PARTNERS

Eight partners are working together on the implementation of the LIFEalps project, sharing expertise, experience, and know-how to achieve common goals.

Activities and responsibilities are distributed in a synergistic way, ensuring that all partners contribute jointly to the overall success of the project.

PROJECT COORDINATOR

SASA is the official coordinator of the LIFEalps project. In this role, it acts as the direct point of contact with the European funding body and is involved in all managerial and operational aspects.

SASA’s specific objectives include:

the installation of a new plantfor the production of green hydrogen,
the construction of a new hydrogen refueling station at the SASA Depot in Merano,
the development of the hydrogen refueling station at the Depot in Bolzano,
the installation of charging stations for the battery bus fleet.

All of these initiatives contribute to accelerating the transition to zero-emission public and private mobility, promoting a sustainable and innovative model for the region.

IIT Hydrogen supports SASA in coordinating the partners and project activities, also acting as a point of contact with the European funding body and taking on the role of project management.

Furthermore, IIT Hydrogen produces and supplies green hydrogen to the LIFEalps zero-emission vehicle fleet, thanks to the production plant located in Bolzano and its associated refueling station.

This activity will continue until SASA’s new hydrogen production plant becomes operational.

PROJECT PARTNERS

Autostrada del Brennero contributes to the LIFEalps project by installing a hydrogen refueling station along the highway at the Verona Nord toll station.
This initiative extends the hydrogen mobility infrastructure southward, complementing it with the commissioning of fast-charging stations for battery electric vehicles.

Eurac Reearch provides its expertise in monitoring data, performance and results from the project implementation actions. Moreover, Eurac promotes the replicability of the LIFEalps model in other Italian and European regions, supporting the dissemination of sustainable practices and solutions.

STA – Strutture Trasporto Alto Adige SpA, through its Green Mobility department, supports the LIFEalps project with a series of awareness and information campaigns on sustainable mobility. These initiatives aim to encourage the conscious use of sustainable transport – from bicycles to electric vehicles and buses – contributing to cleaner and more responsible mobility.

The Vinschgauer Energie Konsortium operates in the western part of the Province of Bolzano and participates in the LIFEalps project by installing an electric vehicle charging network in Val Venosta. This network is intended to promote the use of battery-powered vehicles, contributing to the development of sustainable mobility in the region.

Alperia activetly contributed to the initial design and development of the LIFEalps project and was a partner during the first four years of implementation. After entrusting Neogy with the installation of electric vehicle charging points, Alperia now continues its engagement as an observer partner, maintaining its commitment to supporting the transition toward zero- emission mobility.
