As announced in the new 2017-2021 Strategic Plan, "we have planned even more substantial investments in projects for the development of the national electricity grid and interconnection with foreign countries - added Del Fante - which will help the full integration of renewable sources into the grid and while enabling security of supply. Our development strategy is oriented towards the choice of increasingly technological and efficient solutions, which will make it possible to generate even greater benefits for the environment, as well as reduce energy costs for businesses and households”.
