This week on Energy Unplugged, we’re delighted to welcome Mariglen Nora, Head of the Green Energy Segment at Elevion Group, joining Casimir Lorenz, Aurora’s Market Lead for Central Europe & the Nordics, for a deep dive into how European renewable and flexibility markets are evolving across Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, the UK, and beyond.
Mariglen oversees Elevion’s portfolio of specialist companies spanning PV, battery storage, biomethane, and other clean technologies, and serves on the boards of BELECTRIC, BELECTRIC GREENVEST, and EnergyShift. Drawing on extensive experience at Elevion and CEZ Group, he offers a granular, cross-market perspective on how utility-scale PV, BESS, biomethane, and grid constraints are shaping investment priorities across Europe.
You will learn about:
- How Germany’s PV boom is now shifting toward co-located solar + battery projects, and how grid constraints are shaping investor behavior.
- Italy’s leadership in biomethane, the role of the MACSE mechanism in making battery storage bankable, and the country’s strong mix of renewable incentives.
- The complementary relationship between PV, batteries, and biomethane: batteries for fast, short-term flexibility, and biomethane for dispatchable, long-duration power, creating a more resilient energy mix.
- How rising renewable penetration across Europe is driving hybrid project development, while grid access and regulatory frameworks remain key bottlenecks.
