Our gas distribution infrastructure plays a crucial role in supporting the energy transition of the countries in which we operate, while ensuring safety and continuity of service. The Group’s European growth and the integration of 2i Rete Gas strengthen our ability to innovate and transform networks into intelligent assets. The Strategic Plan for 2025-2031— the most significant in the Group’s history — gives concrete form to this path, directing investments toward digital infrastructures ready to accommodate renewable gases. We place technology at the service of communities, guided by a vision that creates shared value.
About us
For over 185 years we have been bringing gas to the homes of Italians. Over time, we have also established our presence in water services, energy efficiency and information technology. Today we are working to establish a fair and economically sustainable energy transition for all, citizens and businesses.
We are the European champions in the gas distribution sector and leaders in energy efficiency, information technology and the water sector
Our industrial history has significantly contributed to the economic and social development of Italy, and the experience and expertise we have gained ensure our reliability, efficiency, and continuous innovation.
The digital transformation we initiated years ago will soon make us the world’s first gas utility with a fully digitised network, essential for managing renewable gases such as biomethane, synthetic methane, and hydrogen. We envision a ‘living’ network—responsive, capable of adjusting to dynamic conditions—distributing both gas and water. The application of artificial intelligence across all our activities will drive the next phase of this transformation, accelerating the ecological transition.
With a focus on innovation and a long-term vision, we are evolving into a Network Tech Company, managing technologically advanced networks and ensuring more efficient and sustainable services for a zero-emission future.

Our role
We are committed to providing efficient and safe services to the community, constantly innovating to improve the quality of life for people. We dedicate all our energy to accelerating the ecological transition by building the networks of the future, promoting innovative and sustainable solutions, and fostering positive relationships with our stakeholders.
With our vision of the future, which is based on drivers such as innovation, sustainability, circular economy and training, the Italgas Group is progressively taking the form of a 'Network Tech Company'. In the space of a few years, from a gas company we have also become an important player in water, energy efficiency and IT, active in Italy and Greece, and considered a technological benchmark at a global level

Italgas for Transition
Our 2025–2031 Industrial Plan provides for €16.5 billion in investments, primarily driven by the development of gas distribution activities in Italy and Greece, as well as by the technological and digital upgrade of the newly acquired networks. The aim is to make these networks increasingly smart, digital, and flexible, and capable of accommodating growing shares of renewable gases.
Our activities
In addition to our historical activities related to gas distribution, we operate in the management of water services and in the energy efficiency and information technology sectors.
