Sonnedix, a global renewable energy producer, is proud to announce the inauguration of "Aprilia 1," a new photovoltaic plant located in Aprilia, near Rome. The project represents an important milestone for Sonnedix in Italy. With a production capacity of 50,000 MWh per year, the plant has the capacity to supply clean energy to more than 16,000 households. Spanning an area of 30 hectares and equipped with more than 50,000 photovoltaic modules, "Aprilia 1" contributes significantly to the reduction of CO2 emissions, saving more than 25 tons of carbon dioxide every year thanks to solar energy.
With a capacity of 27.9 MWp, this project is not only Sonnedix’s largest plant in the country, but also a model of sustainability and innovation. "Aprilia 1" was built with the full support of local authorities, highlighting the importance of public-private partnerships for renewable energy development.
Mario Volpe, Sonnedix’s Representative Director for Italy and Head of Growth, Southern Europe, said: "Today, Sonnedix has almost 500 MW operational capacity in Italy and the goal is to reach 1 GW operational capacity in the next 18 months. We are pioneers in the development of agrisolar plants, which combine green energy production with agricultural activities, and we want to demonstrate how innovation can integrate with tradition to create a sustainable future.”
In addition to clean energy production, the “Aprilia 1” project also has a positive impact on the local community. In fact, a fully public green space and a children’s playground have been created in the municipal area in connection with the plant, underscoring Sonnedix's commitment to sustainable and integrated development.
Sonnedix continues to expand its presence in Italy and contribute to the global energy transition. With "Aprilia 1," Sonnedix confirms its role as a leader in the renewable energy sector, providing safe, affordable and sustainable energy.
