The client Energia Vulture Alto Bradano, had two requirements when they partnered with EXERGY. Their first requirement was to dispose of waste from grape and olive production and waste from the local wood processing industry using environmentally friendly methods. Their second requirement was to operate their business in a more economically efficient way and develop a secondary revenue stream by selling electricity back to the gird.
