We are installing microturbines to grant the continuous power supply of the FIO devices installed on the Pressure Reduction Units. These devices are power generating systems that use gas pressure in the pipes to generate electricity. The first example of this kind of equipment has been installed and put into operation at the beginning of September 2017 on one of the Albiate Reduction Groups involved in the Green Gas Network project.
