Why Energy Storage Matters for Vatican City

Imagine powering a city-state with 100% renewable energy – that's the Vatican's ambitious goal. As the smallest independent country globally, its energy grid faces unique challenges. Did you know the Vatican's annual electricity consumption equals about 5,500 MWh? That's equivalent to powering 500 average European homes for a year!

Key Challenges in Vatican's Energy Transition

• Limited land area (0.49 km²) for solar/wind installations
• Protection of historical architecture
• 24/7 power demand for critical facilities
• Integration with Italy's national grid
