The operation is to be managed by Future Energy srl, a wholly owned subsidiary of White Energy Group SpA, for: - **Cereal Docks Marghera srl** in Venice; - **Ital Green Oil srl** in San Pietro di Morubio, Verona. ## Investment and contract model The plants are described as being delivered through an energy-service formula combined with an EPC model, including performance guarantees, while Future Energy assumes the financing burden. The article states that total investments exceed **€4 million**. The headline identifies an ESCo investment of **€4.3 million**. ## Technical interventions At the San Pietro di Morubio site, the project includes: - a new **AB Energy Ecomax 2.0** cogeneration plant; - electrical capacity of **2.0 MWe**; - steam supply through an integration boiler. At Marghera, the existing **4.4 MWe** cogeneration plant, including a duplex boiler for steam production, is to be fully upgraded. ## Expected energy and emissions results The article states that the projects are expected to: - reduce the cost of supplying electricity, thermal energy, and potentially refrigeration energy; - save more than **1,000 toe** of primary energy and fossil fuels; - reduce emissions by more than **2,000 tons of CO2**; - produce electricity and heat efficiently in combination. ## Statements from the companies Gianluigi Mele, CEO of Whitenergy, describes the project as support for Cereal Docks Group through directly financed cogeneration interventions using the EnPC formula. Franco Asuni, Chief Business Development at Whitenergy, highlights cogeneration as a technology for reducing industry dependence on the electricity grid. Salvatore Fadda, head of Whitenergy's O&M area and administrator of Future Energy, cites the expected reduction of more than 2,000 tons of CO2. Mauro Fanin, CEO of Cereal Docks Group, emphasizes energy savings, lower polluting emissions, and rapid implementation without slowing normal plant operations.
