INDEPENDENT
POWER PRODUCER
From our projects in phases of development, we choose those in
which to invest directly, without ever losing sight of our main
goal: to contribute to a target country’s industrial growth and
energy development. For this reason, we choose the most
suitable industrial and financial partners and differentiate the
investment on the basis of the specific peculiarities and needs of
the selected areas.
TARGET IPP: 500 MW
ENERGY
DEVELOPER
We develop projects for the production of clean energy, with an
efficient and long term vision. We choose the target countries
by carefully assessing both the demographic and social
situations and also the industrial growth and the relative
energetic needs. The projects that we develop generally have a
power range between 10 and 50 MW each and embrace all the
genres of renewable sources, producing energy from
photovoltaic, wind, geothermal, biomass and mini hydro
systems. We approach projects in a flexible, systematic, and
competent way at every step of the production chain: from the
generation of the opportunity until the engineering study, from
completion of the licensing phase to the definition of every
single aspect bound to the procurement of debt capital and the
analysis of necessary risks for the completion of the project.
