It will be possible to conduct interviews and briefings with individual figures taking part in the conference outside the conference\u2019s working hours by applying to the Press Office beforehand.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The European Green Deal with its \u201cFit for 55\u201d climate package, launched in July 2021, marked a change in the economic paradigm and a virtuous vision of the future, but it failed to specify some of the crucial phases in the transition. The plan focused heavily on support for the transition from fossile fuel to renewable sources, including with a policy involving a deliberate increase in the cost of the former by comparison with the cost of the latter. Today priorities have understandably been redirected toward security and diversity of supply. The fact remains, however, that defining energy strategy continues to be a prerogative of the EU\u2019s individual national governments, which are tasked with selecting the path most appropriate for each country.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Italy, for example, still depends largely on the combustion of natural gas, but it can resort to the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR) to speed up the green transition, to increase the proportion of renewable sources in its national energy mix and to thus reduce its dependence on imported fossil fuels. With that end in mind, it is going to be important to simplify the red tape surrounding the issue of authorizations that currently discourages investment and hampers the development of energy innovation projects. It is necessary to gradually reduce the country\u2019s dependence on gas and fossil fuels, and to speed up its transition toward clean energy. The marginal costs of energy from renewable sources are very low, thus they represent the most sustainable option in the longer term. Alongside the integration of renewable sources into the energy mix, it is necessary to reduce the overall cost of energy and to allocate today the investments required to achieve the climate goals as soon as possible.<\/p>\n
