The focus of the paper is to identify for the first time the most adequate energy storage systems (ESS) applicable in the central or bulk generation of the electricity sector in Albania.

The situation in the development of the energy sector in Albania 2.1. Electricity production for 2023 8,796 GWh of electricity, almost 11% more than the energy consumption. increase in production by 25.6% compared to 2022, where it was 7,003 GWh.
In addition to eliminating the electricity deficit and taking electrification to new sectors, Albania can increase its potential to unlock new industries and investment using clean energy. The country can explore opportunities to produce green hydrogen through solar and wind power.
Opportunities for renewables, and especially for solar and wind energy, are extensive in Albania. According to IRENA’s Renewables Readiness Assessment report (2021), the solar radiation is very high throughout most of its territory, with the country enjoying some of Europe’s highest number of sunshine hours per year.
Changing weather patterns over the years have forced the country to import energy to cover domestic needs, as a lack of storage capacity requires Albania to sell its generated power during peak months of production.
Currently, the number of private Albanian companies that have become part of the Albanian Electricity Stock Exchange has reached 12. Meanwhile, together with the 5 Albanian public energy companies, which were the first to join, the total number of entities goes to 17.
The government of Albania seems to have already acknowledged the need for a diversified energy production mix. The Minister of Energy and Infrastructure, Belinda Balluku, has repeatedly highlighted that one of the key pillars of focus is the national strategy on energy diversification.
