Ricarica Energy to Move awarded for the promotion of sodium-ion technology 

Among the awards presented during KEY Energy 2026, we presented the’Innovation Ambassador Award 2026a Ricarica Energy to Move, partner who has distinguished himself by advocating with conviction for Heiwit technology and, more generally, a vision of energy in which production from renewable sources, storage, and electric mobility increasingly interact in an integrated way. 

The award recognizes those who do not simply follow innovation, but bring it into debate, make it concrete, and contribute to building new connections between worlds that until a few years ago were considered separate. 

From Ricarica's public profile, a reality oriented towards electric mobility and charging services emerges, with a vision that connects infrastructure, renewable energy, and smart electricity usage. It is precisely this convergence that makes the recognition particularly significant: storage is no longer an isolated issue, but a key component of a more modern, distributed, and flexible energy ecosystem. 

When innovation and system meet 

In this context, the Heiwit sodium ion batteries they find a natural place. Their spread is not just about the possibility of storing energy, but about how energy is produced, managed, and used over time. It means supporting a model that is more consistent with the growth of photovoltaics, with the electrification of consumption, and with the need to develop storage solutions that also have a long-term environmental and industrial logic. 

For Heiwit this point is essential: sodium is not just a technological novelty, but part of a vision that brings together innovation, sustainability and Italian industrial projects. Promoting this technology means contributing to a more concrete energy transition, capable of generating environmental benefits through greater integration of renewables and, at the same time, strengthening skills and supply chains in the region. 

A recognition of vision 

With the Innovation Ambassador Award, we therefore want to recognise those who help to grow this vision and make it credible in the market. Ricarica Energy to Move has particularly distinguished itself for this: for its ability to place Heiwit technology within a broader narrative, where storage, electric mobility, and clean energy are part of the same change. 

We would like to congratulate Ricarica Energy to Move on the work they have done and for contributing to the spread of a more advanced energy culture, in which sodium-ion batteries can find an increasingly significant place.
