Our Mission

EF Solare Italia is committed to solar energy production, combining strong expertise with continuous innovation. We invest in technological advancement to provide future generations with a sustainable development model.

We are an ambitious, dynamic, and inclusive team, ready to embrace new challenges and turn innovative ideas into reality. Our strength lies in the solid foundation of trust and mutual respect, allowing us to pursue our common goals with determination and collaboration.

Our mission is to lead the growth of the solar energy sector in Italy and Europe, contributing to the 2030 decarbonization goals, when over 60% of electricity consumption must come from renewable energy sources.

With over 1 GW of operational capacity in Italy and Spain, we optimize our solar plants through revamping and repowering, while also developing new photovoltaic capacity. By doing so, we play a key role in the energy transition, carbon reduction, and clean energy production at a national and European level.

EF Solare Italia is backed by F2i – Fondi Italiani per le Infrastrutture, Italy’s largest infrastructure fund, and Crédit Agricole Assurances, the leading French institutional investor in renewable energy.

Producing clean energy
Solar energy can be directly converted into electricity through photovoltaic technology, which uses solar panels equipped with semiconductor materials such as monocrystalline, polycrystalline, or amorphous silicon. This technology plays a key role in reducing carbon emissions and supporting a more sustainable energy system.
Through its solar power plants, EF Solare Italia generates approximately 1,400,000 MWh of clean energy annually—enough to meet the electricity needs of nearly 500,000 Italian households. This production helps prevent the release of more than 600,000 tons of CO₂ into the atmosphere each year.

Expanding the use of renewable energy
The PNIEC (National Integrated Energy and Climate Plan) sets a target of installing more than 130 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2030, with solar power playing a central role, contributing around 80 GW. To achieve this goal, Italy must install approximately 7 GW of additional solar capacity each year.
To ensure grid stability and resilience, the PNIEC also plans for more than 22.5 GW of energy storage capacity, supporting the efficient integration of renewable sources into the national electricity network.

A long-term commitment
Since its founding, EF Solare Italia has consistently invested in the integration of renewable energy into the national grid, aiming for 65% of final energy consumption to come from renewables.
The company’s installed capacity in Italy has steadily grown over the years, reaching 1,070 MW in 2024 and contributing to national decarbonization targets. EF Solare Italia is committed to further expansion, with an ambitious greenfield development plan aimed at doubling installed capacity in the coming years.

Developing skills for the future
The energy transition is driving the creation of a growing number of green jobs, particularly in the solar energy sector. To meet 2030 decarbonization goals, approximately 700,000 new jobs will be created in renewable energy industries.
EF Solare Italia actively supports education and workforce development by promoting solar energy training programs in secondary schools and participating in university master’s programs and postgraduate training initiatives.

Gender equality and pay equity
EF Solare Italia actively promotes inclusivity and gender equality, which are core principles of our company philosophy. Currently, more than 30% of our team is made up of women, a significant achievement in the renewable energy sector and within STEM professions. As part of our growth strategy, we focus on empowering women to build a diverse and inclusive workforce. Additionally, we continue working to reduce and minimize the gender pay gap, ensuring fair and equitable conditions for all our employees.

Lifelong training and talent development
Our commitment extends beyond diversity and pay equity. We firmly believe that lifelong training is a key pillar of both business and personal success. We regularly invest in professional development programs, training courses, and specialized workshops, enabling our team to grow, acquire new skills, and navigate the challenges of an ever-evolving market. This approach allows us to fully leverage the talents within our company and attract new, motivated, and qualified professionals.

Young talent and a dynamic work environment
EF Solare Italia, with nearly 15 years of experience, continues to evolve and reinvent itself. Young talent is an endless source of energy and innovation: over 80% of our team is under 50, while more than 15% is under 30. This balance between experience and youth fosters a dynamic and stimulating work environment, where fresh ideas and enthusiasm blend with solid expertise.

Well-being and flexibility through remote work
We place great emphasis on our team’s well-being, promoting initiatives that support a healthy work-life balance. We offer flexible working hours, comfortable office spaces, and corporate policies designed to meet the needs of our employees. We believe that a positive and supportive workplace is essential for both individual and collective growth.
The adoption of remote work practices is another key element of our strategy, allowing our team to work flexibly and manage their time efficiently without compromising productivity and performance.

A bright and sustainable future
We take pride in building an inclusive, dynamic, and ever-growing workplace where innovation and diversity go hand in hand to shape a brighter and more sustainable future. Our commitment extends beyond developing cutting-edge technologies for the energy transition—we strive to create a company model that sets the standard for equity, sustainability, and employee empowerment.
