A collaboration agreement between Plenitude and Volvo will lead to the installation of solar systems

Plenitude (Eni) and Volvo Trucks Italy have signed an agreement for the installation of 5 new photovoltaic systems that will help to supply with renewable energy, starting this year, as many Volvo Truck Center dealers in Northern Italy.

The project will have a production capacity of 550,000 kWh per year and will allow Volvo Trucks Italia to improve the energy efficiency of their offices with a view to greater sustainability.

The production of renewable energy will allow to avoid CO2 emissions of around 220 tons per year.

The agreement provides, in addition to the installation, also the management and maintenance of the systems for the first 5 years and the development of a continuous monitoring system of performance.

The systems will be installed at the Volvo Truck Centers in the cities of Bergamo (Headquarters), Venice, Brescia, Turin and Padua.

Pasquale Cuzzola, Retail Italian Market Director of Plenitude, said: “This partnership is in line with the strategy of Plenitude to create value through the energy transition and to have net zero CO2 emissions by 2040 across the entire value chain, including those of our customers.

We are therefore pleased to make our renewable solutions and technologically advanced systems available to the Volvo Trucks Italia offices, which will allow for a more efficient and sustainable use of energy and also to reduce the related costs”.

Giovanni Dattoli, Managing Director of Volvo Trucks Italia, commented: “Volvo Trucks is fully investing in sustainability and this project in Italy it fits fully into our decarbonisation strategy, which concerns not only the vehicles we market but also the locations in which we operate.

We are delighted with the agreement with Plenitude, an excellent partner who will accompany us on a virtuous path, allowing us to make a concrete and sustainable contribution to the environment".
