00:00Today we present the Mediterranean Italian Offshore project, an avant-garde project in the offshore wind sector.
00:17It is not only wind, it is a hybrid project that also includes an important component of floating photovoltaics.
00:24We are in the Gulf of Taranto, on a territory that is part of the region of Calabria, about 20 km from the coast.
00:33It is a project of 420 MW, plus 70 MW of photovoltaics, plus 100 MW of wind, so for a total of about 590 MW.
00:43A project that has an investment value that falls between 1.5 billion and 1.7 billion euros.
00:52It is a very important project, which will also have relevant occupational and social benefits on the territory.
00:59We only think that in the construction phase, the use of 1,300 units is planned for the first three years,
01:06and subsequently, for the remaining 30 years planned for the operational phase,
01:12a number of people employed and dedicated to the project, which is around 500 people per year,
01:20of which about half are employed directly by the company, and the remaining half will be part of the industry.
01:27So a project that, also from an occupational point of view, we said, will have an impact that we estimate today of about 660 million euros
01:37throughout its life, not to mention the local losses on the territory, which today certainly have a strong need for professionalization,
01:52and so here we also have a very important partnership with the University of Calabria.
