Lithuania’s Ministries of Energy and Environment have approved an additional €37 million to expand capital expenditure support for energy storage projects. This funding supplements an existing €102 million fund managed by the Environmental Project Management Agency (EPMA) during its first call, which closed on June 17, 2025. The call attracted 50 applications, requesting a total of EUR 197.86 million, nearly double the initially allocated amount. The grant scheme is part of a larger €180 million energy transition support package funded by the European Union. It operates under the Temporary Crisis and Transition Framework (TCTF), which is launched to help EU member states enhance their energy infrastructure in light of the regional impacts of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
The Lithuanian program offers capital expenditure grants of up to 30% for battery energy storage system (BESS) projects ranging from 15 MW to 150 MW. The main objective is to enable these systems to provide balancing services for the national transmission system operator, Litgrid. This additional funding will accelerate deployment in response to increasing investor interest and support Lithuania in achieving its clean energy targets, which include 1.5 GW/4.4 GWh of new energy storage capacity by 2028.
Trina Storage, the battery energy storage system (BESS) division of solar energy firm Trinasolar, has announced the deployment of three new battery storage projects in Lithuania, totalling 90 MW/180 MWh. These installations will be located in Anyksciai, Skuodas, and Jonava, and will be executed in partnership with EPC company Stiemo. Deliveries for the systems are scheduled to begin in December 2025, with commercial operations expected to start in mid-2026. According to Trinasolar, these projects mark the company’s entry into the Lithuanian and Eastern European energy storage market, with plans for additional multi-GWh deployments over the next two to three years.
Lithuania’s energy storage market has gained momentum following the Baltic states’ complete disconnection from the Russian power grid and their synchronisation with mainland Europe earlier in 2025. This transition has highlighted the need for grid flexibility, making energy storage a central component of the country’s infrastructure strategy. Litgrid has already started transmission-level storage projects in collaboration with the system integrator Fluence.
Recent market activity highlights this growth. In July 2025, UAB Karjerų Linija and the state-owned utility Ignitis Group invested in utility-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) developments. Earlier in the year, the independent power producer E Energija Group began construction on a large-scale project, indicating broader market engagement.
