On July 16th, Sphera Energy participated in the Battery Business & Development Forum 2025, where our CEO, Mahael Fedele, joined the panel titled “Choosing the Best Path for BESS ROI in Italy: MACSE, Capacity Market, or Merchant Strategies.”
During the session, the group shared key insights on Italy’s emergence as one of Europe’s most vibrant energy storage markets, supported by a strong regulatory environment.
The forum, covered by ESS News and PV Magazine, featured in-depth discussions on investment models across Europe, with a focus on comparing merchant and contracted revenue stream approaches. While Italy’s contracted MACSE auctions mechanism and the alternative capacity-market plus merchant option offer flexibility, they also present a different set of challenges for developers and investors.
Beyond technical debates, the event was an excellent opportunity to exchange ideas with industry leaders and explore how regulation, innovation and collaboration are shaping Italy’s journey toward a clean-energy future.
