Reggio Emilia, 13 October 2021 — Today Iren Smart Solutions SpA, wholly owned by Iren SpA through Iren Energia, signed the contract for the acquisition of 100% of the share capital of Bosch Energy and Building Solutions Italy Srl, a company operating in the energy efficiency sector also in quality of ESCo (Energy Service Company) in the design, construction and management of integrated heating, air conditioning and cogeneration systems for public and private customers. Bosch Energy and Building Solutions Italy Srl also manages significant contracts in the hospital sector, a market segment in which Iren Smart Solutions is not currently present.

The acquired company operates mainly in northern Italy.
Future growth of the profitability of Bosch Energy and Building Solutions Italy Srl is expected thanks to the commercial actions and the ambitious technological and design development plans that Iren Smart Solutions will be able to integrate into its range of services offered.
The cash out of the transaction is subject to price adjustment due to the value of the net financial position and the working capital at the time of closing.
The Chairman of the Iren Group, Renato Boero, declared "The growth operation through external lines just concluded allows Iren to expand the activities offered in the field of energy efficiency and to take on a primary role in the national context, characterized by the desire to improve the sustainability and resilience of the economic system and ensure a fair and inclusive environmental transition.
