Athens, December 4, 2025 \u2013 Italgas reaffirms its commitment to Greece\u2019s energy development and, through its new 2025\u20132031 Strategic Plan, has approved \u20ac1 billion in investments aimed at expanding and digitalising the country\u2019s gas distribution network. The implementation of the Plan is entrusted to Enaon, the company responsible for gas distribution in Greece.<\/p>\n

The Plan includes the extension of distribution networks into areas not yet served, creating the conditions to foster the development and integration of renewable gases \u2013 such as biomethane \u2013 in order to accelerate the decarbonisation of energy molecules. By 2031, over 2,500 km of new networks are expected to be built, more than 2,200 km of which at low pressure \u2013 38% co-funded with NSRF resources \u2013 with the remainder at medium pressure, primarily intended for supplying gas to industrial customers.<\/p>\n

Alongside infrastructure development, part of the investment is earmarked for the advanced digitalisation of assets and operational processes. The Plan provides for the integration of Group ICT platforms, the adoption of new solutions for field service management, and the application across Enaon\u2019s network of artificial intelligence technologies already deployed in Italy.<\/p>\n

Additional enhancements are also planned for the Athens Command and Control Centre, already operational, which ensures continuous monitoring and remote management of the infrastructure. New supervision systems and sensors will be installed at pressure regulation stations as well. The digital transformation plan also includes the completion of the programme to replace traditional meters with \u201cH2-ready\u201d smart meters, due to begin in the third quarter of 2026.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith Enaon we are building in Greece a fully digital infrastructure, monitored and managed in real time through the new Athens Command and Control Centre. The integration of the DANA platform and the installation of \u2018H2-ready\u2019 smart meters will enable the rapid deployment of renewable gases. This pathway is supported by a significant investment plan that strengthens our commitment to the safety, sustainability and competitiveness of the country\u2019s energy system,\u201d said Paolo Gallo, CEO of Italgas<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Thanks to the recent activation of the network, the areas in Western Macedonia, Central Macedonia Central Greece, Western Greece, and Epirus (Florina Kastoria, Veria, Alexandria, Karpenisi, Amfissa, the industrial zone of Patras and within December 2025 Industrial Zone of Epirus are now steadily supplied with natural gas. This marks an important step in the implementation of co-funded, from Greece and European Union with NSRF resources, projects. A significant increase in customers is expected, rising from 639,000 in 2025 to nearly 1 million by 2031. This growth will be accompanied by improved service quality, greater network efficiency and a substantial contribution to the country\u2019s energy security.<\/p>\n
