Zanè, Italy, and Melbourne, Australia, May 20, 2024 – Energia Europa, a world leader in energy efficiency innovation, and SmartGRID Technologies & Power Quality Solutions Pty Ltd, an Australian leader in smart grid solutions, are thrilled to announce an exclusive partnership. Energia Europa’s patented EP-X technology is poised to enhance Australia’s energy efficiency, improve power quality, and promote sustainability through substantial reductions in carbon emissions.
Energia Europa: Leaders in Energy Efficiency Innovation
Energia Europa is an Italian joint stock company developing innovative products for energy efficiency and environmental sustainability; that design, develop and manufacture cutting-edge devices to optimize modern electrical systems in manufacturing, retail and residential facilities. The core of our production is the patented EP-X device, which ensures real energy efficiency on both the line and the power system with the same work performed, thereby reducing system losses and improving power quality. The EP-X devices have been successfully deployed in more than 1,300 sites of top European companies, bringing about sizeable economic gains through measurable savings on power consumption.
“Behind EP-X there are years of R&D and collaboration with Italian and foreign universities. The product continues to evolve following the advancement of electrical systems with, for example, the massive introduction of LED lighting and EV charging systems. EP-X technology is based on the principles of electrical engineering, where superimposed magnetic fields combine, obtaining a remodulation of the harmonic components of the current. The attenuation of the components with negative sequence, the reduction of line losses, and the smoothing effect generated by a series filter, lead us to obtain measurable energy savings. The experience acquired allows us to guarantee this saving: if what we measure after installation is lower than the value declared in the offer, we will compensate the difference in order to guarantee the original R.O.I. For our clients, EPX is a zero-risk investment.”
Giorgio Bettale, CTO, Energia Europa
“The Australian market has always been a target for Energia Europa because of the attention given to energy efficiency and low emissions. Our technology, EP-X, is an innovative and optimal solution for the market bringing not only energy and financial savings, but also reduction in CO2 emissions, allowing the companies to have a lighter carbon footprint, and improve the overall power quality of their electrical system. The reduction of harmful harmonics, the increase of the power factor, and reduction of losses along the line are positive secondary effects of EP-X, being the energy efficiency the first and main effect. The partnership with a skilled company like SmartGRID Technologies will allow us to reach the highest number of customers all over the Australian territory, and to have a technical partner that can integrate and exploit at its fullest the potentiality of our solutions.”
Pierantonio Cantoni, International Business Development Manager

Benefits and Advantages of EP-X
- Energy Efficiency: decreases losses and disturbances in the system by providing real energy efficiency; improves the quality of power distributed to the loads, extending their life span.
- Economic savings: reduces power consumption for the same work performed, generating economic savings generally ranging from 3% to 6%, depending on the type of electricity mains. The result can be scientifically measured thanks to the patented bypass and the data monitoring and transmission system managed by the E-Controller.
- Environmental Sustainability: each kWh saved is equivalent to approximately a 0.450 kg reduction in CO2 emissions.
- Power Quality: Power Quality is characterised by disturbances in the electrical supply, which are compounded by the ever increasing use of electronic equipment and include both transient and stationary, very common events, such as: short and long interruptions, micro- interruptions and voltage dips, overvoltage and pulse overcurrent, harmonics and current and voltage imbalances, flickering.
