Maserati Energia

What Maserati Energia does

Maserati Energia S.r.l. operates an industrial composting facility in Sarmato (Piacenza), Italy, that processes the organic fraction of municipal solid waste (FORSU), vegetable waste from pruning, and special non-hazardous waste from the food industry into Ammendante Compostato Misto (ACM), a certified mixed composted soil amendment. The facility, which has an authorized maximum treatment capacity of 50,000 tonnes per year, uses a closed biocelle (biotunnel) aerobic biological treatment system with PLC-monitored forced-air insufflation across a four-phase process (mixing, grinding/shredding, biological treatment, refinement). Output ACM is sold directly to agricultural and viticultural businesses for soil amendment, in bulk to fertilizer-industry players that blend it with peat substitutes for retail distribution, and at the facility gate to hobby gardeners. The company is also authorized under D.Lgs 387/2003 to produce electricity from biogas generated on-site.

Founded in 1960 by Giancarlo Maserati as an excavation and earthmoving firm, the company pivoted to environmental services in 1987 when it obtained authorization to build and operate a composting center for sugar beet processing sludge. The current FORSU-focused plant was commissioned in 2009 under the provincial waste plan of Piacenza. The firm is registered as a Fertilizer Manufacturer (n. 893/2009) under D.Lgs 75/2010 and holds registration in the Albo Nazionale Gestori Ambientali (cat. 8). In November 2025, Maserati Energia was integrated into Elevion Group, a European provider of end-to-end decarbonization and energy efficiency solutions operating across 13+ markets through 80+ companies, with the explicit intent of strengthening Elevion's green gas production chain in Italy. The company is also a member of Consorzio Italiano Compostatori (CIC). Revenue, headcount, and detailed financials are not disclosed; the firm reports 11-50 employees.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves7 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Regional players

• Salerno Energia Ambiente: Salerno Energia Ambiente operates composting and waste management facilities in southern Italy. Similar operational model in organic waste treatment but geographically distant from Maserati Energia's northern Italian footprint.

Direct peers

• Waste Italia: Waste Italia operates organic waste collection, composting, and treatment services in multiple Italian regions. Directly comparable in the FORSU-to-compost value chain, with overlapping customer segments in agriculture and fertilizer blending.
• Ladurner Group: Ladurner operates composting and anaerobic digestion plants in northern Italy, processing FORSU and producing soil amendments and biogas. Closest direct competitor to Maserati Energia in technology (in-vessel composting/AD), feedstock, and end markets.
• Decomar Group: Decomar operates composting and organic waste treatment facilities in northern Italy, producing compost and soil amendments from FORSU. Directly comparable single-region Italian organic waste processor with overlapping customer base in agriculture and fertilizer blending.

Broad incumbents

• ACEA Ambiente: ACEA Ambiente operates composting and anaerobic digestion facilities across central Italy as part of ACEA Group's broader multi-utility platform. Comparable to Maserati Energia in municipal organic waste processing and ACM production, but at significantly larger scale and with integrated energy recovery.
• A2A Ambiente: A2A Ambiente is the waste management arm of A2A Group operating composting facilities across Lombardy and northern Italy. Overlaps with Maserati Energia on FORSU processing, ACM production, and biogas integration within a much larger multi-utility portfolio.
• HERA Group: HERA is one of Italy's largest multi-utilities with integrated waste management including composting and anaerobic digestion plants across Emilia-Romagna — the same region as Maserati Energia. Directly comparable in feedstock (FORSU), regulatory regime, and customer segments, but operates at multi-regional scale.
• IREN Ambiente: IREN Ambiente operates organic waste treatment and composting plants in Emilia-Romagna and other northern Italian regions. Similar regulatory and feedstock profile to Maserati Energia, with broader geographic and waste-stream coverage.
• Veolia Italia (formerly Suez): Veolia Italia operates integrated waste management including organic waste treatment and composting assets across Italy. Comparable in regulatory compliance and ACM production but part of a much larger international waste platform.

Others

• Consorzio Italiano Compostatori (CIC): CIC is the Italian Composting Consortium of which Maserati Energia is a member. While not a direct competitor, CIC sets industry QA/QC standards, provides certifications (e.g., CIC Compost Quality Mark), and represents the institutional context in which Maserati Energia's ACM competes.
