Fiat plans to produce 5,000 units of new Fiat 500 Hybrid by 2025

Stellantis' Fiat plans to produce 5,000 units of the Fiat 500 Hybrid at its historic Mirafiori plant in Turin, Italy, by 2025, a significant step in the plant's revitalisation. The pre-production activity of the vehicle is already underway, adhering to Stellantis' strategic roadmap shared with the Italian Ministry of Enterprises and Made in Italy in December last year. Production is scheduled to begin in November 2025. This initiative is poised to rejuvenate the Turin facility, with plans to boost Fiat 500 Hybrid production by an additional 100,000 units annually. The Fiat 500 Hybrid will be available in three configurations: the classic Hatchback, the 3+1 with a rear-hinged door, and the unique Cabrio convertible. The vehicle is powered by the Italian-made 1.0L FireFly mild-hybrid engine, coupled with a six-speed manual transmission. This 12V electrical system is designed to optimise fuel efficiency. The company said that the Fiat 500 Hybrid model is equipped with the Uconnect 5 system, with a 10.25in customisable touchscreen and a 7in digital display. It will offer full wireless compatibility with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay for smartphone integration. Additionally, the Fiat 500 Hybrid features a suite of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) such as lane-keeping assist, automatic emergency braking, and traffic sign recognition. Stellantis global CMO and FIAT CEO Olivier François said: 'Bringing the 500 Hybrid back to Mirafiori is a promise kept—a win driven by a committed team that chose to bet on the customer and the future. 'This factory is more than just a production site; it's FIAT's home, the beating heart of a story that began in 1957 with Dante Giacosa and today stands as a hub of Stellantis innovation in Europe. Our industrial plan for Italy puts Mirafiori and the 500 at the centre of our revival.' This June, Stellantis launched a voluntary redundancy scheme targeting 610 workers at the Mirafiori plant, as part of a workforce adjustment strategy within its operations in the country.

Tulum Energy Secures $27 Million in Venture Financing to Rapidly Scale Groundbreaking Turquoise Hydrogen Technology

MILAN--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Tulum Energy, a pioneering methane pyrolysis startup, has successfully closed a $27 million venture financing round. This significant investment, led by CDP Venture Capital (through its Green Transition Fund) and TDK Ventures and a global consortium of prominent investors including Tulum's founder TechEnergy Ventures, MITO Technology, through the MITO Tech Ventures fund, and Doral Energy Tech Ventures, underscores strong confidence in Tulum Energy's innovative approach to clean hydrogen production. Tulum Energy is at the forefront of developing a revolutionary methane pyrolysis technology. Methane pyrolysis is a chemical process that consists in producing clean (turquoise) hydrogen and solid carbon using natural gas or biogas as a feedstock, without CO 2 emissions. Methane Pyrolysis can overcome the economic and infrastructural limitations of green and blue hydrogen in the industrial production of decarbonized hydrogen. "The distinguishing feature of our technology is its unmatched combination of high scalability and exceptional energy efficiency," states Massimiliano Pieri, CEO of Tulum Energy. "This allows us to meet the substantial demands of large industrial consumers of hydrogen, such as refineries, ammonia producers, and chemical plants — at truly competitive costs, even without relying on tax credits and incentives." Pieri elaborates, "The core innovation lies in the repurposing of existing, commercially available machinery from the steelmaking industry to produce turquoise hydrogen. We are essentially readapting an electric arc furnace as a high-temperature heat source to crack methane molecules, yielding clean hydrogen and valuable solid carbon, rather than smelting iron." Proceeds from this Seed funding round will be strategically directed toward the construction of the company's pilot plant in Pesquería, Mexico, located within the industrial complex of Ternium, a leading steel producer in the Americas. "Ternium is the perfect partner to host our initial operations," adds Pieri. "They have an interest in utilizing our hydrogen for direct reduced iron (DRI) production, and they possess the robust infrastructure we need for seamless scaling." The Company will launch Tulum Energy's Italian subsidiary in Milan, which, by leveraging on the Italian manufacturing supply chain and talent, will serve as the central hub for research, development, and engineering activities for the Pilot and the subsequent commercial plants Tulum will develop. TechEnergy Ventures, the corporate venture capital arm of Tecpetrol, a leading energy company, meticulously built Tulum Energy from inception, originating the concept from industrial technology leader Tenova, a leading company in the provision of electric arc furnaces and H2-ready DRIs, the two critical technology pieces that can accelerate the decarbonization of steel. In 2022, TechEnergy Ventures forged a strategic partnership with Tenova, that propelled the opportunity from concept to a fully-formed company, securing crucial IP, assembling the core team, and providing the initial financial resources to launch the robust Business Plan. "Having a CVC with venture building capabilities allowed us to adopt an investor mindset from day one, enabling us to build a company that would be highly attractive for global investors from the get-go," explains Alejandro Solé, CIO of TechEnergy Ventures. Tenova's role as a technology partner provides Tulum Energy with a significant competitive advantage, offering deep industrial expertise and access to an established supply chain for equipment procurement and deployment. Tenova will also actively support Tulum's commercial efforts by providing access to its extensive industrial customer base. 'We started working with the concept of repurposing an electric arc furnace as a result of in-house experiments and our deep knowledge of EAF's,' explains Paolo Argenta, EVP of Tenova's Upstream Business Unit. Pieri emphasizes the company's accelerated roadmap: "Because we leverage existing components and an established supply chain from Tenova, our technological and commercial journey will be exceptionally time and capital-efficient. Following the Pilot, we will directly proceed to building our first full-scale commercial plant." CDP Venture Capital (Cassa Depositi e Prestiti Group) is the major asset management company in Italy. Its Green Transition Fund uses resources allocated by the EU through the NextGenerationEU initiative to support the green transition enhancing and stimulating the growth of an innovation ecosystem to develop the venture capital market in the sector, guiding companies through all stages of their growth. CDP Venture Capital's objective with this investment is to support the establishment of the Italian branch, in order to enhance the manufacturing supply chain and the excellence of the research and development process. In this manner, CDP Venture Capital will not only support the company's development but also facilitate critical access to further capital, reinforcing Tulum Energy's long-term financial strength. "Tulum Energy's scalable and efficient methane pyrolysis technology is a game-changer for industrial decarbonization. Our investment fully reflects our mission and our commitment to innovative solutions that drive the green transition, across the hard-to-abate industrial sectors, where decarbonization remains particularly challenging, at national, European, and global levels. This initiative also recognizes the excellence of Italy's specialized supply chain in the manufacturing sector, which plays a key role in the production of the component technology used for the construction of the pilot plant,' explains Cristina Tomassini, Head of Green Transition Fund of CDP Venture Capital. TDK Ventures, the corporate venture capital arm of TDK, a world leader in electronic solutions, will facilitate access to TDK's electronics expertise and products as well as its extensive network of industrial partners, substantially accelerating the company's technology development and commercialization efforts. "TDK Ventures is proud to back Tulum Energy. The company's groundbreaking turquoise hydrogen process, built on an ingenious repurposing of mature industrial technology, offers a uniquely scalable and cost-effective pathway to decarbonize heavy industries which represent very large end markets. We are excited to leverage our global network to accelerate Tulum Energy's technology development and commercialization and help the company become a cornerstone of the clean hydrogen economy," says David Delfassy, Investment Director at TDK Ventures. With the global demand for hydrogen in existing industrial applications projected to at least double in the coming decades, and industries worldwide urgently seeking cost-effective decarbonization pathways, Tulum Energy is poised to offer a viable, scalable, and economically compelling alternative to traditional hydrogen production methods. About Tulum Energy Tulum Energy is a leading climate-tech startup pioneering advanced methane pyrolysis technology for clean hydrogen production in heavy industrial applications. Built by TechEnergy Ventures, the company is dedicated to providing a scalable, efficient, and cost-effective alternative to conventional hydrogen production. Tulum Energy is committed to helping industries decarbonize while simultaneously unlocking new value through the commercialization of valuable solid carbon co-products.

UniCredit Bulbank sells risk on 2.1 billion euros in business loans to Dutch pension fund

MILAN (Reuters) -The Bulgarian unit of Italian bank UniCredit has completed a 2.1 billion euro ($2.5 billion) transaction with PGGM, the asset manager of Dutch healthcare workers' pension fund PFZW, to shift risk on corporate loans. The transaction, dubbed Project ARTS Silver-2, is the largest of its kind in Bulgaria and one of the biggest ones in central and eastern Europe (CEE), UniCredit said. Banks use significant risk transfer transactions to free up capital that would be otherwise tied up against their loan book for regulatory purposes. Under such deals, which are described as synthetic because there is no sale or transfer of the underlying assets like in an ordinary securitisation, banks shift asset risk off their balance sheet. With Project ARTS Silver-2, UniCredit Bulbank sold the second loss tranche of a securitised portfolio of corporate and small business loans to PGGM. It retained the first loss and senior tranches. Securitising an asset entails issuing notes backed by the assets. UniCredit's latest deal follows Project ARTS Morava which UniCredit completed in 2024, also with PGGM. "The size of the deal and the resulting capital reliefs, achieved both at bank and group level, confirm UniCredit's strategy on capital efficiency," said Stefano Chiarlone, head of balance sheet management at UniCredit. "After Italy and Germany, UniCredit has successfully expanded Significant Risk Transfer (securitisations) to the CEE area, where this transaction represents our fifth deal."
