Enviromena energises its second site in Italy ahead of further projects due to commence in early 2024

A second solar project in Italy has gone live in just four months as leading clean energy solutions company, Enviromena, continues to grow its solar portfolio across Europe.

The development in Alliste, in the Province of Lecce, Apulia, has now been energised and follows Enviromena’s first project in the town of Collepasso, which went live in July.

These two multi million-pound solar farm projects are anticipated to generate a combined 4,000MWh of green energy per annum. They have been successfully registered for the FER 1 Decree incentive, introduced by the Italian government in 2019 to incentivise renewable energy projects installed on industrial graded land. They have both secured an attractive incentive tariff (per MWh generated) which is fixed for 20 years.

Enviromena’s Alliste and Collepasso sites are part of a larger pipeline of projects across mainland Italy and Sardinia. Enviromena has already received permission to begin building a 6MWp project in Tuscany in early 2024, with a further 150MW of projects in Italy well advanced in the planning process.

Gary Hales, Enviromena’s Chief Operating Officer, said: “These sites are tremendously important for us and we are delighted to that our portfolio of Italian sites are starting to go live. Energising both Alliste and Collepasso in just four months goes to show our commitment to continuing the expansion of Enviromena’s presence into the broader European market.”

He added: “The two sites in Lecce form a small part of Enviromena’s much larger Italian pipeline of solar projects and I am proud of our team and our partners’ demonstrated ability to deliver large scale renewable energy solutions across the continent.”

Enviromena is a fast-growing clean energy solutions company and has more than 2 GW of active solar farms and battery energy storage systems in development and operation throughout the UK and Europe.
