Andrea is acknowledged as a global industry-expert with several publications over 20 years in large and complex infrastructures deployment for power, green fuels, especially green hydrogen, and water desalination.

Previously, he was for long time the Global Head of Hydrogen and Head of Renewables at ACWA Power, where he closed US$ 15+bn worth of projects infrastructure.

He is now focused to scale data centers’ infrastructure to the capacities required for mega centers, especially AI factories, and making these more efficient, sustainable, carbon neutral and ultimately requiring a lower integrated lifecycle cost enabling a faster growth of artificial intelligence across the global spectrum of communities and industries.

Andrea has a Ph.D. from Denmark Technical University (DTU) and MS.C. from the University of Padua.
