Intesa San Paolo takes part in “Towards a Sustainable Expo” for the category of sustainable architecture and for the fourth category concerning initiatives on sustainability.
For the second category, Intesa san Paolo has organized with its partners some events on renewable energy, environmental sustainability and social responsibility. In particular, Intesa has exploited Expo 2015 to discuss and to develop a network around the theme of sustainability.

– use of heat pumps system to control possible temperature changes, in particular in october;
– use of temperature and humidity monitoring system, even remotely;
– remote lighting control system;
