The timing of the electrical transition in Italy they continue to be the subject of discussion. Andrea Orlando, the Minister of Labor of the current government, was invited by the metalworkers’ union in the assembly to tell how the majority will move on the elimination of vehicles with internal combustion engines, for which the trade associations are asking for a postponement 2035. The response of the minister, however, not only “rejects” this hypothesis of postpone the deadline for the switch to electric cars, but even claims that 2035 is too late if you really care about sustainability.
“I think that 2035, looking at the conditions of the planet, is even late, not only for the automotive sector but in general for the objectives that Europe has set itself, because I think environmental collapse is much closer than we think“, his words reported by La Stampa. No slippage, therefore, even looking at an advance of the deadline compared to 2035 currently set: “We can also compromise but I don’t know the idea that you change that goal and postpone it temporarily is not realistic. Europe should be told that we respect the times but that the resources to accompany the transition are not sufficient. A broader European investment is needed for this transition “. The Minister of Labor also spoke of the need to introduce new social safety nets that support the transition.
The president of the Piedmont Region, Alberto Cirio, also spoke during the meeting, who returned to the decision of Stellantis to choose Termoli for the construction of its new Gigafactory dedicated to the production of electric batteries: “Still the rudeness suffered for the Gigafactory of Stellantis that will go to Termoli and the uncertainty for the assignment of the Intel factory are still burning. Creating a competition for which each Region is a candidate and tries to be more attractive for the choices of international players means that they lead and we suffer. It doesn’t have to happen anymore“.
