Mr. Stefano Neri, CEO of TerniEnergia stated:

Through the new company, TerniEnergia and Roma Gas & Power intend to jointly develop standardized and replicable projects, ensuring the scalability of the energy saving business. We are satisfied to confirm, even in the energy efficiency market, the partnership policy that has been one of the reasons for our success in the renewable energy sector. The model developed, in fact, will allow Ant Energy to be activethroughout the supply chain of preparing and implementing projects: from the initial negotiations with potential customers (including through cross-selling strategies with RGP’s loyal customers) to energy audits, to the proposal of technical and commercial offers, up to the realization in EPC (engineering, procurement and construction) of the interventions and the financing through innovative tools ((from third-party financing to securitization). TerniEnergia may also contribute to the JV industrial results embedding its proprietary technologies with a high rate of innovation”.  

Mr. Maurizio Argirò, CEO of Roma Gas & Power, adds:

“The joint venture will enable the implementation of energy saving projects on industrial facilities on a corporate and private customer base, and on public infrastructure, integrating the respective skills. We can now go to market with an integrated and comprehensive offer of energy efficiency for the supply of technology services, procurement and supply of commodities and financial instruments, overcoming problems that have so far slowed down a real market development of the energy saving in Italy. We are confident that the strong market penetration and strength of the position in the energy markets of Roma Gas & Power joined with the TerniEnergia industrial and technological track record will be a driving force for the growth of the business. We may start, in fact, from an already established base of loyal customers and from the strong relationships with the Public Administration, to substain the market development and proposal, assuming a primary role in the promotion of project initiatives and give life to an integrated operator throughout the energy efficiency supply chain, thereby contributing to the objectives of the “climate and energy package 20-20-20″ launched by the European Union following the Kyoto Protocol. Suffice it to say that according to Enea, if were launched energy saving interventions only on the Italian public buildings, we could have investment of about 8 billion Euros and create added value for 14 billion Euros and the creation of hundreds of thousands of jobs, in addition to saving 400 million euro per year just in energy bills”.
