We were the first in Italy to introduce combined cycle gas technology for our thermoelectric plants in 1992: an efficient and environmentally friendly technology, which guarantees the national electricity system the production flexibility necessary to compensate the intermittency of renewable sources generation.
In 2019 we invested over 670 million euros to realize two state-of-the-art combined-cycle gas-fired thermoelectric plants: in Marghera Levante (Veneto) and Presenzano (Campania). The technology of the two plants will allow a significant reduction of the specific emissions of carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxides compared to the average of the current Italian thermoelectric park.
