Driving the energy transition: 5 actions for Italian municipalities
5 steps, 5 benefits for Italian municipalities
Italy’s reliance on fossil fuels has increased energy costs, worsened health and environmental issues, and deepened energy poverty for households across the country. Yet, municipalities have a unique opportunity to drive the energy transition with ease and exponential impact. By taking the lead in moving away from polluting fossil fuels and toward clean, fair, and sustainable energy systems, local governments can protect public health, support local businesses, lower electricity bills, and strengthen community resilience.
Our five-step checklist can help Italy’s municipalities seize this opportunity. With real-world examples and proven benefits, it outlines a local path to energy security, economic growth, and climate protection.
