When the power goes out, a city comes to a standstill. This is exactly what happened in Naples on April 10, due to a major blackout caused by a failure in the high-voltage power grid, which left entire neighborhoods across the city and surrounding areas without electricity, disrupting businesses, homes, and essential services.

Among the facilities affected was the Ospedale del Mare, one of the most critical sites in emergency situations. The issue was managed promptly and effectively thanks to the activation of emergency generators.

Visa SpA is pleased to announce its participation in IFAT 2026 in Munich, the world’s leading trade fair dedicated to ecology, environmental technologies, and the management of water, waste, and raw materials.
