After the war in Ukraine Draghi only pushes on gas. Goodbye energy transition
Italy runs fast on the gas but forget about renewables and energy transition on the way. The text on the government’s energy plan awaiting publication in the Official Gazette, writes the Fatto Quotidiano, makes evident the change of pace on gas which, however, is on the road to the objectives previously declared by our country.
The challenge on gas reserves in view of the next winter season started just over a month ago in what this year is an obstacle race for all European countries faced with the need to replace supplies from Russia as soon as possible. In Italy, storage filling at 5 May had reached 39% of capacity compared to an EU average of 34.9%. Our country has a reserve capacity of about 17 billion cubic meters, we are second in the EU after Germany.
The government expects to be able to do without the 29 billion cubic meters from Russia at the end of 2023 or in the first months of 2024. In addition to the agreements signed in recent days in Algeria, Qatar and Angola and an increase in flow from the Tap of 1.5 billion cubic meters in 2023, national production should increase by another 1.5 billion a year; the boost from renewables should be worth 0.7 billion cubic meters of consumption while another 2 billion expected from savings on temperatures.
Dl Aiuti, the criticisms of environmentalists
But in the meantime, writes the Fatto Quotidiano, “in the last year the requests for renewable projects in Italy increased from 84 to 575, according to the numbers reported in the hearing to the parliamentary commission for simplification by the director general of the ministry of culture (Mic) Federica Galloni, who is also the head of the special superintendence for the implementation of the NRP and the PNIEC (the integrated plan for energy and climate ). There are 69 wind power projects awaiting admissibility check and 101 in progress, as well as 357 for photovoltaic awaiting admissibility and 48 in the preliminary phase “.
Legambiente protests: “No commissioner and shyness on the Superintendencies. We will never reach 60 Gw… ”Environmentalists speak of” so many problems that would need an organic reform and that instead receive only small, precious but insufficient pushes “.
