Bolzano fire, the electric car charging station company goes up in flames –

A huge fire broke out this morning in the industrial area of ​​Piani di Bolzano. The column of smoke is visible even from a great distance. Due to the “intense smoke”, the civil protection advises to “keep doors and windows closed, and to turn off the air conditioning and ventilation systems” and, due to the current weather conditions, “the cloud of smoke is rising vertically and therefore it does not represent an immediate danger.” According to rescuers, there were no people involved. The Minister of the Environment and Energy Safety Gilberto Pichetto is following the developments of the fire affecting Alpitronic, the world’s leading company in the production of charging stations for electric cars. The Mase structures are in constant contact with the Prefecture for real-time updates and renew the invitation to citizens to follow the instructions of the competent authorities.
