Telis Energy, a leading pan-European renewable energy development platform, has officially unveiled its Italian subsidiary, Telis Energy Italy, with a strategic focus on advancing Battery Energy and Hybrid projects. The company aims to achieve a substantial 3 GW pipeline of such projects by the year 2030.
Founded in November 2022 and supported by global investment firm Carlyle, Telis Energy is committed to building a robust 10 GW renewable energy pipeline by 2030, spread across various subsidiaries operating in Europe’s key markets. With a headquarters in London and an expanding presence in France, Germany, Italy, and the UK, Telis emphasizes leveraging both international scale and local expertise to drive its ambitious agenda in the renewable energy sector.
Telis Energy Italy marks a significant milestone for the company, positioning it strategically within one of Europe’s most vibrant markets for Photovoltaic (PV) and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS). Spearheaded by Marco Petrone, a seasoned expert with 15 years of experience in the Italian and international renewable energy sectors, Telis Energy Italy aims to catalyze Italy’s transition towards greater energy independence and sustainability.
Speaking about the venture, Adrien Pinsard, CEO of Telis Energy Group, stated, “Italy has considerable potential and a significant need for energy storage and will play an integral role in Europe’s energy transition. Marco comes with a fantastic pedigree and an entrepreneurial mindset- the team has already identified some compelling opportunities and is well-placed to execute.”
Marco Petrone, CEO of Telis Energy Italy, echoed Pinsard’s sentiments, commenting, “ We are ambitious but confident. Thanks to the experience and network of our team, we already have originated a pipeline of more than 1000 MWh BESS standalone projects and more than 100 MWp of Hybrid projects in specific regions in Italy, after a detailed assessment of the grid and point of connections and an accurate screening of the project’s lands, selected to minimize the projects’ risk.”
