In this episode, Leonard speaks with Roberto Castiglioni, co-founder and CEO of Ikigai Group, about how Italy’s storage market is evolving in the wake of the MACSE auction results. They discuss Ikigai’s 2.3GW battery partnership with Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners, the country’s goal to deploy up to 15GW of storage by 2030, and how long-duration and non-lithium technologies could transform Europe’s grid flexibility. The conversation also delves into optimisation, co-location, and repowering as the next frontier of the energy transition in southern Europe.
This episode was produced and edited by Leonard Müller.
