With Pitesai "certain rules after years of waiting".
Thus the Ministry for Ecology Transition comments on the publication of the Sustainable Energy Transition Plan for suitable areas.
And he underlines "strongly desired by the Minister of Ecological Transition Cingolani to heal the delay in its publication, which has been awaited for years", with the aim of providing certain rules to operators and accompanying the transition of the national energy system by defining priorities both in terms of of decarbonisation - in line with international agreements for the protection of the environment and biodiversity - and of energy needs.
The Plan, explains the note from the Mite, identifies the areas in which it is permitted to carry out the activities of prospecting, research and cultivation of hydrocarbons on the national territory.
The process involved 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 involves an entirely public consultation phase.
On 29 September 2021, in line with the commitment made, the Plan was delivered by Mite, thus starting the dialogue phase with the Unified Conference, which in December 2021 made a positive decision, proposing the constraint of evaluation of possible activities related to research permits limiting them exclusively to gas.
