First Italian project of closed-loop geothermal energy with seasonal thermal storage, co-financed by the European Commission.
Pangea as the disruptive project in the Italian energy transition.
The Pangea project represents the way FRI-EL GEO is working to reduce CO2 emissions, decrease reliance on fossil fuel sources, and lower bills for citizens and businesses: this is our challenge!
FRI-EL GEO sarà il first mover nella tecnologia geotermica a ciclo chiuso e a bassa/media-entalpia, Pangea porta un enorme vantaggio derivante dalle economie di scala con più di 20 opportunità di esplorazione in Italia, di cui 7 già realizzabili nei prossimi anni.
Pangea significantly reduces the ecological footprint for a more sustainable future.
The Pangea project includes all these initiatives within the research permits; a research permit can encompass multiple projects and geothermal plants. The facility is designed to emit no emissions into the atmosphere, neither CO2 nor other harmful gases.
- 12 active research permits
- 20 plants in the feasibility and development phase
- 16 projects feasible in the next 5 years
-
1 project is expected to become operational in 2028.
'We need to focus on renewables. Italy is one of the best countries in the world for geothermal energy, neglecting it is a shame'

GREEN AND RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCE FOR EXCELLENCE!
The natural heat of planet Earth
The geothermal resource is a ‘renewable‘ form of energy because the source is inexhaustible on the scale of human time. Using earth’s heat consists of fulfilling the needs of current generations without compromising the needs of future generations, while ensuring a balance between economic growth, environmental care, and social well-being. For this reason, the geothermal power is defined as ‘sustainable’.
Cutting-edge company in sustainable energy
The FRI-EL group is one of Italy’s leading producers of electricity from renewable sources (wind, biomass and biogas). The company supports local economies and communities by investing in sustainable energy projects that benefit thousands of Italian families and create jobs in the areas where they operate.
Through FRI-EL GEO, the group invested in the construction of geothermal power plants to address the increasing demand for renewable energy and to render Italy independent from other countries.
