Security of Supply

To ensure electricity grid stability while increasing Malta''s use of renewable energy sources, the Energy & Water Agency has identified the need for both the grid operator, Enemalta, and owners of home power generators (such as solar panels) to invest in supporting infrastructure.

Energy in Malta

As of 2017, most of the electricity generated in Malta was from natural gas, with oil as a backup. [3] Natural gas has only been used for generation on Malta since CCGT systems were installed at Delimara Power Station in 2015, [4] before which oil was the main fuel used. Oil has been the primary fuel for electricity generation for many decades before 2015, although Malta also

The energy to power a sustainable Malta

Until now, in Malta, energy is generated and consumed simultaneously – therefore, balancing demand with supply is done without any buffer. To continue increasing flexibility in our energy system, we are working on Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) projects so that for the first time, energy can be stored and later used at different times.

THE NEED FOR ENERGY STORAGE

How the Malta System Works 1. Collects. Energy is collected from solar, wind, or the grid. 2. Converts. The electricity drives a heat pump, which converts electrical energy into thermal energy – both hot and cold. 3. Stores. The heat is stored in molten salt, and the cold is stored in antifreeze coolant. 4. Regenerates. The thermal energy is

4 FAQs about [Malta homepower energy system]

How secure is Malta's energy supply?

The security of Malta’s energy supply is a key area of focus for us. Being a small island, Malta has a small electricity supply system and only a single electricity supplier (Enemalta plc) and depends heavily on imported energy sources. Malta also has no natural gas pipeline interconnection with neighbouring countries.

What is Ewa's vision for Malta's power sector?

EWA’s vision for Malta’s power sector foresees sustained growth of generation from renewable sources, powered by indigenous onshore solar PV installations, large-scale offshore renewable technologies, such as floating wind and solar, and green energy imported over interconnections with neighbouring countries.

How has Malta changed its energy mix?

In recent years, Malta has transformed its energy mix used for electricity generation from one based on heavy fuel oil and gasoil to a more sustainable combination of natural gas, electricity imports via the Malta-Italy subsea connection, and increased use of renewable energy sources.

Can Malta import hydrogen from Italy?

Malta is also actively studying the possibility of importing hydrogen from Italy through the Melita TransGas Pipeline project, which will not only end Malta’s isolation from the trans-European gas network but will also provide an opportunity to import renewable gases, such as green hydrogen or biomethane, once the market develops.
