  • ROME, ITALY - 20 MARCH 2017: White LED street lamps with their glass panes removed light up a street in the Monti neighborhood in Rome, Italy, on March 20th 2017.<br />
<br />
Rome is undergoing a city-wide plan to change its public illumination from the current yellow sodium street lights CK to white LED lamps. In making the change, Rome joins a long line of cities around the world that have switched to the cheaper, and more environmentally friendly LED lighting, and it is not the first city where that change has come at the price of protest.<br />
<br />
Since July, some 100,000 led lights have already been installed, just over half the number that will be substituted in the 53 million euro changeover that is expected to save the city millions of euros in electrical bills. But when Rome’s municipal electrical utility ACEA began to substitute the lamps in Rome’s historic center, residents began to take note.

As the 2021 G20 Summit in the Italian capital this weekend, climate activists marched in Rome to urge the Group of 20 leaders to act urgently amid a time of unprecedented interest in climate change and social justice. The environmentalist march was joined by workers’ unions and factory workers who are seizing the opportunity to voice anger at the elites.<br />
<br />
The Fridays for Future movement started by Greta Thunberg's School Strike For Climate protest said the young people will make their voices heard against "the same powers, the same interests, the same injustices that led us to the climate crisis". Their statement pointed out that 75% of global greenhouse gas emissions come from G20 countries.

  • CONTURSI TERME, ITALY - 11 FEBRUARY 2020: A man is seen here at work during the production of pasta at the Orogiallo pasta factory in Contursi Terme, Italy, on February 11th 2020.<br />
<br />
In April 2019, Snam was the first company in Europe to introduce a blend of 5% hydrogen and natural gas in its transmission network. The trial involved supplying H2NG (hydrogen-natural gas blend) for a month to two industrial companies in the area, a pasta factory and a mineral water bottling company. The trial at Contursi was repeated in December 2019, doubling the hydrogen blend to 10%.<br />
Applying a permanent 10% hydrogen blend to the total gas transported annually by Snam would mean that 7 billion cubic meters could be injected into the network each year, which is equivalent to the annual consumption of 3 million households. This would allow for a potential reduction of carbon dioxide emissions by 5 million tons.<br />
<br />
Italy is optimally positioned to become a leading hub for green hydrogen from North Africa to<br />
Europe. Italy could use its solar resources and its existing connection to North Africa (which has even better<br />
solar resources) to set up a leading hydrogen hub.<br />
<br />
Snam is one of the world’s leading energy infrastructure companies and first in Europe by gas transmission network size (32,625 km in Italy, over 41,000 with international subsidiaries) and storage capacity (16.9 billion cubic meters in Italy, more than 20 bcm with international subsidiaries).<br />
<br />
In September 2018, together with other European companies, Snam signed a Hydrogen Initiative declaration to support hydrogen’s potential as a sustainable energy source. The signatory companies have undertaken to gradually integrate hydrogen into gas transmission networks and to encourage their use as a solution for energy storage, as well as to support the development of hydrogen produced by electrolysis, which allows more efficient use of energy intermittent renewables.<br />

Applying a permanent 10% hydrogen blend to the total gas transported annually by Snam would mean that 7 billion cubic meters could be injected into the network each year, which is equivalent to the annual consumption of 3 million households. This would allow for a potential reduction of carbon dioxide emissions by 5 million tons.<br />

Snam is one of the world’s leading energy infrastructure companies and first in Europe by gas transmission network size (32,625 km in Italy, over 41,000 with international subsidiaries) and storage capacity (16.9 billion cubic meters in Italy, more than 20 bcm with international subsidiaries).<br />

In September 2018, together with other European companies, Snam signed a Hydrogen Initiative declaration to support hydrogen’s potential as a sustainable energy source. The signatory companies have undertaken to gradually integrate hydrogen into gas transmission networks and to encourage their use as a solution for energy storage, as well as to support the development of hydrogen produced by electrolysis, which allows more efficient use of energy intermittent renewables.<br />

In April 2019, Snam was the first company in Europe to introduce a blend of 5% hydrogen and natural gas in its transmission network.

The signatory companies have undertaken to gradually integrate hydrogen into gas transmission networks and to encourage their use as a solution for energy storage, as well as to support the development of hydrogen produced by electrolysis, which allows more efficient use of energy intermittent renewables.<br />

<br />
In April 2019, Snam was the first company in Europe to introduce a blend of 5% hydrogen and natural gas in its transmission network. The trial involved supplying H2NG (hydrogen-natural gas blend) for a month to two industrial companies in the area, a pasta factory and a mineral water bottling company. The trial at Contursi was repeated in December 2019, doubling the hydrogen blend to 10%.<br />
Applying a permanent 10% hydrogen blend to the total gas transported annually by Snam would mean that 7 billion cubic meters could be injected into the network each year, which is equivalent to the annual consumption of 3 million households. This would allow for a potential reduction of carbon dioxide emissions by 5 million tons.<br />

Italy is optimally positioned to become a leading hub for green hydrogen from North Africa to<br />
Europe. Italy could use its solar resources and its existing connection to North Africa (which has even better<br />
solar resources) to set up a leading hydrogen hub.<br />
<br />
Snam is one of the world’s leading energy infrastructure companies and first in Europe by gas transmission network size (32,625 km in Italy, over 41,000 with international subsidiaries) and storage capacity (16.9 billion cubic meters in Italy, more than 20 bcm with international subsidiaries).<br />
<br />
In September 2018, together with other European companies, Snam signed a Hydrogen Initiative declaration to support hydrogen’s potential as a sustainable energy source. The signatory companies have undertaken to gradually integrate hydrogen into gas transmission networks and to encourage their use as a solution for energy storage, as well as to support the development of hydrogen produced by electrolysis, which allows more efficient use of energy intermittent renewables.<br />
Snam has recently doubled the volume of the hydrogen blend, which was experimentally introduced into its natural gas transmission network in Contursi Terme, Salerno (Italy), to 10%, this just a few months after the 5% hydrogen blend was introduced into the network for the first time in Europe. This directly supplied two companies, a pasta factory and a mineral water bottling company that both operate locally.

The SNAM dispatching center is a strategic infrastructure to manage gas flows on the domestic transmission network. The main gas pipelines and compressor stations that make up the Italian gas system are monitored or remote controlled 24 hours a day, 365 days a year from the operation room. A large videowall, about 50 square meters, provides operators with an overall view of the domestic gas transmission network with the main points of interest and the related process information.<br />
