188 years of Italgas

Every energy has its own story. Ours began 188 years ago, when Italgas first brought gas lighting to the streets of Turin. Since then, we have continuously looked ahead, supporting the country through major technological and energy transformations.

Across generations, our history has been marked by innovations and challenges that have significantly contributed to Italy’s economic and social development. This journey has led us to become the largest gas distribution company in Europe. Yet this is not a destination, but a starting point—and a reaffirmation of our responsibility towards a net-zero future.

Italgas’ leadership is built on a clear vision for the gas networks of tomorrow, on technological innovation, and on the tools that will enable the progressive integration of renewable gases—from biomethane to hydrogen—making the energy system safer, more efficient, and more sustainable.

Today, 188 years on, we celebrate a legacy that continues to drive our ability to innovate and shape the future of energy.

Happy Birthday, Italgas!
