Support for Agricola Puccia to build a biomass plant

Intesa Sanpaolo supports the Sicilian company Agricola Puccia Srl with a S-Loan Climate Change financing of €1.2 million dedicated to the construction of a biomass power plant.

Thanks to the new biomass plant built by Agricola Puccia with the loan from Intesa Sanpaolo, the farm will be able to generate a positive impact on the environment in which it operates through:

• the adoption and maintenance of agriculture 4.0 solutions for energy and water consumption savings
• the achievement of a quota of self-generated electricity through renewable energy plants

since the plant will be fuelled by the biogas generated by the waste from the farm's agricultural and livestock-raising activities.

Climate Change S-Loans

S-Loan Climate Change financing is dedicated to companies that intend to invest in the adoption of more sustainable business models, in particular reducing their environmental impact, and grants a bonus in terms of the cost of financing when certain pre-established objectives are met.
