The power station in Piedmont led the way at the forefront of the Futur-e project. It was the first example of the international ideas contest for the repurposing of a gas turbine plant and provided a new development opportunity to one of Italy’s major industrial and manufacturing areas

The gas turbine plant with a gross power of 177MW covers an area of 57,000 square metres in the province of Cagliari, well known for its ancient tradition of ceramic production. It was one of the first plants to be identified for repurposing

The thermoelectric plant in the province of Syracuse covers an area of 150,000 square metres. It is well known for its architectural design, which integrates the plant sensitively into the surrounding area, and with green spaces within the site

The plant in Bari is located to the west of the city, in the industrial area. It is one of the plants selected for the Project Contest procedure, which will identify sustainable solutions giving new life to the site

In the heart of Umbria, set among hills cultivated with vines and olives, the Bastardo plant is located in the district of Giano dell’Umbria (Perugia). The “Pietro Vannucci” plant is one of the plants selected for the Project Contest procedure, which will identify sustainable solutions giving new life to the site

In the province of Ancona, the plant covers an area of 79,000 square metres, in an area known as the Land of Castles, combining culture, gastronomy and tourism

The gas turbine plant in the province of Campobasso covers an area of 65,000 square metres in a vast agricultural area approximately 3km from the sea

In the province of Modena, in the lower Po valley, the gas turbine plant extends along an area of 76,000 square metres. A solution was identified to give it new life, and a “sustainable construction site” has been set up to build the logistics hub

The site of the coal-powered plant in Genoa, located beneath the monument that is the symbol of the city, the Genoa Lighthouse, covers an area of 48,000 square metres. In March 2017, the Ministry of Economic Development authorised Enel’s request for the definitive cessation of the plant’s activities

The gas turbine plant covers an area of 82,000 square metres in the hinterland of Naples between the province of Caserta and Campi Flegrei, a zone with a long-standing agricultural tradition

The gas turbine plant in the Province of Campobasso is located in an area known for its three thousand years of history and still exhibits a Roman amphitheatre, medieval towers and villas, the Ducal Palace that dates back to the Normans and the gothic-Romanic style cathedral

The plant named after the great poet and winner of the Nobel Prize for literature, Eugenio Montale, spreads across an area of 72 hectares. The sea is key to the area’s identity and it is a well-known tourist destination: a magic spot that has fascinated poets such as D’Annunzio, Byron and Shelley

Livorno is an industrial coastal city with thousands of years of history and a port that is important for both passenger and freight traffic

The gas turbine plant of Maddaloni in the province of Caserta covers an area of 69,000 square metres. The economy of the area is highly diversified and is based on craftsmanship, industry and the tertiary sector

The power plant named after Alessandro Volta, made up of 8 groups of gas turbines and 4 steam units. is located in an area that was initially destined to house one of Italy’s first nuclear power plants. However, the nuclear project was abandoned during its construction. It is one of the plants selected for the Project Contest procedure, which will identify sustainable solutions giving new life to the site

The plant in Pietrafitta, in the province of Perugia, was the venue for the first ‘Enel Idea Factory’, a brainstorming workshop open to companies, associations and local administrators that worked together to develop the best repurposing solutions for the plant with respect to the local area

The oil fired thermoelectric plant extends across an area of 140,000 hectares (40 of which are occupied by the plant’s facility) in an area engaged in the iron and steel industry, fishing and tourism

Marghera is part of Italian industrial history. The coal fired thermoelectric plant “Giuseppe Volpi” extends over 118,000 square metres in the port and the industrial area of Venice. The plant has not been in operation since 2013. In 2015 it was sold together with the surrounding area

The plant in the province of Rovigo ceased its production activities in January 2015. It is one of the plants selected for the Project Contest procedure, which will identify sustainable solutions giving new life to the site

The Rossano plant in the province of Cosenza is located in an area known for its natural heritage and tourism. It is one of the plants selected for the Project Contest procedure, which will identify sustainable solutions giving new life to the site

The gas fired thermoelectric power station in the province of Palermo has undergone various enlargements and transformations over the years. Only one part of the site, which today is no longer functional in the production of energy, is included in the Futur-e project

Situated in Vercelli in Piedmont, the site of the power plant covers an area of around 90 hectares of which 24 are occupied by the plant’s facilities. In 2016 the Minister for Economic Development authorised the termination of service for the thermoelectric plant. It is one of the plants selected for the Project Contest procedure, which will identify sustainable solutions giving new life to the site
