Italy: number of customers of the electricity provider Enel 2015-2023
In 2023, the multinational Italian company Enel S.p.A. had roughly 31.8 million electricity customers in Italy, an increase compared to the previous years. The volume of electricity sold by Enel amounted to approximately 97 terawatt-hours in 2022.
Electricity market liberalization
By January 2024, Italian electricity consumers had to leave the regulated market and pick their electricity provider autonomously on the free market. Hence, the market became much less static than in the past. After growing steadily, the number of electricity sellers in the deregulated market in Italy amounted to over 560 in 2022. Enel was one of them.

Also, Enel ranked third after Eni and Edison as the leading natural gas selling firm in Italy. In 2022, the company sold over 6.6 billion cubic meters of natural gas to Italian customers.
