World Energy Day: Lamborghini’s Commitment to Sustainability
On World Energy Day, a global initiative promoting a more conscious and sustainable use of energy resources, Automobili Lamborghini announces completion of the expanded photovoltaic plant at the Sant’Agata Bolognese facility. Fully operational from today, the plant marks a further step in the company’s decarbonisation strategy and strengthens the site’s energy autonomy.
Lamborghini’s journey in renewable energy began in 2010 with the installation of its first photovoltaic system, later expanded to cover a total area of 15,000 m²: one of the largest in the region at the time, capable of generating over 2 million kWh per year and reducing approximately 800 tonnes of CO₂ annually.
With the newly completed expansion, which focused on the warehouse area, the overall capacity of the plant has increased further: it can now produce an additional 2.89 million kWh per year, ensuring an estimated reduction of 1,200 tonnes of CO₂ annually. The project involved the installation of 4,024 new photovoltaic panels over approximately 12,000 m² of warehouse roof, with a total installed capacity of 2.5 MWp.
"The Sant’Agata Bolognese facility is a laboratory of innovation, demonstrating how manufacturing excellence and environmental responsibility can go hand in hand," said Ranieri Niccoli, Chief Manufacturing Officer of Automobili Lamborghini. "The expansion of the photovoltaic plant, now fully operational, represents a tangible investment in sustainability and a further step forward in our decarbonisation roadmap, in the precise year we celebrate ten years of carbon neutrality at the site."
Announced on global energy awareness day, the expansion confirms Automobili Lamborghini’s commitment to systematically reducing the carbon footprint of its production site while simultaneously strengthening energy independence through renewable sources.
