Enel X is Enel Group ’ s global business providing exceptionally sustainable and innovative solutions , particularly in the arenas of renewable energy , electric mobility and energy efficiency

As a highly respected provider of innovative solutions – in areas of renewable energy , electric mobility and energy efficiency – Enel X is always striving to embrace the future and uphold its green credentials .

Sustainability clearly has a major impact on the company ' s image and reputation . Indeed , having open and honest discussions about the climate change situation is a fundamental element of Enel X ’ s agenda .
No one is more aware of the need to ‘ walk the walk ’ than the company ’ s Head of Sustainability , Nicola Tagliafierro . He reflects : “ Of course , every company wants to talk about sustainability but it is very important from my perspective , to talk again about ‘ effective sustainability ’ – to avoid the situation of clearly green washing , or circular washing .”
The company believes in the importance of communicating the metrics in terms of environmental impact , but also social impact . Consequently , there are two directions of communication .
“ Firstly , we focus on CO2 reduction , in terms of how many people are impacted and which communities are affected ,” says Nicola . “ At the same time , we need to be fair to the market , institutions and all stakeholders , by explaining the impact these initiatives have on the entire business , and not hiding behind small initiatives that do not represent the core business ,” he adds .
