Innovatec e SENEC siglano accordo per 100 MW di impianti fotovoltaici in Italia
Innovatec Group, through its subsidiary Elios Power, and Senc Italia, part of the German group EnBw, have signed an agreement to develop and build photovoltaic plants with a total capacity of 100 MW. The agreement, according to a statement, includes SENEC’s participation in both the project portfolio holding company and the investments required for the authorization process, subject to a positive due diligence. Elios will handle the activities to obtain the construction permits for the plants, while SENEC will oversee the entire construction process on an EPC basis until the plants are connected to the national grid. The completion of the projects is expected to take place by 2024.
“We have an ambitious goal, which we have shared with a partner of undisputed excellence like SENEC, a European leader in the energy sector, with a young and equally ambitious management,” says Antonio De Tata, Vice President of Innovatec Power. “To date, we have started the authorization process for over 450 MW of photovoltaic plants and we aim to achieve the same goal for at least the next three years,” he adds.
This close collaboration between two leading Italian photovoltaic companies confirms their role of excellence in the industry and their common desire to contribute decisively to decarbonization in Italy. “The signing of this agreement with Innovatec is a source of great satisfaction for our company,” says Vito Zongoli, CEO of SENEC Italia. “SENEC is a reference point in the industry internationally, and a partnership with a significant group like Innovatec will only strengthen this role. We firmly believe that the key to a sustainable energy future lies in photovoltaics and energy independence, and with Innovatec, we will make a strong contribution to achieving European sustainability goals by 2030. With these projects, we can also promote the development of renewable energy communities, where citizens and companies share and optimize the use of green energy, promoting energy transition and empowering local communities for a more sustainable future for all.”
