Over 7 billion euros to transform Trenitalia's regional fleet, with a clear objective: to reduce energy consumption and reduce CO2 emissionsLeading this green revolution is Mary Giaconia, Regional Business Director of Trenitalia, who emphasized how the group has “always its gaze turned towards the future”. A concrete example? The latest-generation hybrid trains already being tested in Calabria, capable of operating on both electrified and non-electrified lines, reducing emissions and noise, especially near residential areas and during stops at stations. Giaconia spoke about it during Eco, the Festival of Sustainable Mobility and Smart Cities, in the panel “The future of intermodality”.
The FS Group continues to focus on sustainability, adopting up to 97% recyclable materials for its trains. The aim is to encourage the use of the train for both commuters and tourists, thus reducing overall CO2 emissions.
Trenitalia also promotes sustainable tourism, connecting villages and spiritual locations throughout Italy, facilitating travel with intermodal solutions that combine train and bus.
