Mite, published Sustainable transition plan suitable areas
The approval process for the Sustainable Energy Transition Plan for suitable areas (Pitesai) “strongly desired by the Minister of Ecological Transition, Roberto Cingolani, to make up for the delay in its publication, which has been awaited for years”, was concluded.
The Mite communicates this in a note. The Plan, it is explained, identifies the areas in which the svolgimento of the attivita ‘of prospection, investigation and cultivation of hydrocarbons is consented on the national territory. The process saw “a complex initial mapping work, carried out together with specialized research institutes (Ispra, Rse), following which the ministry of Ecological Transition proposed the Plan which was thus subjected to Strategic Environmental Assessment (VAS), a process that envisages an entirely public consultation phase “, continues the note.
On 29 September 2021, in line with the commitment made, the Plan was delivered by the Mite thus starting the dialogue phase with the Unified Conference which in December 2021 pronounced itself positively, proposing the constraint of evaluation of possible activities connected to research permits, limiting them exclusively to gas.
The Pitesai has the goal of provide certain rules to operators and to accompany the transition of the national energy system by defining priorities both with a view to decarbonisation – in line with international agreements for the protection of the environment and biodiversity – and energy needs. In implementing the Plan, Mite concludes, “not only environmental, but also social and economic sustainability criteria have been taken into account”.
Energy, green Europe: “Pitesai is the murder in the climate of Cingolani”
“With the approval of the PITESAI by the MITE, with which the drilling is started, the the perfect murder of the climate minister Cingolani. Instead of thinking about implementing the PNRR, immediately supporting renewable sources and soliciting all the authorizations related to this sector, it approves a plan that suspends the moratorium on hydrocarbon extraction in our country.
The very serious thing is that the increase in extractions will have no effect on the bills since the gas is in any case little and is placed on the international market, among other things, with prohibitive costs of the extraction techniques that will lead the product to have the same market price as the current one “.
Thus in a note the national co-spokespersons of Europa Verde Angelo Bonelli and Eleonora Evi, who continue: “How can the Minister of Ecological Fiction argue that the fight against expensive bills exploitation of our fields? AND what ecological transition would be the one that increases the use of fossil fuels? Instead of pandering to the fossil lobby, the Minister should immediately issue decrees that allow the release of 110 GW, 95 high voltage, 10 medium voltage renewable projects awaiting approval “.
“Minister Cingolani – the ecologists explain – did not understand or pretends not to understand that only by intervening, encouraging and unblocking the renewable energy sector not only would the problem of the climate crisis be solved but the supply of energy at lower prices than the current ones would be speeded up, managing to lower the bills of Italian families and companies in a reasonable time. After having completely removed from the plans of the ministry themes such as eco-crimes, the consumption of soil, the land of fires, water as a common good, the bulwark of drills also falls.
Here is the last masterpiece by Cingolani – Bonelli and Evi conclude – of which we return to forcefully ask for resignation, because it has not looked after the interests of Italy or of the families of Italian companies, completely distorting a ministry which by now has nothing to do with the environment and ecological transition “.
