Top 10 battery manufacturers in Italy in 2024
This article provides a comprehensive insight into the best top 10 battery manufacturers in Italy, presenting details such as their establishment dates, locations, corporate backgrounds, and main product offerings.
The research predicts that Italy’s grid-scale energy storage market will become one of the most active markets in Europe in the coming years. After deploying only 20MW grid-scale battery energy storage systems each year in the past few years, Italy plans to deploy 800 to 900MW grid-scale battery energy storage systems in 2023-2024, ranking second only to the United Kingdom in scale.
As for traction batteries, in recent years, to cope with the increasingly strict emission regulations in Europe, governments and automakers across Europe have been accelerating the electrification process. At present, Europe has become one of the markets with the highest penetration rate of electric vehicles globally. Particularly, the demand for power batteries has surged with the rise of electric vehicles. You can read top 10 European battery manufacturers for more information.
