Ingenium, a renewable energy producer, has set a goal to reach 6 GW of renewable installed capacity by 2030. This objective includes full vertical integration, from project development to energy commercialization, positioning the company as a key player in the energy transition.

“In the short term, the main goal is to successfully complete the projects currently under development, thereby actively contributing to the energy transition, always with deep respect for the environment and a detailed analysis of the impact our installations may have on it,” states Ingenium.

Since its founding, Ingenium has consolidated its presence in Italy, where in 2021 it formalized its subsidiary, Ingenium Renewables SRL. “We identified enormous potential in the expanding Italian renewable energy sector and decided to enter to become strategic players,” says the company in an interview with Energía Estratégica España.

In this market, the company has been a pioneer in obtaining authorizations for the construction of solar projects, solidifying its position in the region. Currently, the company operates a portfolio of photovoltaic projects totalling 1 GW and over 2800 MWh of storage capacity across key regions such as Lazio and Sicily.

Moreover, Ingenium’s growth includes other European markets, with developments in Spain and Croatia in the fields of photovoltaic projects, storage, and biomethane.

Energy Storage

A key pillar of Ingenium’s strategy is storage technology using advanced BESS (Battery Energy Storage System) battery systems.

With a recent agreement with Endurance Motive, Ingenium has secured competitive solutions that address the decentralization of electricity generation systems, ensuring the stability of the electricity supply in the grid and making it more durable and efficient in integrating renewables.

“The growth of renewable energies is accompanied by the need to provide additional services to guarantee grid stability. Therefore, we not only see interest in this technology, but we consider it indispensable in the Utility-Scale segment. In commercial and industrial applications, efficiency and savings are the two key factors driving storage adoption, making it a secure and profitable investment,” the company states.

Agrivoltaic Technology

Italy presents a favourable scenario for the growth of solar energy, driven by the objectives of the National Integrated Energy and Climate Plan (PNIEC), which aims to reach 80 GW of photovoltaic capacity by 2030.

In line with this, and with the development of the Agricultural Decree regulation, the Italian government seeks to promote agrivoltaic technology.

“Agrivoltaic energy is showing remarkable growth. This innovative symbiosis allows for dual land use, combining clean and sustainable energy generation with agricultural production. This integration optimizes land use, especially in regions with a strong agricultural tradition and high solar potential,” they detail.

The company adds that it adopted this technology some time ago and that almost its entire portfolio of projects under development is focused on agrivoltaic installations, thus following the policies promoted by the Italian government and the European Union.
