Stefano Bonani - Sole Director Company & Vincenzo Giannelli - Director of plant engineering & EHS Manager, SAVIO Industrial Srl
Savio Industrial is part of the SAVIO Group, which operates in the pharmaceutical sector, covering various sectors: from development to the production, distribution and scientific information to medical professionals. The SAVIO Group has always paid close attention to the impact of its activities on the environment and, with this in mind, the cogeneration project was born. The 1 MW plant commissioned in 2018 at the Pavia site satisfies approximately 85% of the company's energy needs. The heat is primarily used for process-related needs and for the management of environmental conditions, temperature and humidity, in environments used for pharmaceutical production. Finally, in addition to avoiding the emission of 10,000 tons/year of CO2 into the atmosphere, the installation was recognized as a high efficiency cogeneration plant and obtained the relative energy efficiency certificates.
