Oxhy inaugurates its new operational unit in Lazio
The new site in Lazio strengthens Oxhy’s industrialization pathway, with a focus on advanced prototyping, engineering and the development of ORC technologies
Oxhy inaugurates its new operational unit in Ceccano, in the province of Frosinone, marking an important step in the company’s industrial growth.
The new site was created to strengthen activities in advanced prototyping, engineering and industrialization, with particular focus on the development of ORC – Organic Rankine Cycle technologies for recovering energy from low- and medium-temperature waste heat.
The Ceccano site comes at a strategic stage for Oxhy, as experimental research is progressively evolving toward a pre-industrial trajectory, focused on the development of systems, components and prototype platforms increasingly closer to real-world application contexts.
A milestone in the industrialization pathway
The new operational unit represents a key milestone for Oxhy because it enables activities that require dedicated spaces, infrastructure and technical capabilities that are difficult to accommodate within research and laboratory environments alone.
In Ceccano, Oxhy will progressively concentrate activities related to:
- advanced prototyping;
- testing and development of new cells;
- engineering of ORC systems;
- setup of dedicated machinery and instrumentation;
- preparation of a future prototype line with quality assurance and quality control processes.
The goal is to build an operational base capable of supporting Oxhy’s next stages of technological development, validation and industrialization.
“The new Ceccano site represents a key milestone in the engineering and industrialization process of our technology. It is a space designed to carry out manufacturing operations, advanced prototyping and activities related to the development of ORC technologies, at a stage in which Oxhy is consolidating its transition from research toward product development.”
Graziano Terenzi, Co-founder and Chief Strategy Officer of Oxhy
Why Ceccano
The choice of Ceccano also responds to a territorial and industrial rationale.
The Valle Latina represents a strategic axis between Rome and Naples, with a strong manufacturing presence, expertise in mechanical and engineering fields, logistics infrastructure and a growing industrial ecosystem.
Its proximity to Rome, Frosinone, Latina, Cassino and Naples allows Oxhy to position itself in an area with relevant expertise for precision mechanics, prototyping, machine building, engineering and collaboration with universities and industrial players.
The new site also strengthens Oxhy’s presence in Lazio, including in relation to regional development programs and projects already launched by the company.
The connection with the Origin project
The Ceccano operational unit will also be connected to the development of the Origin – Organic Rankine Innovative Generator for Industrial Needs project, recently selected under the STEP Lazio grant.
Origin is an experimental development program dedicated to the engineering and validation of a compact and modular ORC system for recovering energy from dispersed industrial heat.
In this context, Ceccano will be one of the operational assets supporting the development of prototypes, test systems and technological integration activities.
A work-in-progress site, oriented toward the future
The inauguration marks the start of an operational pathway that will continue over the coming months with the progressive setup of the site, the integration of machinery and the development of experimental and prototyping activities.
Future objectives include the development of an initial prototype line for the integrated ORC system, with quality control processes and technical validation.
“In Ceccano, we are launching research, development, testing and prototype production activities. The goal is to build an important site for the development of our technologies, with machinery and tools dedicated to the realization and validation of our devices.”
Stefano Staccone, Engineer Director at Oxhy
From research to industrial capability
The new site confirms Oxhy’s direction: not only research and development, but the progressive construction of engineering and industrial capabilities.
Ceccano represents a concrete step toward an Oxhy increasingly focused on product development, validation in real-world contexts and the creation of technologies capable of entering the market.
It is a new milestone in the company’s roadmap: from applied research to prototyping, from prototyping to engineering, from dispersed energy to new solutions for distributed energy autonomy.
