The system of battery storage facilities, designed to ensure the instantaneous energy reserve for Lithuania, will comprise four battery farms in Vilnius, Šiauliai, Alytus and Utena with 312 battery cubes – 78 in each farm. The total combined capacity of the energy storage system is to be integrated into the Lithuanian grid by Energy Cells.
Located near Vilnius, this project will be the country’s first commercial battery storage facility and is expected to increase Lithuania’s total storage capacity by approximately 50%. The system is scheduled to begin operations by the end of 2025.
The remaining battery parks will receive the energy storage units in September‘, said R. Štilinis. The energy storage facility system of 312 battery cubes - 78 each in battery parks in Vilnius, Šiauliai and Alytus and Utena regions – will provide Lithuania with an instantaneous energy reserve.
The total value of the project, which is meant to provide Lithuania with an instantaneous electricity reserve and the ability to work independently in isolated mode, will reach 109 million euros. The operator of the battery system is Energy Cells, which is 100 per cent owned by the EPSO-G group of energy transmission and exchange companies.
The total combined capacity of the energy storage system is to be integrated into the Lithuanian grid by Energy Cells. Along with specially made transformers and other equipment, all 312 battery cells have already been installed and connected in the battery parks at the transformer substations.
E-energija Group has commenced construction on Lithuania’s largest battery energy storage system (BESS) project, the 120MWh Vilnius BESS. This facility, which is set to become Lithuania’s first commercial battery storage site, will significantly increase the country’s storage capacity by around 50%.
The global residential solar storage and inverter market is experiencing rapid expansion, with demand increasing by over 300% in the past three years. Home energy storage solutions now account for approximately 35% of all new residential solar installations worldwide. North America leads with 38% market share, driven by homeowner energy independence goals and federal tax credits that reduce total system costs by 26-30%. Europe follows with 32% market share, where standardized home storage designs have cut installation timelines by 55% compared to custom solutions. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 45% CAGR, with manufacturing innovations reducing system prices by 18% annually. Emerging markets are adopting residential storage for backup power and energy cost reduction, with typical payback periods of 4-7 years. Modern home installations now feature integrated systems with 10-30kWh capacity at costs below $700/kWh for complete residential energy solutions.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving home solar storage and inverter performance while reducing costs. Next-generation battery management systems maintain optimal performance with 40% less energy loss, extending battery lifespan to 15+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $1,200/kW to $650/kW since 2022. Smart integration features now allow home systems to operate as virtual power plants, increasing homeowner savings by 35% through time-of-use optimization and grid services. Safety innovations including multi-stage protection and thermal management systems have reduced insurance premiums by 25% for solar storage installations. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple battery additions at just $600/kWh for incremental storage. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with residential projects typically achieving payback in 5-8 years depending on local electricity rates and incentive programs. Recent pricing trends show standard home systems (5-10kWh) starting at $8,000 and premium systems (15-20kWh) from $12,000, with financing options available for homeowners.
