EEQF- #EnjoyEuropeanQualityFood, the EU co-funded project created with the aim of spreading and increasing awareness in Europe of the quality of Italian products with designation of origin and geographical indication, has come to an end. The closing event held in Milan crowns four years of work in which we organized events, show cooking and tasting sessions involving Spain, the United Kingdom, Germany and Poland, with the aim of enhancing the products and promoting the identity and cultural diversity of the various regions, boosting the economic and social revival of the territories involved.
The six participating partners contributed to the dissemination of the cultural significance that food and wine holds in our country, testifying to the excellence that comes from the combination of the territory’s natural resources, the art of processing and human experience. During the panel discussion, moderated by journalist Antonio Picasso, speakers included Cesare Baldrighi (President Origin Italia), Giangiacomo Gallarati Scotti Bonaldi (President Federdoc), Giovanni Guarneri (#EEQF Project Leader and President Consorzio Tutela Provolone Valpadana) and Giacomo Pondini (Director of Consorzio dell’Asti and Moscato d’Asti DOCG.
We would also like to thank the Vice President of the Senate Gian Marco Centinaio, who sent us a contribution in which he emphasized how EEQF was one of the most important initiatives on the Italian scene, able to bring together different realities to make the Italian and European agri-food industry great. At the end of the meeting, guests and press took part in a pure product tasting led by sommelier Noemi Brambilla, which was followed by a light lunch with a dedicated menu.
However, not everyone knows that sometimes it is the farmers themselves who probe the possibility of installing a plant on their land and that it is possible to reconcile energy production with silvopastoral activities.
GIS – Gruppo Impianti Solari has been on this path for some time, and yet, its clean energy projects are often blocked with obvious slowdowns on the energy transition. And so, a plant that was supposed to be in production as early as 2022 still does not exist.
📌We at Consilium are happy to support GIS, since its inception, in media relations activities aimed at enhancing the Group’s reputation and outreach in the national media landscape.

Eos Investment Management, a leader in investments in energy transition and sustainable energy through infrastructure and private equity funds, has announced the sale to Obton, a Danish group specializing in investments in sustainable technologies, of an additional 2 photovoltaic plants in Italy, with a total capacity of 12 MW.
The assets, in operation since 2012 and held in the portfolio of Eos Energy Fund I, the first infrastructure fund launched by Eos Im, are capable of generating more than 16 GWh per year and meeting the annual energy needs of about 6,500 households, resulting in savings, compared to energy produced from fossil fuels, of more than 10 thousand tons of COâ‚‚. This divestment is in addition to the one already made in November 2020, for a total of 30 MW of solar plants divested by Eos Im to the Danish group.
Consilium is happy to support Eos in media relations activities, aimed at enhancing the Group’s reputation and outreach in the national media landscape.
Yesterday we were in Madrid for the first event in 2024 of the EEQF project – Enjoy European Quality Food.
A three-year project, co-funded by the European Union, which aimed to promote some certified quality Italian food products through activities and events that took place in Italy, Spain, Germany and Poland.
Commenting on the ARERA directive, experts from the app-founded by Giovanni Baroni and now becoming an energy advisor to Italians-are able to say that for now the major energy operators have not introduced any early withdrawal penalties on electricity, adding that “it is not certain that it will not happen in the future.”
Giovanni Mariotti, who traveled with us at Consilium a few weeks ago to the liveliest of Swiss cities, offers a wonderful three-day itinerary to discover Zurich’s “goodies.” On January’s Bell’Europa!
“Zurich is among the top places in the world for quality of life. Thanks in part to the rich offer of neighborhoods, monuments and museums. As well as locally-related stores and restaurants. All in a well-kept natural and urban landscape.”
