Siamo responsabili delle attività di pianificazione, sviluppo e manutenzione della rete di trasmissione nazionale (RTN) nonché della gestione dei flussi di energia elettrica che vi transitano. Ci assicuriamo che l’offerta di energia immessa nella rete sia costantemente uguale alla domanda, ossia ai consumi di elettricità. Il dispacciamento è l’insieme delle attività necessarie a mantenere questo equilibrio, 365 giorni all’anno e 24 ore su 24. Oltre a ciò progettiamo e sviluppiamo la rete seguendo un piano decennale di sviluppo.
Le attività regolate rappresentano circa l’85% del nostro business, ma svolgiamo anche attività non regolate a supporto della transizione energetica, come energy solutions provider e con attività internazionali. Portiamo all’estero le nostre competenze e il know-how tecnologico sviluppato in Italia e lo mettiamo a disposizione degli operatori internazionali per lo sviluppo delle reti elettriche e per la gestione di sistemi complessi, la trasmissione, l’integrazione delle fonti rinnovabili e i sistemi di accumulo.
Stiamo operando in uno scenario di transizione energetica, che significa l’azzeramento delle emissioni di CO2 e di tutte le altre emissioni di gas serra entro il 2050. Si tratta di un processo di trasformazione ineludibile verso un sistema di produzione e consumo di energia sostenibile e decarbonizzato, in cui la generazione elettrica è sempre più decentrata e basata sullo sfruttamento delle fonti rinnovabili di energia.
Svolgiamo un ruolo centrale in questo processo. Da semplice operatore, stiamo diventando gli abilitatori e i registi della transizione energetica, garantendo una sempre migliore integrazione delle fonti rinnovabili e la progressiva decarbonizzazione del sistema. Prevediamo di investire 14 miliardi di euro sulla rete nei prossimi dieci anni, per rendere il sistema efficiente, sostenibile, competitivo e digitalizzato. Una cifra considerevole, se si confronta con i mille miliardi di euro previsti in totale a livello europeo per il Green New Deal, di cui circa la metà sarà investita in settori in cui operiamo e circa 100 miliardi saranno destinati alle reti.
