Noraxis Energy is an expert player in the management of energy assets. Its first complete project was the leasing of a photovoltaic greenhouse business unit in Villasor (CA), Sardinia. The plant, one of the largest in existence, is used for the cultivation of roses; one of the park’s floral products, called the ‘Smeralda Green Show’, is listed on the Royal Flora Holland flower trading platform (Amsterdam).
In addition, Noraxis Energy provides services in the electricity and heating sector relating to the generation, transmission, distribution and final consumption stage, as well as the maintenance of energy plants, systems and equipment, and the performance of administrative activities.
Other operations in Sardinia and the rest of Italy for the development of photovoltaic plants with total capacity of over 1 GW are at an advanced stage.
The company, which is part of Tiberiade Holding, was founded in January 2020 to oversee the sector of sustainable investments in clean energy production and agricultural activities.
Noraxis Energy is committed to reducing the negative impact of fossil fuels and combating climate change by combining its expertise with technology and innovation. In the field of renewable energies, it builds and manages power plants and develops initiatives in the area of photovoltaic energy.
