The Malta PHES energy storage system is built upon well-established principles in thermodynamics and uses conventional components that have been present in power plants for hundreds of years. Electricity from the grid is used to heat molten salt and cool a chilled liquid. In these forms, energy can be efficiently stored for long durations.
Malta has developed a long-duration energy storage solution that leverages steam-based heat pump technology to provide a cost-efficient, flexible, and integration-ready option for utility and industrial clients.
Interconnect Malta is also working on the Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) Project, a grid-scale electricity storage system that is being planned as an important contribution to the attainment of Malta's decarbonisation commitments, in line with the EU's Green Deal objectives.
Whether integrated with energy-intensive industries, generation assets, or deployed as a standalone system, Malta's Steam Energy Management and Storage (SEMS) fully replaces the attributes of fossil-fired energy, delivering identical synchronous generation for grid reliability without emissions.
During the visit, Enemalta management explained how the company is implementing a €90 million reinforcement programme to improve network resilience while providing additional capacity to meet the requirements of the country's growing investment in grid-connected renewables.
Malta delivers outsized, quantifiable commercial value to a diverse range of customers, empowering them with clean and dispatchable power and heat to achieve their decarbonization and reliability goals. We're focused on helping to build a more sustainable future.
