Sicily and 10.4 GWh in Sardinia. Aurora's detailed analysis highlights the MACSE mechanism's ability to attract significant investments in energy storage, balancing risks and returns.
