en.Wedoany.com Reported - On June 26, Italian energy company Edison completed a wind power upgrade project in the Abruzzo region, with an investment exceeding €200 million. The project involved rebuilding and replacing equipment for existing wind power assets in the central mountainous area, reducing the number of turbines while improving power generation efficiency. After commissioning, the annual power generation capacity has increased to approximately 355 GWh, meeting the electricity needs of over 131,000 households.

Edison stated that this wind power upgrade project reduced the number of turbines by approximately 73% and improved per-unit efficiency through new equipment and station renovations. Some equipment came from Vestas' factory in Italy. The project reflects the shift in Europe's mature wind farms from "new installations" to "existing asset upgrades." Wind power upgrade projects require high utilization rates of land, grid connections, and existing infrastructure, making them suitable for promotion in early-stage wind farms.

Edison currently has approximately 2.3 GW of renewable energy capacity and plans to increase its renewable energy capacity to 4 GW by 2030. The completion of the Abruzzo wind power upgrade project will serve as a reference for the renovation of Italy's existing wind power assets and support Edison in enhancing its clean electricity supply capacity.
