Taormina Smart
Globalization and technological progress are
the two forces that can shape the world of to-
day and of tomorrow. Innovation, and more
specifically the “Next Production Revolution”,
will bring great advances to our companies,
our workforces and, more generally, our so-
cieties. We are, in fact, in an era of transfor-
mation towards a different world that we can
still not entirely predict. The speed of change
is increasing exponentially, and technological
revolutions affect different fields. The combi-
ned effects of all these changes amplify each
other.
The New Production Revolution brings the
need to foster not only the growth of digital
companies but a deep interaction between in-
novation, technology and traditional sectors.
The most creative sectors are, in fact, those
who will benefit in the coming years of inte-
gration between a human component and a
technological component that does not pena-

lize employment, but rather favors their full in-
clusion within Global Value Chains. Italy aims
to take up this new opportunity by highligh-
ting the most cutting-edge technology initia-
tives and by becoming a leader in the integra-
tion of professions, trades, traditional sectors
and technologies. Over the last few months,
the policy framework has favored the streng-
thening of the innovative ecosystem and the
contamination between ICT, bio and nano-
tech sectors as well as others, such as ma-
nufacturing, engineering, design, agriculture,
environment and food. This “responsible con-
tamination” is what the world wants to see; it
is one for which investors and large internatio-
nal companies hope to see significant returns.
Based on this awareness, one of the distinctive
elements of our G7 Presidency – from the start
– has been the idea of proposing a complex
set of initiatives on the following: production
innovation, training, enhancement of scientific
research, adaptation of labor and social poli-
cies, dissemination of quality, smart, enabling
and integrated infrastructures. This path relies
upon two considerations. On the one hand,
for the first time today, we have the extraordi-
nary opportunity to make innovation a source
of prosperity and well-being for everyone,
starting from less-integrated categories. On
the other hand, digitalization and automation
force us to stimulate our production systems
but also to rethink the work of the future so
as to extend the benefits of innovation. Efforts
aim not only to cover all the geographical are-
as, but to extend it over several generations.
We have to act in the short term, but think in
the long term. We also need to reconsider
our welfare and education systems, because
if education does not keep pace with innova-
tion, disparities will only increase.
Upon taking into consideration all of the above,
the Italian Presidency launched the “Taormina
7
Smart” project. It aims to enhance human ca-
pital, education and culture, while highlighting
the transformative power of science, techno-
logical innovation and telecommunications in
a context of balanced, inclusive and sustaina-
ble growth. It is an experience designed for the
guests of the G7 Summit to let them be the
first to try innovations born from a selection
of bold and unique entrepreneurial initiatives.
A “living showcase”, described in this booklet,
should inspire a new generation of leaders and
of future consumers, but also of investors who
wants to finance concrete opportunities offe-
red by the new paradigm.

ENEL BRINGS ELECTRIC MOBILITY
TO TAORMINA G7 SUMMIT
Mobility is entering a more sustainable and ef-
ficient era. The maturity of electricity storage
technologies, the ever greater spread of rene-
wable energy sources and smart distribution
networks, in addition to the goals set by the
challenge of climate change, are transforming
the electric car into the mobility of the new
millennium.
Enel is leveraging an “Open Power” approach,
where innovation and sustainability are key pil-
lars of the Group and its business, to play a le-
ading role in e-mobility.
For this reason, Enel is present at the Taormi-
na G7 Summit with two initiatives in the field
of electric mobility: first, the company has in-
stalled 15 stations to recharge small electric
vehicles to be used in the historic center of the
Sicilian city. Secondly, in Taormina’s Piazza 9
Aprile, Enel is presenting its innovative Vehicle-
to-Grid (V2G) technology that enables electric
cars to send the power that they are not using
to the grid. Visitors and participants at the G7
meeting have the opportunity to see how the
Nissan Leaf, connected to Enel’s V2G column,
returns its stored and unused power by lighting
up an LED wall.
Thanks to the V2G charging system, e-cars can
play a key role in the electrical system. Not only
are they charged with the power they need to
move, but they also become grid-connected
storage systems. When parked, cars are availa-
ble to balance the grid by returning unused po-
wer where and when it is needed. V2G techno-
logy therefore contributes to the development
of electric mobility and non-programmable
energy flows, i.e. the power produced from re-
newable sources, which now have a solution
for storage and use. The technology benefits
the electrical system, the environment and car
owners, who put their vehicle at the service
of the grid. For the first time in the world, Enel
and Nissan are testing the operation of the V2G
system with more than 80 chargers installed in
Italy, Denmark, the United Kingdom, Germany
and France.

FCA’S RESPONSIBLE COMMITMENT
TO GENUINELY SUSTAINABLE MOBILITY
Environment-friendly mobility is a major priority
for today’s automotive industry. Cars must ensu-
re freedom of movement while also protecting
the environment.
Fiat Chrysler Automobiles’ commitment in this
area is founded on the awareness that there is no
one-size-fits-all solution for sustainable mobility.
While conventional engines will obviously con-
tinue to play an important role in coming years,
it is equally clear that only by combining these
technologies with alternative fuels can tangible,
immediate results be achieved.
FCA was the first carmaker to commit to a fac-
tory-made methane vehicle (the Marea, in 1997),
and it now has the widest methane range on
the market, from the small Panda and Ypsilon
to the Ducato van. For twenty years, Fiat was
the leading European company in Compressed
Natural Gas (CNG) car sales and, overall, FCA
has sold over 730,000 vehicles powered in this
way.
Today, natural gas is the cleanest, cheapest fuel
on the market and the only real alternative to the
use of petrol and diesel. FCA is convinced that
sustainability also implies accessibility: a natural
gas vehicle offers the best cost/environmental
protection ratio compared to the conventio-
nal fuel equivalent. As well as encouraging the
gradual expansion of sustainable mobility, the
natural gas traction sector also generates con-
siderable benefits for the Italian economy,
employing about 20,000 people in component
manufacture, after-market services and filling
stations and increasing households’ spending
power thanks to the savings provided by such
vehicles.
Another important factor is bio-methane, with
exactly the same characteristics as natural gas
but made from renewable sources with no en-
vironmental impact. An excellent solution for
the mobility of the future, it is already available
for use today, with even more savings on fuel
costs. The difference lies in the environmental
impact, especially the well to wheel footprint.
A Fiat Panda running on natural gas generates
31% fewer emissions than the equivalent pe-
trol model; if 40% bio-methane is added to the
fuel, this value rises to 57%, reducing pollutant
emissions to the level achieved with an electric
car charged using today’s European energy mix.
What’s more, if the Fiat Panda is operated on
100% bio-methane, CO2 emissions can be cut
by as much as 97%: basically, the same as for
an electric car charged only with electricity from
renewable sources such as wind power.
This commitment to sustainability, innovation
and research for the continual evolution of the
commercial mix makes FCA fitting partner
for the Taormina Summit. A complete range
of cars – Fiat 500L that run on natural gas, as
15
well as electric Fiat 500e, Alfa Romeo Stelvio,
Giulia and Giulietta, and Fiat Ducato models
– will provide the fleet for the Summit and the
subsequent collateral events. These eco-friendly
vehicles are capable of responding to all the or-
ganizers’ needs, just as they satisfy all the requi-
rements of existing or future final customers.
Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is planning a
further expansion of its range of natural gas
vehicles, already one of the world’s most
complete. FCA is the ideal partner for travelling
new roads to more and more sophisticated
intelligent mobility solutions: cars with
low environmental impact and high safety
technology content lead the way in offering
mobility and transport solutions designed
today for the needs of tomorrow, at a price
accessible to all.

IVECO and IVECO BUS – brands of CNH Indu-
strial – design, manufacture and market a wide
range of light, medium and heavy commercial
vehicles. These include off-road trucks, vehicles
for off-road missions, schoolbuses, intercity and
tourism coaches, standard and articulated city bu-
ses (including BRT dedicated versions), and mini-
buses for all passenger transport missions.
The brands are driven by their commitment to
sustainability. The relentless focus on innovation
and new technologies has made these brands
leaders on the European market for alternative
fuel vehicles. There is currently a running park of
more than 16,000 IVECO alternative traction
vehicles, which include 6,000 dedicated to pu-
blic transport. In 2016, more than 900 natural gas
vehicles were delivered to customers and 25% of
low-floor city bus units produced by IVECO BUS
in Europe were powered by natural gas.
IVECO is the only manufacturer that offers a full
range of natural gas models, from light com-
mercial vehicles to heavy-duty long-haul trucks,
as well as buses. IVECO’s product strategy aims
to provide its customers with vehicles that ren-
der them more sustainable – both for the envi-
ronment and for their bottom line.
In the heavy line, the New Stralis NP (Natural Po-
wer) breaks new ground in long-haul sustainable
transport: the first natural gas truck specifically
designed for long-haul transport, it delivers the
same output and torque as its diesel equivalent,
together with low Total Cost of Ownership. With a
record 1,500 km autonomy range, it is made for
long distance haulage and, thanks to its quiet en-
gine, has the added advantage of being suitable
for night time deliveries in urban locations.
In the medium line, the Eurocargo NP is already
compliant with Euro VI step C emission require-
ments, and it can access restricted areas in city
centers, a key advantage in multi-drop missions.
It is also extremely quiet, which makes it perfect
for night-time urban services.
In the light line, the Daily NP runs on Compres-
sed Natural Gas, providing an advantage in ur-
ban areas with restricted traffic for its clean and
quiet operation, while the Daily Electric offers a
silent, zero-emissions solution.
In the collective passenger transport business,
IVECO BUS has been investing in hybrid and na-
tural gas technologies for 20 years. As a result,
IVECO BUS is firmly in the lead of the CNG bus
market. As the industry’s energy transition towards
alternative traction solutions accelerates, IVECO
BUS is meeting fast-growing demand. In 2016, for
the second year running, it produced more CNG,
biomethane and hybrid buses than diesel units.
IVECO and IVECO BUS are mobility partners of
the Taormina G7 Summit, under the Italian Pre-
sidency. At the event, IVECO BUS will provide th-
ree Daily Minibuses, two powered by Natural
Gas and one electric, for the internal mobility of
the delegations during the two days of work.
IVECO BUS designed the “minibus” version of the
19
Daily to combine the long-recognized qualities of
the Daily with all the expertise of a passenger tran-
sportation industry leader.
The Daily Minibus offers a wide range of solutions
designed for different types of missions: tourist,
intercity and school bus. Like the other models of
the Daily family, the Minibus is available with diesel
Euro VI engines ranging from 146 to 180 hp, a 136
hp natural gas engine, and a fully electric 80 kW
motor.
The Daily Minibus “Natural Power”, features su-
stainable CNG technology and delivers the same
performance and transient response as its diesel
equivalent. The 3 liter engine, with its 136 hp and
best-in-class 350 Nm torque, meets all needs.
IVECO BUS also has a strong presence in sustai-
nable energy thanks to its Daily Minibus Electric.
This “zero emissions” vehicle is perfect for city
center activities and shuttle services. This 16-sea-
ter is 7.12 meters in length.

SUSTAINABLE AND INNOVATIVE FABRICS
FROM CITRUS JUICE BY-PRODUCTS
Orange Fiber is the Italian company that has
patented and creates sustainable fabrics for
the Fashion Industry from citrus juice by-
products.
The beauty of Mediterranean nature, the
creativity of Sicily and the excellence of
Made in Italy production are the ingredients
of this unique silky and soft material, desig-
ned to provide innovation and sustainability
to fashion.
Following a collaboration with the Politecni-
co di Milano University which began back in
2012, a process was developed to create an
high quality fabric using leftovers from the
citrus transformation industry. Such lefto-
vers amount to more than 700,000 tons a
year in Italy, and would otherwise have to
be disposed of, with an environmental and
economic cost.
The innovative process was patented in
2013 and extended in international PCT the
following year. In 2014 the first prototypes
of the citrus fabric were presented to the
public; in 2015 the pilot plant was opened
in Sicily, and in April 2017 the first fashion
collection made with Orange Fiber was pre-
sented by the prestigious fashion house Sal-
vatore Ferragamo.
Sicilian roots and international ambitions
represent the soul of a young and determi-
ned company. In the last few years, Orange
Fiber has been awarded with a number of
prizes by national and international institu-
tions for its impact and vision, such as the
Global Change Award in 2015 by the H&M
Foundation, the Prize For Innovation by ADI
DESIGN INDEX in 2015 by ADI Associazione
per il disegno Industriale, the nomination for
Compasso d’Oro in 2016 and the National
Prize for Innovation “Premio dei Premi” for
Italian design, presented by the President of
the Italian Republic Sergio Mattarella.
Sustainability and innovation, blended with
the quality of Made in Italy production, di-
stinguish Orange Fiber products. The textile
company has become a point of reference
for all players in the fashion industry willing
to promote environmental sustainability and
product exclusivity.
In the unique and fascinating town of Ta-
ormina, the distinguished G7 guests will be
guided on a sensorial journey through the
production process of this unique material,
discovering a different Sicily, land of tradi-
tion, innovation, dreams and spirit.
“Orange Fiber represents our commitment
to a green and ethically correct fashion. We
dream of making a difference and of contri-
buting to a process of sustainable economic,
social and environmental development.”

This is how Adriana Santanocito and Enri-
ca Arena – Sicilian co-founders of Orange
Fiber, who have yet to turn 40 – describe
their unique and innovative world of Made
in Italy, which is appreciated throughout the
world.

Energy by O.S.C.A.R.
25
Energy by OSCAR S.r.l. is a start-up
founded in 2014 by four under-30s from
Puglia: Giuseppe Spadone, Joris Gadaleta,
Francesco Fusco and Caterina Ranieri.
The company holds two patents and is
enrolled in the special section of the In-
novative Start-up Registry. It has also won
a Smart & Start grant (launched by the
Italian Ministry of Economic Development
and Invitalia S.p.A. as an incentive for new
hi-tech companies). Furthermore, in 2016,
Energy by OSCAR was a guest of Invitalia
at the Maker Faire Rome, Europe’s largest
innovation fair.
The unique strength of this start-up is its
strong connection with Southern Italy, and
with the city of Bari in particular. Colla-
borations have focused on the Puglia re-
gion, a land rich in opportunity. From the
outset, Energy by OSCAR has taken advan-
tage of the experience of local compa-
nies already strategically structured on the
market (above all, Stamplast Group S.r.l.,
which is specialized in thermoforming and
injection).
The returns on the courageous choice
to stay connected with Puglia have been
more than positive: just over one year after
hitting the market, Energy by OSCAR can
already boast partnerships with Aeropor-
ti di Puglia S.p.A., Ferrovie Appulo Lucane
S.r.l., Bifest - Bari International Film Festi-
val, Giffoni Film Festival, Samsung, and the
G7 Finance Minister Meeting in Bari. The
development of Energy by OSCAR is also
strongly connected to the academic en-
vironment: the start-up collaborates with
the Future Lab - BaLab contamination lab,
promoted by the University of Bari - Aldo
Moro and the Polytechnic University of
Bari.
OSCAR is a multifunctional armored to-
tem that allows users to recharge and
disinfect portable electronic devices in
public places for free and in total safety.
Each totem is composed of eight armored
cases, inside which are allocated char-
ging connectors for the most commonly
used devices and a schuko socket. Access
is controlled by each user’s biometric fin-
gerprint recognition. Users interact with
the system through a 23 inch interactive
touch screen, useful also for transmitting
various types of digital content and appli-
cations s well as customizable question-
naires. In addition to safely recharging
devices, OSCAR disinfects them with UV
lamps, whose cold light cleans exposed
surfaces.
Energy by OSCAR, in collaboration with
the 2017 Italian G7 Presidency and within
the Taormina Smart project, will install 10
totems around Taormina, to be operatio-
27
nal on May 26 and 27. Thanks to OSCAR,
delegates and journalists will be able to re-
charge their devices and consult the web
app “G7 Experience” as well as the Italian
Presidency’s web site, through custom sof-
tware, designed specifically for the Sum-
mit.

ISCLEANAIR
AIR POLLUTION
ABATEMENT
33
SOMETIMES WE FORGET HOW IMPORTANT
THE MERE ACT OF BREATHING IS
Breathing clean air is life. It is everything, for
today and for tomorrow. The environment in
which we live depends on it. For this reason,
ISCLEANAIR acts to protect the environment
and to improve the air quality around us.
“Made in Italy” science, creativity, innovation
and genius promote the “Clean Air” culture.
They allow us to rethink and redesign indu-
strial and working places and urban spaces to
spread the benefits of clean air and to make
the environments in which we live and work
healthier in order to guarantee an adequate
quality of life.
With this vision and aim, and after decades of
technological development focused mainly
on emission sources or on the source of the
effluents, in 2010 Giuseppe Spanto and Paolo
Tripodi created the APA (Air Pollution Abate-
ment). This new system and innovative philo-
sophy aims to abate atmospheric pollution of
anthropogenic origin and to deliver tangible
answers for emerging energy efficiency needs
– with regards to both social and economic
aspects – at a global level.
APA fosters the creation of urban regeneration
and requalification projects, in order to pro-
vide responses to society’s needs. Through
specific analyses of pollution trends, ener-
gy consumption and climate change, in real
time, environmental remediation is assured
and further corrective actions and decisions
encouraged. Once air quality is improved, the
device is turned off.
APA is all of the following: filter-less, because
it uses only simple water and mechanical pro-
cesses to abate a wide range of harmful pol-
lutants; modular, as it adapts to the specific
site and installation requirements; intelligent,
because it has a sensorial structure to analyze
environmental elements. Furthermore, it ena-
bles Internet of Things services. APA produ-
ces no waste. It is scalable and economical,
because it is designed to be used efficiently
wherever needed (it works both indoors and
outdoors, abating 99.7% of pollutants in a clo-
sed space and 90% outside). Its total cost of
ownership is also as much as 7 to 10 times
lower than other existing technologies.
APA is 100% “Made in Italy”. It is protected by
a number of international patents, and has re-
ceived several awards as well as recognition
from peers, in Italy and abroad.
During the G7 Summit, and as part of the Ta-
ormina Smart framework (and in cooperation
with Olivetti S.p.A., one of the most famous
brands in the world), ISCLEANAIR will arrange
an experimentation and demonstration site for
the Italian G7 Presidency. Three APA systems
will be installed, with the design and features
of a multimedia totem. These 3 totems will be
35
placed close to removable structures and take
the shape of a “bus stop”. The aim is to crea-
te a hub at Giardini Naxos’ “Le Ninfe” parking
lot, where journalists and delegates will be co-
ming and going throughout the event.

The eco-friendly G7
Welcome kit
41
In recent years – as people have become more
keenly aware of the environment and effective
at promoting the development of new, eco-
friendly production models – products, com-
modities and technologies have undergone a
transformation in accordance with environmen-
tally sustainable principles. Among the solutions
available on the Italian market that pursue the
main goal of environmental protection, the G7
Presidency has chosen the eco-friendly pro-
ducts provided by GGM Business Promotion
S.r.l. and Alisea - SU S.r.l., thereby reiterating the
Italian Presidency’s commitment to adopt new
models of consumption and development, fo-
stering economic and environmental sustaina-
bility.
The “Welcome kit” for each G7 delegate con-
tains a recycled plastic folder manufactured
from recycled PET drink bottles in a process
certified by the quality brand Remade in Italy –
the first eco-label accredited to verify the “cir-
cularity” of products made from secondary raw
materials. The folder contains a pen, also made
of recycled plastic, and a recycled pad manu-
factured from selected waste paper, bleached
without any chlorine or chlorine derivatives.
The welcome kit also contains a Perpetua pen-
cil set, produced by Alisea. This is made in Zan-
tech®, an innovative material of 80% graphi-
te – a waste of the Italian industrial production
of electrodes for the electro-erosion process
– combined with a chemical compound, with
no protective varnishes, glues or additional pro-
cessing. The pencils, distributed in the three co-
lors of the Italian flag and in a recycled paper
packaging, combine recycled graphite and na-
tural rubber treated without industrial dyes, in a
process made entirely in Italy, registered under
European Patent.
The main characteristic that distinguishes these
products is the reduction in consumption of
energy and raw materials. They do their part in
supportinglow-environmental-impactpractices.
The current socioeconomic situation requires an
appropriate organizational restructuring in the
use of increasingly scarce resources. This is a key
dynamic in the development of technological
innovation and in the consolidation of a
commonenvironmentalawareness.Makingthe
production processes “green” means accepting
the crucial challenge of the green economy.

Taormina Smart Globalization and Technological Progress Shape the Future

  • 2.
  • 3.
  • 4. Globalization and technological progress are the two forces that can shape the world of to- day and of tomorrow. Innovation, and more specifically the “Next Production Revolution”, will bring great advances to our companies, our workforces and, more generally, our so- cieties. We are, in fact, in an era of transfor- mation towards a different world that we can still not entirely predict. The speed of change is increasing exponentially, and technological revolutions affect different fields. The combi- ned effects of all these changes amplify each other. The New Production Revolution brings the need to foster not only the growth of digital companies but a deep interaction between in- novation, technology and traditional sectors. The most creative sectors are, in fact, those who will benefit in the coming years of inte- gration between a human component and a technological component that does not pena- Introduzione
  • 5. 5 lize employment, but rather favors their full in- clusion within Global Value Chains. Italy aims to take up this new opportunity by highligh- ting the most cutting-edge technology initia- tives and by becoming a leader in the integra- tion of professions, trades, traditional sectors and technologies. Over the last few months, the policy framework has favored the streng- thening of the innovative ecosystem and the contamination between ICT, bio and nano- tech sectors as well as others, such as ma- nufacturing, engineering, design, agriculture, environment and food. This “responsible con- tamination” is what the world wants to see; it is one for which investors and large internatio- nal companies hope to see significant returns. Based on this awareness, one of the distinctive elements of our G7 Presidency – from the start – has been the idea of proposing a complex set of initiatives on the following: production innovation, training, enhancement of scientific
  • 6. research, adaptation of labor and social poli- cies, dissemination of quality, smart, enabling and integrated infrastructures. This path relies upon two considerations. On the one hand, for the first time today, we have the extraordi- nary opportunity to make innovation a source of prosperity and well-being for everyone, starting from less-integrated categories. On the other hand, digitalization and automation force us to stimulate our production systems but also to rethink the work of the future so as to extend the benefits of innovation. Efforts aim not only to cover all the geographical are- as, but to extend it over several generations. We have to act in the short term, but think in the long term. We also need to reconsider our welfare and education systems, because if education does not keep pace with innova- tion, disparities will only increase. Upon taking into consideration all of the above, the Italian Presidency launched the “Taormina
  • 7. 7 Smart” project. It aims to enhance human ca- pital, education and culture, while highlighting the transformative power of science, techno- logical innovation and telecommunications in a context of balanced, inclusive and sustaina- ble growth. It is an experience designed for the guests of the G7 Summit to let them be the first to try innovations born from a selection of bold and unique entrepreneurial initiatives. A “living showcase”, described in this booklet, should inspire a new generation of leaders and of future consumers, but also of investors who wants to finance concrete opportunities offe- red by the new paradigm.

  • 9. 9 ENEL BRINGS ELECTRIC MOBILITY TO TAORMINA G7 SUMMIT Mobility is entering a more sustainable and ef- ficient era. The maturity of electricity storage technologies, the ever greater spread of rene- wable energy sources and smart distribution networks, in addition to the goals set by the challenge of climate change, are transforming the electric car into the mobility of the new millennium. Enel is leveraging an “Open Power” approach, where innovation and sustainability are key pil- lars of the Group and its business, to play a le- ading role in e-mobility. For this reason, Enel is present at the Taormi- na G7 Summit with two initiatives in the field of electric mobility: first, the company has in- stalled 15 stations to recharge small electric vehicles to be used in the historic center of the Sicilian city. Secondly, in Taormina’s Piazza 9 Aprile, Enel is presenting its innovative Vehicle- to-Grid (V2G) technology that enables electric cars to send the power that they are not using to the grid. Visitors and participants at the G7 meeting have the opportunity to see how the Nissan Leaf, connected to Enel’s V2G column, returns its stored and unused power by lighting up an LED wall. Thanks to the V2G charging system, e-cars can play a key role in the electrical system. Not only are they charged with the power they need to move, but they also become grid-connected storage systems. When parked, cars are availa- ble to balance the grid by returning unused po- wer where and when it is needed. V2G techno- logy therefore contributes to the development of electric mobility and non-programmable energy flows, i.e. the power produced from re- newable sources, which now have a solution for storage and use. The technology benefits the electrical system, the environment and car

  • 12. FCA
  • 13. 13 FCA’S RESPONSIBLE COMMITMENT TO GENUINELY SUSTAINABLE MOBILITY Environment-friendly mobility is a major priority for today’s automotive industry. Cars must ensu- re freedom of movement while also protecting the environment. Fiat Chrysler Automobiles’ commitment in this area is founded on the awareness that there is no one-size-fits-all solution for sustainable mobility. While conventional engines will obviously con- tinue to play an important role in coming years, it is equally clear that only by combining these technologies with alternative fuels can tangible, immediate results be achieved. FCA was the first carmaker to commit to a fac- tory-made methane vehicle (the Marea, in 1997), and it now has the widest methane range on the market, from the small Panda and Ypsilon to the Ducato van. For twenty years, Fiat was the leading European company in Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) car sales and, overall, FCA has sold over 730,000 vehicles powered in this way. Today, natural gas is the cleanest, cheapest fuel on the market and the only real alternative to the use of petrol and diesel. FCA is convinced that sustainability also implies accessibility: a natural gas vehicle offers the best cost/environmental protection ratio compared to the conventio- nal fuel equivalent. As well as encouraging the gradual expansion of sustainable mobility, the natural gas traction sector also generates con- siderable benefits for the Italian economy, employing about 20,000 people in component manufacture, after-market services and filling stations and increasing households’ spending power thanks to the savings provided by such vehicles. Another important factor is bio-methane, with exactly the same characteristics as natural gas but made from renewable sources with no en-
  • 14. vironmental impact. An excellent solution for the mobility of the future, it is already available for use today, with even more savings on fuel costs. The difference lies in the environmental impact, especially the well to wheel footprint. A Fiat Panda running on natural gas generates 31% fewer emissions than the equivalent pe- trol model; if 40% bio-methane is added to the fuel, this value rises to 57%, reducing pollutant emissions to the level achieved with an electric car charged using today’s European energy mix. What’s more, if the Fiat Panda is operated on 100% bio-methane, CO2 emissions can be cut by as much as 97%: basically, the same as for an electric car charged only with electricity from renewable sources such as wind power. This commitment to sustainability, innovation and research for the continual evolution of the commercial mix makes FCA fitting partner for the Taormina Summit. A complete range of cars – Fiat 500L that run on natural gas, as
  • 15. 15 well as electric Fiat 500e, Alfa Romeo Stelvio, Giulia and Giulietta, and Fiat Ducato models – will provide the fleet for the Summit and the subsequent collateral events. These eco-friendly vehicles are capable of responding to all the or- ganizers’ needs, just as they satisfy all the requi- rements of existing or future final customers. Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is planning a further expansion of its range of natural gas vehicles, already one of the world’s most complete. FCA is the ideal partner for travelling new roads to more and more sophisticated intelligent mobility solutions: cars with low environmental impact and high safety technology content lead the way in offering mobility and transport solutions designed today for the needs of tomorrow, at a price accessible to all.

These include off-road trucks, vehicles for off-road missions, schoolbuses, intercity and tourism coaches, standard and articulated city bu- ses (including BRT dedicated versions), and mini- buses for all passenger transport missions. The brands are driven by their commitment to sustainability. The relentless focus on innovation and new technologies has made these brands leaders on the European market for alternative fuel vehicles. There is currently a running park of more than 16,000 IVECO alternative traction vehicles, which include 6,000 dedicated to pu- blic transport. In 2016, more than 900 natural gas vehicles were delivered to customers and 25% of low-floor city bus units produced by IVECO BUS in Europe were powered by natural gas. IVECO is the only manufacturer that offers a full range of natural gas models, from light com- mercial vehicles to heavy-duty long-haul trucks, as well as buses. IVECO’s product strategy aims to provide its customers with vehicles that ren- der them more sustainable – both for the envi- ronment and for their bottom line. In the heavy line, the New Stralis NP (Natural Po- wer) breaks new ground in long-haul sustainable transport: the first natural gas truck specifically designed for long-haul transport, it delivers the same output and torque as its diesel equivalent, together with low Total Cost of Ownership. With a record 1,500 km autonomy range, it is made for long distance haulage and, thanks to its quiet en- gine, has the added advantage of being suitable for night time deliveries in urban locations. In the medium line, the Eurocargo NP is already compliant with Euro VI step C emission require- ments, and it can access restricted areas in city centers, a key advantage in multi-drop missions. It is also extremely quiet, which makes it perfect for night-time urban services.
  • 18. In the light line, the Daily NP runs on Compres- sed Natural Gas, providing an advantage in ur- ban areas with restricted traffic for its clean and quiet operation, while the Daily Electric offers a silent, zero-emissions solution. In the collective passenger transport business, IVECO BUS has been investing in hybrid and na- tural gas technologies for 20 years. As a result, IVECO BUS is firmly in the lead of the CNG bus market. As the industry’s energy transition towards alternative traction solutions accelerates, IVECO BUS is meeting fast-growing demand. In 2016, for the second year running, it produced more CNG, biomethane and hybrid buses than diesel units. IVECO and IVECO BUS are mobility partners of the Taormina G7 Summit, under the Italian Pre- sidency. At the event, IVECO BUS will provide th- ree Daily Minibuses, two powered by Natural Gas and one electric, for the internal mobility of the delegations during the two days of work. IVECO BUS designed the “minibus” version of the
  • 19. 19 Daily to combine the long-recognized qualities of the Daily with all the expertise of a passenger tran- sportation industry leader. The Daily Minibus offers a wide range of solutions designed for different types of missions: tourist, intercity and school bus.

  • 21. 21 SUSTAINABLE AND INNOVATIVE FABRICS FROM CITRUS JUICE BY-PRODUCTS Orange Fiber is the Italian company that has patented and creates sustainable fabrics for the Fashion Industry from citrus juice by- products. The beauty of Mediterranean nature, the creativity of Sicily and the excellence of Made in Italy production are the ingredients of this unique silky and soft material, desig- ned to provide innovation and sustainability to fashion. Following a collaboration with the Politecni- co di Milano University which began back in 2012, a process was developed to create an high quality fabric using leftovers from the citrus transformation industry. Such lefto- vers amount to more than 700,000 tons a year in Italy, and would otherwise have to be disposed of, with an environmental and economic cost. The innovative process was patented in 2013 and extended in international PCT the following year. In 2014 the first prototypes of the citrus fabric were presented to the public; in 2015 the pilot plant was opened in Sicily, and in April 2017 the first fashion collection made with Orange Fiber was pre- sented by the prestigious fashion house Sal- vatore Ferragamo. Sicilian roots and international ambitions represent the soul of a young and determi- ned company. In the last few years, Orange Fiber has been awarded with a number of prizes by national and international institu- tions for its impact and vision, such as the Global Change Award in 2015 by the H&M Foundation, the Prize For Innovation by ADI DESIGN INDEX in 2015 by ADI Associazione per il disegno Industriale, the nomination for Compasso d’Oro in 2016 and the National

  • 25. 25 Energy by OSCAR S.r.l. is a start-up founded in 2014 by four under-30s from Puglia: Giuseppe Spadone, Joris Gadaleta, Francesco Fusco and Caterina Ranieri. The company holds two patents and is enrolled in the special section of the In- novative Start-up Registry. It has also won a Smart & Start grant (launched by the Italian Ministry of Economic Development and Invitalia S.p.A. as an incentive for new hi-tech companies). Furthermore, in 2016, Energy by OSCAR was a guest of Invitalia at the Maker Faire Rome, Europe’s largest innovation fair. The unique strength of this start-up is its strong connection with Southern Italy, and with the city of Bari in particular. Colla- borations have focused on the Puglia re- gion, a land rich in opportunity. From the outset, Energy by OSCAR has taken advan- tage of the experience of local compa- nies already strategically structured on the market (above all, Stamplast Group S.r.l., which is specialized in thermoforming and injection). The returns on the courageous choice to stay connected with Puglia have been more than positive: just over one year after hitting the market, Energy by OSCAR can already boast partnerships with Aeropor- ti di Puglia S.p.A., Ferrovie Appulo Lucane S.r.l., Bifest - Bari International Film Festi- val, Giffoni Film Festival, Samsung, and the G7 Finance Minister Meeting in Bari. The development of Energy by OSCAR is also strongly connected to the academic en- vironment: the start-up collaborates with the Future Lab - BaLab contamination lab, promoted by the University of Bari - Aldo Moro and the Polytechnic University of Bari. OSCAR is a multifunctional armored to-

  • 33. 33 SOMETIMES WE FORGET HOW IMPORTANT THE MERE ACT OF BREATHING IS Breathing clean air is life. It is everything, for today and for tomorrow. The environment in which we live depends on it. For this reason, ISCLEANAIR acts to protect the environment and to improve the air quality around us. “Made in Italy” science, creativity, innovation and genius promote the “Clean Air” culture. They allow us to rethink and redesign indu- strial and working places and urban spaces to spread the benefits of clean air and to make the environments in which we live and work healthier in order to guarantee an adequate quality of life. With this vision and aim, and after decades of technological development focused mainly on emission sources or on the source of the effluents, in 2010 Giuseppe Spanto and Paolo Tripodi created the APA (Air Pollution Abate- ment). This new system and innovative philo- sophy aims to abate atmospheric pollution of anthropogenic origin and to deliver tangible answers for emerging energy efficiency needs – with regards to both social and economic aspects – at a global level. APA fosters the creation of urban regeneration and requalification projects, in order to pro- vide responses to society’s needs. Through specific analyses of pollution trends, ener- gy consumption and climate change, in real time, environmental remediation is assured and further corrective actions and decisions encouraged. Once air quality is improved, the device is turned off. APA is all of the following: filter-less, because it uses only simple water and mechanical pro- cesses to abate a wide range of harmful pol- lutants; modular, as it adapts to the specific site and installation requirements; intelligent, because it has a sensorial structure to analyze
  • 34. environmental elements. Furthermore, it ena- bles Internet of Things services. APA produ- ces no waste. It is scalable and economical, because it is designed to be used efficiently wherever needed (it works both indoors and outdoors, abating 99.7% of pollutants in a clo- sed space and 90% outside). Its total cost of ownership is also as much as 7 to 10 times lower than other existing technologies. APA is 100% “Made in Italy”. It is protected by a number of international patents, and has re- ceived several awards as well as recognition from peers, in Italy and abroad. During the G7 Summit, and as part of the Ta- ormina Smart framework (and in cooperation with Olivetti S.p.A., one of the most famous brands in the world), ISCLEANAIR will arrange an experimentation and demonstration site for the Italian G7 Presidency. Three APA systems will be installed, with the design and features of a multimedia totem. These 3 totems will be
