Capalo AI to optimize and trade E energija group’s 120 MWh Vilnius BESS - Lithuania’s largest private battery energy storage project
Helsinki, 1.7.2025—E energija group and Capalo AI have signed an agreement to trade and optimize the 120 MWh Vilnius Battery Energy Storage System (BESS), currently under construction near Vilnius. Scheduled to be operational by the end of 2025, the facility will increase Lithuania’s national storage capacity by roughly 50 percent and represents the country’s first large-scale commercial battery plant.
Once commissioned, the asset will be integrated into the Capalo Zeus VPP (Virtual Power Plant) and participate in all Lithuanian balancing services, FCR, aFRR, and mFRR, as well as Nord Pool’s spot and intraday wholesale markets. Capalo Zeus VPP’s fully automated, self-learning algorithms will manage the battery’s optimization and trading to maximize its lifetime value and revenue stacking.
The Vilnius BESS will play a key role in managing production and consumption spikes in the country. By delivering fast‑response balancing, the battery will help stabilize the electricity grid and strengthen the Baltic states’ energy independence.
“Intermittent generation is a growing challenge for consumers and the grid alike. Partnering with Capalo AI ensures our Vilnius BESS will capture every market opportunity while providing critical flexibility for Lithuania’s energy system,” said Gediminas Uloza, CEO of E energija group.
“The 120MWh Vilnius BESS is a major milestone for grid flexibility in the Baltics. Access to all markets combined with AI-driven optimization is crucial to maximize the battery’s value in a volatile and rapidly changing market environment,” said Henri Taskinen, CEO of Capalo AI.
