ENERGY COMMUNITIES AS SUPPORT FOR THE THIRD SECTOR
Organized by Compagnia delle Opere
Paolo Arrigoni, president of GSE; Mauro Bettini, Technical Director of the SGR Group, Energy Efficiency Services Division; Nicola Lanzetta, Director of Enel Italy; Stefano Saglia, Member of the ARERA Board; H.E. Mons. Filippo Santoro, Archbishop Emeritus of Taranto. Moderated by Felice Vai, Vice President of Compagnia delle Opere and Energy Sector Representative
The meeting focuses on the development of Renewable Energy Communities (RECs) one year after the enactment of the relevant regulations. We analyze the level of success achieved and what prevailing conception of RECs is emerging. We believe that RECs represent a valuable support for the educational and charitable social realities operating in our country. In fact, the REC is a very concrete tool (though often misunderstood) that bases its balance on a set of benefits (environmental, economic, social) that must necessarily be considered in a unified manner. Through the REC, an “alliance” can be established between the business world, the third sector, and public administration for the common good.
