SERVIZI A RETE: LOCPOWER IN THE GAZZERA PLANT - VENICE AQUEDUCT

Last week, at the Servizi a Rete 2024 event, Marco Tassotto (Valpres Sales Manager Energy Division) and Claudio Gattavari (Valpres Control and Energy Harvesting Valves Product Manager) presented the abstract “Installation of an energy recovery hydraulic control valve at the Gazzera plant - Acquedotto di Venezia”, concerning the first installation of the Valpres Locpower valve for the Veritas Group.

The project, focused on the production of green energy and the digitalisation of the water network, aims to improve the efficiency of the infrastructure, guaranteeing the reliability of the system, even in areas with a high influx of tourists.

Thanks to the Valpres Locpower valve, it has been possible to harness hydraulic pressures to reduce losses, cut CO₂ emissions and improve network monitoring.

In the first part of the presentation, the Veritas Group described the path to this result, while Valpres illustrated the concrete benefits: around 200 MWh recovered per year and over 80 tonnes of CO₂ avoided.

A significant achievement that marks progress for the environment and underlines the need for sustainable solutions for the water infrastructure of the future.
