00:00:00.720 --> 00:00:04.800 align:center position:25% size:50%
What do we need to transform this 
Etna Valley into an energy valley? 

2
00:00:04.800 --> 00:00:07.160 align:center position:25% size:50%
A big company
focuses on energy 

3
00:00:07.160 --> 00:00:10.160 align:center position:25% size:50%
and Enel is the biggest 
company in the world

4
00:00:10.160 --> 00:00:12.120 align:center position:25% size:50%
and the biggest European energy company.

5
00:00:12.120 --> 00:00:15.120 align:center position:25% size:50%
We need the passion,
talent of the entrepreneurs 

6
00:00:15.120 --> 00:00:18.120 align:center position:25% size:50%
and we need great talented people 
already working on innovation 

7
00:00:18.120 --> 00:00:20.720 align:center position:25% size:50%
in the energy sector:  
our people.

8
00:00:20.720 --> 00:00:22.800 align:center position:25% size:50%
We need the best universities
to work with.

9
00:00:22.800 --> 00:00:25.800 align:center position:25% size:50%
You need to establish a new ecosystem

10
00:00:25.800 --> 00:00:29.240 align:center position:25% size:50%
such as the energy valley,
You need a great place.

11
00:00:33.760 --> 00:00:37.960 align:center position:25% size:50%
In the ecosystems of hubs and labs 
that we have around the world, 

12
00:00:37.960 --> 00:00:40.800 align:center position:25% size:50%
I think the specificity you 
can see from the environment, 

13
00:00:40.800 --> 00:00:42.320 align:center position:25% size:50%
I mean we are in a very sunny place.

14
00:00:42.320 --> 00:00:44.600 align:center position:25% size:50%
Here we can experiment, invent,

15
00:00:44.600 --> 00:00:47.480 align:center position:25% size:50%
innovate and then we can test  
in a very challenging environment. 

16
00:00:47.480 --> 00:00:49.400 align:center position:25% size:50%
So from the hub to the lab

17
00:00:49.400 --> 00:00:51.600 align:center position:25% size:50%
and then from the lab to the field test 

18
00:00:51.600 --> 00:00:55.440 align:center position:25% size:50%
because we have a factory 
and a power plant very close to this place, 

19
00:00:55.440 --> 00:00:58.440 align:center position:25% size:50%
so we can  then test 
in a real environment

20
00:00:58.440 --> 00:01:00.440 align:center position:25% size:50%
if the innovation that we have promoted

21
00:01:00.440 --> 00:01:01.840 align:center position:25% size:50%
in this place is the right one.

22
00:01:04.160 --> 00:01:07.760 align:center position:25% size:50%
In this campus, we are developing 
a lot of initiatives,

23
00:01:07.760 --> 00:01:10.760 align:center position:25% size:50%
we are collaborating with a lot of partners,

24
00:01:10.760 --> 00:01:13.400 align:center position:25% size:50%
startups or companies, 
that want to develop

25
00:01:13.400 --> 00:01:14.960 align:center position:25% size:50%
with us a new project.

26
00:01:14.960 --> 00:01:17.840 align:center position:25% size:50%
So for this reason, we are open to understand

27
00:01:17.840 --> 00:01:20.840 align:center position:25% size:50%
to evaluate all the best 
solutions that are in the field,

28
00:01:20.840 --> 00:01:24.280 align:center position:25% size:50%
but not only evaluate the currently best solutions

29
00:01:24.280 --> 00:01:28.480 align:center position:25% size:50%
but we develop together with our partners the best solutions.

30
00:01:28.760 --> 00:01:31.480 align:center position:25% size:50%
We can put our know-how 

31
00:01:31.480 --> 00:01:33.840 align:center position:25% size:50%
into the development of this project. 

32
00:01:37.080 --> 00:01:41.560 align:center position:25% size:50%
We were approached by 
Enel, back in 2015.

33
00:01:41.560 --> 00:01:43.720 align:center position:25% size:50%
They wanted to use our technology 

34
00:01:43.720 --> 00:01:48.960 align:center position:25% size:50%
to retrofit the existing installations 
to improve the power.

35
00:01:48.960 --> 00:01:51.960 align:center position:25% size:50%
We tested our device  
on a 2Kw installation,

36
00:01:51.960 --> 00:01:54.480 align:center position:25% size:50%
right here in Catania, and the product produced

37
00:01:54.480 --> 00:01:56.240 align:center position:25% size:50%
8-10% improvement in power.

38
00:01:59.520 --> 00:02:03.360 align:center position:25% size:50%
We develop software based  
on artificial intelligence,

39
00:02:03.360 --> 00:02:05.320 align:center position:25% size:50%
so computer vision machine learning

40
00:02:05.320 --> 00:02:09.080 align:center position:25% size:50%
and we are active with Enel,  
here in Passo Martino

41
00:02:09.080 --> 00:02:11.840 align:center position:25% size:50%
in developing some software 
for machine learning, 

42
00:02:11.840 --> 00:02:14.600 align:center position:25% size:50%
Big Data analytics based on some algorithms 

43
00:02:14.600 --> 00:02:16.280 align:center position:25% size:50%
that we developed in the past

44
00:02:16.280 --> 00:02:19.760 align:center position:25% size:50%
Oand now we are making a hub and lab here, 

45
00:02:19.760 --> 00:02:24.360 align:center position:25% size:50%
in order to provide to Enel additional information 
regarding the status of their plants

46
00:02:24.360 --> 00:02:27.360 align:center position:25% size:50%
and also the production of their plants
based on forecasting 

47
00:02:27.360 --> 00:02:29.560 align:center position:25% size:50%
and nowcasting that we have 
in place right now

48
00:02:29.560 --> 00:02:32.080 align:center position:25% size:50%
with some modules that we developed in the past.
