Enel X will create a new project. at the Leonardo da Vinci international airport of Fiumicino the most important in the world. large self-consumption photovoltaic plant in a European airport. The company of the Enel Group, in fact, it was; in fact awarded a European public tender announced by Aeroporti di Roma and will bring; forward this ambitious project in collaboration with Circet, a company specialized in infrastructure development.
THE PROJECT
Entering more in the details of the construction of the photovoltaic system, Enel X announces that it will be; built parallel to runway number 3 of Fiumicino airport. The plant will cover the an area of 340 thousand square meters with a power of 22 MWp, producing approximately 32 GWh of renewable energy per year.
According to estimates, once operational and fully operational, the system will avoid the release into the atmosphere of over 11 thousand tons of CO2. The photovoltaic system will be composed of about 55,000 photovoltaic panelsin addition to the housing structures, cabins and cable ducts " It has been designed considering the latest technologies; advances in the industry for perfect adaptation of installation requirements for structures of this type”.
The project also includes the installation of a 10 MWh storage system, built using electric vehicle batteries that have reached their second life cycle. The accumulation system will contribute to the to cover any evening peaks in energy demand at the airport.
Enel X announces that the works will begin by the end of 2023 and will be completed in 2024. Francesco Venturini, head of Enel X, commented:
The construction of the new photovoltaic plant, the largest in the whole largest in Europe, it is; a significant step in the now consolidated collaboration with Aeroporti di Roma. We are facing an intervention in the airport sector never seen before which, thanks to our leadership in the creation of advanced technologies in the energy sector, will contribute to the development of the airport sector. largely to reduce emissions from Fiumicino Airport, making it even more; a worldwide excellence.
