Renewables, green molecules, distribution networks, energy efficiency and circular economy are the five strategic lines of development of public service companies to achieve the objectives of the transition and promote territorial energy development.
Utilities' investments on these strategic lines reach 1.8 billion euros a year, according to a study by Utilitalia, presented in Rome.
In particular for decarbonisation, there are 830 million, for the circular economy over 500 million and for digitalisation 420 million.
In addition to these investments, considering all sectors of expertise, the added value distributed by utilities to various stakeholders, from workers to local communities, is equal to 12.7 billion.
"An integrated approach allows us to combine industrial investments and innovation with the circular and social value of the service provided, expanding the energy, environmental and social benefits made available in the territories", states the president of Utilitalia, Filippo Brandolini, at the event 'The prospects of energy markets between security , sustainability and competitiveness'.
