6 FAQs about [Austria macse bess]
What technology will MACSE auction fund?
With three different technology providers on the panel, it made sense to unpick the topic of technologies for the auction too. The MACSE auction has stipulated that 90% of the funding will go to either lithium-ion battery energy storage system (BESS) or pumped hydro energy storage (PHES), with 10% allocated for ‘other technologies’.
What is MACSE policy support?
The catalyst for this is the implementation of the new MACSE policy support mechanism, offering 15 year indexed contracts on up to 100% of asset capacity. MACSE is a game changer. 15 year contracts provide key downside risk protection for infrastructure investors.
How will MACSE tender targets affect Bess investors?
MACSE tender targets will adapt to the zonal need for storage, but market inefficiencies in predicting fundamental value drivers (e.g., RES buildout, lack of flexibility, interconnection constraints) will likely create locational merchant upside for BESS investors.
When will the next MACSE auction take place?
The inaugural MACSE auction is likely to happen in the first half of 2025. The next Capacity Market auctions for 2026-2027-2028 will now likely follow the first MACSE auctions, after resolution of the legal review now happening on the results of the Capacity Market auction for 2025 capacity delivery.
Does Terna have a MACSE target?
This has reduced the need for procurement of utility storage capacity mainly in the South, resulting in lower MACSE volume targets. However, Terna still has a substantial procurement target of 50 GWh of storage capacity by 2030 under the MACSE scheme.
Is MACSE a good investment?
MACSE is a game changer. 15 year contracts provide key downside risk protection for infrastructure investors. They also ensure highly bankable projects given a strong credit counterparty (the government backed system operator Terna). There have been some important updates this month that impact investors targeting MACSE support.
