Egea Commerciale S.r.l.

Egea Commerciale S.r.l. is an Italian commercial company operating in the energy and environmental services sector, historically part of the Egea group (Egea Holding) based in Alba, in the province of Cuneo, Piedmont. The Egea group grew from a small Alba-based enterprise of the 1950s into a multiutility active in energy and environment, built on a strong territorial bond and a sustainability orientation. Egea Commerciale is the group's sales-facing entity, the vehicle through which electricity and gas offers are marketed to households and businesses under the Egea brand. The company's commercial activity is centred on the sale of "Offerte Luce & Gas" (electricity and gas offers) to retail and business customers, alongside the broader range of local services delivered by the group: energy and environmental services, infrastructure construction and network management. Its positioning is explicitly local: the group presents itself as a company present on the territory, able to respond to the different needs of customers, transferring technological innovation and economic and civil progress to the community while respecting ethics and transparency, and confirming a commitment to environmental sustainability, energy efficiency and reduced environmental impact. From its Alba headquarters — a reference point in a territory recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage site — the group coordinates and oversees activities across the whole province of Cuneo and other parts of South Piedmont. In 2024 the operational branches of the Egea group were transferred to the Iren Group, beginning an integration path aimed at making historic services more efficient while investing in local growth and people. Following that transaction, Egea Holding became wholly controlled by Iren S.p.A. and now acts as a presence and coordination entity for Iren's activities over a wide area of South Piedmont, particularly around Cuneo. In May 2025 Iren completed the acquisition of 47.23% of Egea Holding, consolidating its control. Egea Commerciale therefore operates today as part of one of Italy's largest and most dynamic multiutilities, combining Iren's technological know-how with the reliability and quality of service historically delivered to local customers and citizens.

The Egea group traces its origins to a small Alba-based enterprise of the 1950s. Over the following decades it grew into a multiutility group active in the energy and environment sectors, building its identity on a solid territorial bond and on sustainability. From its headquarters in Alba — a reference point in a territory recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage site — the group coordinated and oversaw activities across the whole province of Cuneo and other parts of South Piedmont, an area described as dynamic in entrepreneurial, social and cultural terms. Egea Commerciale S.r.l. represents the commercial arm of this group, the entity through which electricity and gas offers ("Offerte Luce & Gas") are sold to customers. The group's activities spanned the supply of energy and environmental services, the construction of infrastructure and the operation of networks, with the stated objective of favouring integrated management and accelerating the energy transition. A decisive turning point came in 2024, when the operational branches of the Egea group were transferred to the Iren Group. This began an integration path aimed at making the historic services more efficient while investing in local growth and in people. Following the transaction, Egea Holding became wholly controlled by Iren S.p.A. and took on the role of a presence and "sentinel" on the territory, overseeing the development of Iren's activities over a wide area of South Piedmont, starting from the Cuneo area. On 22 May 2025, Iren completed the acquisition of 47.23% of Egea Holding, further consolidating its control. Egea Holding today confirms Iren's specific attention to the provincial territories of South Piedmont, combining Iren's high technological know-how with the reliability and quality of service provided to customers and citizens. The group's stated values are proximity (being an actively present company able to provide solutions responding to customers' different needs), competence (transferring technological innovation and economic and civil progress to the community while respecting ethics and transparency) and sustainability (confirming its commitment to environmental sustainability, energy efficiency and reduced environmental impact).
