Its generation fleet combines three thermoelectric plants on the Tyrrhenian coast — comprising four natural-gas combined-cycle units — with 19 hydroelectric plants distributed along the entire arc of the Ligurian Apennines. The company employed 232 people as of the period covered by its corporate profile. The company positions its portfolio around the energy transition, presenting hydroelectric and natural-gas-fired plants as complementary sources of secure, flexible and sustainable power. Its website highlights renewable energy communities, natural gas and renewables for the energy transition, and the redevelopment of the Vado Ligure power plant site. Tirreno Power also emphasises dialogue with local territories, sustainability, and cultural initiatives, including a partnership with the Fondazione Bellonci and sponsorship of the Premio Strega Poesia in Civitavecchia. Tirreno Power's corporate identity stresses resilience, dynamism, reliability, unity and competence, and it frames its recent history as a successful deep transformation of the business. Its operations are concentrated in Italy, with thermoelectric assets on the Tyrrhenian coast and a large hydroelectric portfolio in the Ligurian Apennines.
History
Tirreno Power was founded in 2003, in the wake of the liberalisation of the Italian electricity market. The company built a generation portfolio based on two main pillars: natural-gas-fired thermoelectric plants located along the Tyrrhenian coast, and a large fleet of hydroelectric plants in the Ligurian Apennines. Over time it became one of Italy's leading electricity producers, with around 2,500 MW of available capacity and approximately 2,500 GWh of electricity fed into the grid in 2024. The company has undergone what it describes as a deep and necessary transformation, emerging with a renewed corporate identity centred on resilience, dynamism, reliability, unity and competence. Its current strategy emphasises the energy transition, presenting natural gas as a flexible complement to renewables and promoting renewable energy communities. It has also pursued territorial redevelopment, including a new life for the Vado Ligure power plant site, and cultural engagement such as its partnership with the Fondazione Bellonci and its support for the Premio Strega Poesia in Civitavecchia for four consecutive years.
