Enel is set to partake in trials with its Potenza Pietragalla wind farm, located towards the south of Italy, and the San Fiorano hydropower plant in the north of the country.
The firm’s wind farm was the first in Italy to feature an integrated storage system, which has 2MW/2MWh of storage.
OSMOSE will allow Enel to enhance the system, enabling real-time transmission supply of grid regulation services to Terna, and Italian transmission system operator.
The project will also encourage facilities to coordinate with renewable plants and industrial customers to create smart management.
The hydropower plant will test new ways of managing secondary power regulation between Italy and Slovenia.
