      Rural electrification is a strategic area in which Tozzi Green strongly demonstrates its technical expertise and sustainable vision.<\/p>\n

      The company develops autonomous, scalable, and reliable energy solutions<\/strong> capable of ensuring access to electricity in areas where the national power grid is absent, unreliable, or too distant to be sustainable.<\/p>\n

      An integrated and flexible approach that supports local development and energy inclusion.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

      Energy access for all<\/h3><\/div>

      \u201cMaking electricity available in third world countries and developing countries means creating a solid base for combating poverty. The high infantile mortality rate caused by the absence of potable water and poor distribution of vaccines is among the most urgent problems that require solutions.<\/strong><\/em>
      \nThanks to electricity, it is possible to pump clean water from the deep water tables and store vaccines in refrigerators at the required temperatures. The availability of electricity is still a mirage for some populations.<\/strong><\/em>
      \nWe are concerned precisely with these communities. It is here that prompt action needs to be taken, and here that we can make the most of our experience in distributed generation and energy storage systems.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

      Social and economic benefits<\/h3><\/div>

      Tozzi Green operates in full compliance with the environmental and social standards promoted by multilateral organizations such as the IFC \u2013 International Finance Corporation \u2013 actively contributing to the development of local communities and the energy transition in challenging contexts.<\/p>\n

      Access to electricity<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

        \n
      • improves the daily lives of local communities<\/strong>, fostering a sense of citizenship, making the presence of the state tangible, and promoting social inclusion<\/li>\n
      • allows for an extended working day and facilitates school activities<\/strong>, contributing to the right to education<\/li>\n
      • reduces the digital, cultural, and social divide among communities<\/strong><\/li>\n
      • enables the provision of essential equipment for first aid centers and medical interventions<\/strong>, indirectly supporting the coverage of healthcare services throughout the country. This means creating a concrete foundation for the right to health and access to healthcare<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

        \u201cLuz Para Todos\u201d is the result of an international tender launched by the Peruvian government for the supply of electricity from renewable sources and to provide energy to isolated areas not connected to the national grid. The availability of electricity has improved the quality of life for the families served, enhancing communication through mobile phones, radios, and television; it has connected isolated communities with the country\u2019s culture.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

        In Peru, access to energy is made problematic by the isolation of rural areas and the inadequacy of communication routes. The lack of road infrastructure discourages private initiative in electrification-related projects. This is the main reason that led the Ministry of Energy to launch the rural electrification program, called\u00a0\u201cLuz para todos\u201d, which aims to equip over 220 thousand families with off-grid systems based on solar panels.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

        Tozzi Green, through its subsidiaries, was awarded Investment Contracts for the Supply of Electricity from Renewable Sources in Off-Grid Areas<\/strong>, as part of a public tender launched by the Ministry of Energy and Mines.<\/p>\n

        Ergon provided electricity to households through off-grid photovoltaic systems equipped with storage<\/strong>, meeting basic needs such as lighting and the use of essential devices (mobile phones, radios, television, small appliances).<\/p>\n

        Between 2017 and 2019, a total of 222,000 Solar Home Systems were installed\u2014internally designed\u2014bringing electricity to nearly one million people and over 3,000 public facilities.
        \nThe project was further expanded in 2021 with 8,000 new-generation kits certified by Verasol.<\/p>\n

        The latest version of the SHS systems, developed by Tozzi Green, reduces raw material use and environmental impact while increasing the energy available to the end user by over 50%, allowing for the operation of devices such as LED lights, radios, TVs, fans, solar lanterns, and refrigerators.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

        <\/div><\/div>

        Tozzi Green organized the logistics of the supply chain that installed kits in exceptionally remote areas of the country: at 5,000 meters in the Andes or deep in the jungle after three days of river navigation.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

        Tozzi Green managed the design, installation, maintenance, and asset management of the systems for over a decade, contributing significantly to the country\u2019s energy and social development.<\/p>\n

        The project concluded in 2024<\/strong> with the divestment of assets in Latin America, in line with the Group\u2019s industrial plan, which now focuses on Italy and Europe.
        \nThe Peruvian experience stands as a milestone for Tozzi Green: a replicable model that continues to generate value in other areas of the world.<\/p>\n<\/div>
