Absolicon is preparing to build a first solar collector field at Birra Peroni brewery in Italy, part of Asahi Group.

The solar installation will provide first-hand experience on how Absolicon concentrating solar technology supports Birra Peronis’s commitment to reach a zero carbon production in 2030.

The initial installation is a 660 m2 solar field located in Bari, Italy, providing solar thermal energy for brewery processes through a heat purchase agreement.

Absolicon and Birra Peroni s.r.l.(Birra Peroni), have signed an agreement to start preparations for a first solar collector field at Birra Peroni plant in Bari, Italy.

Birra Peroni is part of global brewer Asahi Group. The Bari plant in Italy is part of Asahi Europe & International that produces the beer Peroni and Peroni Nastro Azzurro as well as other well-known Asahi brands like Raffo, Wuhrer and Tourtel.

Absolicon is providing its patented solar collector Absolicon T160 and plant integration. Birra Peroni will then buy the solar heat produced through a heat purchase agreement to run the brewing processes.

Enrico Galasso, Managing Director of Birra Peroni: "In line with our long-term sustainability goals, we are committed to go zero emissions in our production by 2030. Sustainability performance in our Bari plant are already on the right track and thanks to the Absolicon technology we will take another big step closer towards our destination”

Joakim Byström, CEO Absolicon: “We at Absolicon aim to revolutionize the energy supply and envision a sustainable industry. Birra Peroni, as part of Asahi group, has high climate ambitions and we look forward to this first joint project and of Absolicon technology contributing to Birra Peroni reaching their goal in achieving zero carbon in their production.”
