Italian oil group Eni is partnering with state-run agency the Gestore dei Servizi Energetici to build a 26 MW solar park at Eni's Assemini industrial facility. Once operational, the site will provide around 70% of the energy requirements for local salt company Conti Vecchi. The project was approved by Italy's Environment Ministry in December and has been under construction since last year.
