Energy Storage
Storage (including batteries) charges and discharges into the same Albanian market chain: ALPEX, nominations, balancing group and imbalance.

Why it matters
A battery is both load and generation. In Albania it still needs a market position, a nomination and a BRP.
Charge/discharge decisions are taken against the ALPEX curve and imbalance risk. Licensing of storage is an ERE/law topic, PDF needed for the exact class.
How it works
The desk plans charge and discharge by hour, nominates the resulting net, and faces imbalance if meters disagree.
Whether storage has a dedicated license or sits under generation/aggregation is in the official acts, not assumed here.
