據石油和天然氣管道新聞網7月23日消息，埃尼集團通過旗下子公司埃尼新能源公司在新業務部門“能源演變”下運營，已開始在意大利Volpiano新建總容量為18兆瓦的光伏電站發電。

該項目是在埃尼位于Volpiano的油庫內開發的，是“Progetto Italia”項目的一部分。該計劃于2016年啟動，將埃尼工業資產中的棕地重新開發為可再生能源工廠，為該地區創造了新的機會。

該電站建立在大約32公頃的工業區上，能產生超過27千兆瓦的能量，其中10%將向埃尼集團的站點提供能源，從而將國家電網的用電量減少逾50%。剩下的能源將提供給市場,沒有受益于激勵機制。

此外，這一舉措將防止工廠在使用期內排放約37萬噸二氧化碳，因此有助于實現意大利能源和氣候綜合國家計劃的脫碳目標。

埃尼集團在可再生能源領域的戰略目標是，到2023年實現風能和太陽能裝機容量超過3千兆瓦、2025年達到5千兆瓦的平衡和多樣化的全球投資組合。

Eni starts production at solar plant in Italy

Eni, through its subsidiary Eni New Energy, operating under the new business unit Energy Evolution, has started power production from the new photovoltaic plant in Volpiano, Italy with a total capacity of 18 MW.

The project was developed inside Eni’s Fuel Depot in Volpiano and is part of the “Progetto Italia”. This scheme, launched in 2016, redevelops brownfield sites that are part of Eni’s industrial assets into renewable energy plants, creating new opportunities in the district.

The plant, built on an industrial area of approximately 32 hectares, will generate over 27 GWh, 10 per cent of which will supply energy to Eni’s site, reducing the use of electricity from the national grid by more than 50 per cent. The remaining energy will be supplied to the market, without benefiting from incentive mechanisms.

In addition, this initiative will prevent the emission of around 370,000 tonnes of CO2 over the service life of the plant, therefore contributing to the decarbonisation goals of Italy’s Integrated National Plan for Energy and Climate.

Eni’s strategy in the renewable energy sector aims at reaching a balanced and diversified global portfolio of over 3 GW of installed wind and solar power by 2023 and of 5 GW by 2025.
