In 2018, Albania adopted its National Energy Sector Strategy, which examined various energy development scenarios and set forth a series of key indicators and objectives that will shape Albanian's energy sector over the period from 2018 to 2030 (Table 2). Most notably, the strategy stipulated a 42% share of renewable energy in the TPES by 2030.
Opportunities for the deployment of solar energy are extensive. Albania's solar insolation is very high throughout most of its territory at more than 1 500 kWh/m2 annually, with peaks of 1 753 kWh/m2 annually, particularly in the western part of the country.
Chief Executive Officer Bruno Papaj said the firm signed a memorandum of understanding with an Indian investor on the construction of Albania's first lithium ion battery plant. The facility is planned to come online within two years, with 100 MW in annual capacity.
Furthermore, the country is exposed to drought and often turns to emergency imports. Tirana-based Vega Solar, which develops, installs and maintains rooftop solar power plants, saw an opportunity to contribute to diversification with battery energy storage systems.
The focus of the paper is to identify for the first time the most adequate energy storage systems (ESS) applicable in the central or bulk generation of the electricity sector in Albania.
