The development of technologically advanced communities
implies a continuous growth in power demand
World power demand evolution by sector
(IEA – World Energy Outlook)
In European scenario, Italy is a strong and net importer of
power from other countries
Italian Challenges:
1. Reduce import of power
2. Reduce GHG emissions
3. Respect International agreements
4. Create new employment and promote R&D

Policy background
Energy policy pursues the objective of a sustainable, competitive
and secure supply of energy.
Since 2007, the European Commission has been adopting an
energy policy for Europe. This was supported by several
documents on different aspects of energy and included an action
plan to meet the major energy challenges in Europe.
Renewable energies help to thwarth climate change while
increasing security of supply.
Italy targets imposed by the European
Directive 2009/28/CE are:
17% of gross energy consumption must be
supplied by RES
Reduction of CO2 emission of 14% respect
to 2005 values
10% of energy employed in tranport sector
must be provided by RES
These targets must be reached within 2020

Evolution of power systems from RES in Italy
GSE october 2011
Installed power
Power growth
At national and regional level is now available a wide range of
economic and regulatory incentives to promote use of RES.
Main national tools are:
1. Priority access to the grid system is granted to electricity
from RES and CHP plants.
2. An obligation for electricity generators to feed a given
proportion of RES-E into the power system.
3.Tradable Green Certificates are used to fulfill the RES-E
obligations.
4. A feed-in tariff for PV. This is a fixed tariff, guaranteed for
20 years and adjusted annually for inflation.
5. Net metering
6. Obligations for biofuels diffusion
Italian government has moreover provided a series of
actions to promote energy efficiency and and lower
consumptions
These actions involves directly Italian citizens:
1. Incentives for energy saving restructurings of
buildings
2. Emission of EPC certificates;
3. 55% of tax deduction for home installation of RES
systems
4. Incentives on energy saving products like saving
bulbs,
etc....
Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)
EPC includes data on their building energy efficiency, the current
values in accordance with the law and the reference values, which
allow citizens to evaluate and compare the energy performance.
Must be accompanied by suggestions on the most significant and
cost-effective to improve the performance of the building.
EPC must be attached to documents at the time of sale
