Lithuania Sets Course for 1.7 GW / 4 GWh Grid Battery Buildout

ree

Lithuania has completed its flagship storage procurement and plans to deploy 1.7 GW / 4 GWh of energy storage to strengthen grid flexibility, resilience, and reliability, the Ministry of Energy confirmed. Acting energy minister Žygimantas Vaičiūnas said installing over 4,000 MWh of storage is a “significant step” for integrating renewables and stabilising electricity prices, noting strong investor interest and the catalytic role of state support.


An order approving financing was signed this week. The initial February call drew 50+ applications totalling €197 million, nearly twice the original budget, prompting an extra €37.33 million allocation in July. The ministry had first earmarked €102 million to back ≥800 MWh of systems connected directly to the transmission network by 2028;


Tuesday’s update confirms the programme will now deliver 1.7 GW / 4 GWh with a combined project value exceeding €840 million. Public subsidies are expected to average 14.7% of total investment.


Support targets facilities of 30–300 MWh providing transmission-level balancing. Grants can cover up to 30% of eligible costs, capped at €150,000 per MWh; eligible beneficiaries are legal entities excluding financial and credit institutions. A supplementary procurement round is planned.


This scale-up builds on Lithuania’s first grid-connected project in 2020—a 200 MWh system operated by Energy Cells and delivered by Siemens Energy and Fluence.
