Conversazione con Edo Ronchi, presidente della Fondazione per lo sviluppo sostenibile (di cui fa parte Nextchem), esperto di Green Economy ed ex Ministro italiano dell'ambiente.

It is clear to everyone today that the coronavirus outbreak will produce a relevant crisis at a global level, triggering a serious economic slowdown and it seems likely that the economic downturn will have as an immediate effect a drop in carbon dioxide emissions. In Italy in the first quarter of 2020 the estimate of this drop is around 5-7% in comparison with the same period of 2019, while some analysis show that in China CO2 emissions reduction is much higher.

Dear All, 

I would like to send you our best thoughts for these difficult days. Our teams in Italy and worldwide have been all connected in smart working since the beginning of the pandemia thanks to the digital innovation that in our Group, Maire Tecnimont, has been embraced since long time, with excellent results.

NextChem, the company of Maire Tecnimont Group focused on the Energy Transition, will cooperate with Saola Energy to license a technology for the production of Renewable Diesel, suitable for both small bolt-on facilities and large plants.

The energy transition is driving both producers and customers to rethink their future needs and what kinds of products and solutions will be required to enable a sustainable future in terms of emissions waste and economics.

Milan, December 13th, 2019 - Maire Tecnimont continues its Green
Acceleration project, launched in 2018, by finalizing a loan aimed at
supporting the Group’s investments in its green technologies.
