ESG / Sustainability Report / 2022 ESG / Sustainability Report / 2022 PLATOON SMART LAND IN VALMALENCO (9) (11) (3) (7) (9) (11) (12) (17) Our research project to modernize the power grid thanks to new smart network services based on The I.T.I.- Investimento Territoriale Integrato [Integrated Local Investment] ‘In Valmalenco’ project the exploitation of data. for smart and eco-sustainable local developmentThe project Energy sector digitalization allows for higher levels of operational excellence thanks to the adoption The project nvolves four Municipalities in the Lombardy valley (Chiesa in Valmalenco, Caspoggio, of innovative technologies. The Energy Big Data framework of modern smart power grids provides the Lanzada and Spriana), supported by us and CISA, the companies that were awarded the project ideal ecosystem for the exploitation of knowledge deriving from data. financing for project management services over the next 7 years, under the auspices of the Lombardy The PLATOON research project implements distributed/edge processing technologies and data Region for the signing of the Local Development Framework Agreement (“AQST”) as a governance tool. analysis for simple, optimized energy system management in real time for the sector expert. The We presented our project financing to the Municipalities, offering our services, along with CISA, to Digital Sustainability project develops and uses the reference PLATOON architecture, compliant with COSMAG, to build and support the Entities in the enactment of the entire program. We are therefore an “accelerator” that implement scalable and replicable energy management solutions that contribute towards increasing guarantees the implementation of strategic projects, becoming the link between the strategic vision of renewable energy consumption, smart grid management, increasing energy efficiency and optimizing the Municipalities and project implementation. energy resource management. The model is based on 6 broad “thematic pillars”: Mobility, Water, Energy Efficiency, Local development and regeneration, Quality of life and Digitalization. The processing of the data gathered has made it Results: Innovative technologies for higher levels of operational excellence; Modernization of the possible to classify over 100 projects, which have been grouped into a functional matrix and broken European power grid; Access to more cost-effective and sustainable energy; Increase in renewable down by “pillar”. energy consumption; Smart grid management; Higher energy efficiency The project financing calls for creating and managing a technological infrastructure for data collection Digital Sustainability across all of the projects. The parties that will carry out the various projects will therefore need to use the project platforms or, alternatively, transfer all data deemed necessary and indicated in the various project assignment procedures. The main platform that we will offer is the Digital Enabler, in addition to a series of digitalized solutions and services for municipal residents and employees (ARGO). Results: Support in carrying out strategic projects; Technological and transversal data collection infrastructure; Simplicity and effectiveness in carrying out projects for the local area; Use of the project financing methodology 76 Engineering © Engineering © 77
