Life Company

Energy, water and environment with a circular use of resources

We deal with energy, water and environment thanks to services essential for the quality of life of people, communities, towns and cities.

With investments specifically for the development of Italy's energy transition and the creation of models of circular economy in the areas we serve, we are committed to making responsible use of the sun, water and the wind to produce energy from renewable sources, and to regenerating the potential of every resource, from waste to heat, so as to speed up the process of decarbonization in our towns and cities. This is our response to the great environmental challenges: climate change, pollution and wastage.

We work closely with communities, institutions and our customers nationwide, striving each day with our services to offer new generations a more sustainable and resilient future. For them, we promote responsible lifestyles that can have a real impact on our society and on the environment that surrounds us. We thus contribute to fostering a culture of sustainability that makes it possible to look to the future as an opportunity to improve the quality of life for all of us.

With this vision, we go beyond our traditional role as a utility to promote a model which puts the lives of people, of communities and of ecosystems at the core of what we do.

Our being a Life Company is born of this awareness: a company that generates environmental, social and economic value, contributing to the quality of life today and in the future.

Energy

We invest in the infinite energy generated by the sun, water and wind to accelerate decarbonization and help electrify consumption.

Circular Economy

We take care of the areas that we serve with circular solutions: we manage the entire cycle of waste and the water service. We generate and recover heat for the district heating of buildings. We provide services for individual customers and businesses.

Smart infrastructure

We distribute electricity and gas, drinking water and district heating. We provide lighting, connect and design cities and businesses with smart and digital infrastructures.

How we generate value

A unique business model to make the ecological transition a reality

Our transformation enables the ecological transition of the areas in which we operate with two objectives: decarbonization and ending the wastage of resources.

Our future-fit business model takes life from the industrial synergies in the spheres of energy, heat, water and waste which help facilitate:

Electrification of consumption

Investment in the development of the electricity grid, of infrastructures for e-mobility and of facilities for the production of clean energy is fundamental for the reduction of CO2 emissions and for the electrification of consumption.

Recovery of energy, heat and material

The development of plants and infrastructures for the recovery of waste, water, heat and energy has the objective of limiting the wastage of resources that can be regenerated so as to create new value for towns and cities.

Our role in the market

We make a vital contribution to Italy's ecological transition

We play a central role in the Italian market and we seek to reinforce our position with our actions and with an ambitious cycle of investments.

As regards the circular economy, in 2024, we ranked first in

  • the treatment of urban waste, in terms of tonnes of waste treated
  • the recovery of energy from urban waste, in terms of GWh of energy recovered
  • district heating, in terms of m3 heated

As far as the energy transition is concerned, in 2024, we ranked second for:

  • volumes of electricity sold
  • electricity distributed
  • generation in terms of total installed capacity
  • installed capacity from renewable energy sources (hydroelectric, wind, solar and bioenergies)

Our numbers

To invest in the future, you need solid bases

Economic-financial performance and the positive results obtained represent solid bases on which we can build our growth and the development of our role in the spheres of the energy transition and the circular economy.
