Edison Energia aims to quadruple its share of services by 2030 with three acquisitions

Edison Energia aims to quadruple its market share in services intended for families, condominiums and small businesses by 2030. The company acquired Ies Solare, Energy Solutions and Gruppo Energia, three companies that were already Edison business partners and which together have a turnover of over 60 million euros, 130 employees and 32 stores.

The operation strengthens a strategy that aims to combine the traditional sale of electricity and gas with an increasingly wider range of services to structurally reduce energy consumption and spending, from making systems more efficient to self-production from renewable sources. The model integrates consultancy, technologies, incentives and financial solutions.

The three acquisitions will also allow Edison Energia to expand its presence in the area and its network of technicians, in particular in Triveneto, Emilia-Romagna, Tuscany and in the other regions of Central Italy. The entry of over 130 people determines an increase of more than 20% in the company's workforce.

The choice comes at a stage in which the volatility of energy markets continues to place the issue of energy costs at the center of the decisions of families and businesses. For Edison Energia, the answer does not only depend on the conditions of the commercial offers, but also on the possibility of structurally intervening on consumption.

“In a period of geopolitical uncertainty which is reflected in the prices of raw energy materials, customers can stabilize the cost and save on their bills by also optimizing consumption,” explains Massimo Quaglini, CEO of Edison Energia. “With the acquisitions – he adds – the company intends to strengthen its skills and territorial presence and reduce the energy expenditure of retail customers through self-consumption and both physical and virtual efficiency services”.

The expansion into services also marks a further expansion of Edison Energia's scope beyond its traditional role as supplier. In the residential market the company is already active with products for home efficiency and solutions for condominium energy communities, while for businesses it also operates in medium-long term contracts for the purchase of renewable energy and in the marketing of biomethane.
