New trends and positive technological confirmations. What did Utility Day 2022 leave us with?
Even on the eve of the event and, at Apparound, we had already sensed the importance of having to be present at the 2022 edition of the most important event in Italy for the Gas & Power industry. Never has the Assago Congress Centre been as full of visitors as it was this year. An event that saw a busy schedule of meetings, debates, and outstanding speeches, which allowed us to consolidate relationships with our partners and start working on new proposals.
The primary objective? To provide an overview of how the Gas & Power market is evolving, with an increasingly urgent need to accelerate the process of technological innovation and provide companies with useful tools to tackle new scenarios. The current historical moment makes even more relevant the necessity to meet in person and share concrete experiences, updates on the latest trends in the Italian energy sector and, at the same time, meet potential technological partners able to support companies and help them overcome the complexities of the moment.
But what were the trending topics of the event? Let’s analyze them together.
The importance of renewable sources in the context of energy transformation
In a scenario of energy transition, the role of multiculturality economy becomes increasingly important to meet the needs of a customer in a post-pandemic context characterized by the presence of significant war conflict. Indeed, the main advantage of renewable sources lies in their ability to provide the energy that businesses and enterprises need, without compromising the environment. Therefore, many businesses have already started taking advantage of this opportunity.
However, according to an accurate estimate by the Institute for Environmental Protection and Research, greenhouse gas emissions from the use of fuels for energy production are not being mitigated. Also, given the increasing concentrations of air pollutants, renewable energy production initiatives have become increasingly necessary.

Among the most important priorities in the utility market is the need to support companies in following a technology development path, to revise business models considering the current market situation. Companies cannot wait any longer: the time has come to make investments, both in data collection and in the digitization of sales processes, to offer customer-centric solutions that can support users and offer them customized offers tailored to their needs.
