As the operational arm of the TEA Group (a Benefit Corporation), SEI stands at the forefront of energy service management in Mantua, merging industrial efficiency with the social responsibility inherent to Benefit Corporations. Within the HYMANTOVALLEY initiative, the company goes beyond simple participation, tackling the complex engineering challenge of adapting existing plants to new energy carriers.

Its primary task is to conduct a feasibility study on decarbonizing the city’s current district heating network through the use of hydrogen. This operation is crucial for validating the resilience of the current distribution grid, proving that the ecological transition can be achieved by evolving, rather than replacing, the city’s critical infrastructure.

Furthermore, the success of this pilot program will set a new standard for “District Heating 4.0,” capable of drastically reducing residential CO2 emissions while maintaining peak comfort for citizens.
