    ISES–Italia (1964 – 1980) 235 Chapter 10 ISES-ITALIA Section of the International Solar Energy Society (1964-1980) by Cesare Silvi GSES (Gruppo per la Storia dell’ Energia Solare) Via Nemorense, 18 00199 Roma, Italy e-mail: [email protected] Abstract This chapter reports the story of the Italian Section of ISES from 1964 to 1980. The first part outlines the history of solar energy in Italy from before the introduction of fossil fuels, to the 1950s, when the country launched its programs for the use of nuclear energy. The second part describes: • the creation of the Italian Section of ISES, in 1964, on the initiative of Vittorio Storelli, an industrial engineer interested in what he called “the science of the Sun;” • the Section's activities before and after the 1973 oil shock, when growing interest in solar energy led to a rapid expansion of the Section’s role; • the legal adoption of the by-laws of the association in 1978 and—as major Italian energy companies and agencies (including ENI and ENEL) joined—its transformation at a time when large-scale solar projects were starting up in Italy (among them the 1 MW “Eurelios” solar thermoelec- tric plant built in the Sicilian town of Adrano, whose construction was completed in December of 1980). 236 History of ISES – Volume 1 10.1 History of Solar Energy in Italy, and Solar-related Activities Until the Early 1960s 10.1.1 Solar energy before fossil fuels Many historical sources preserved in Italy testify to interest in solar ener- gy from the earliest times.

  • Italian Agricultural Uses of Geothermal Energy
    Bulletin d’Hydrog6ologie No 17 (1999) Centre d’Hydrogdologie, Universitd de Neuckritel EDITIONSPET ER LANG Italian agricultural uses of geothermal energy by *Roberto Carella’ & Claudio Sommaruga’ ’ Unione Geotermica Italiana, 58 Via Caracciolo, 20155 Milano, Italy ’Geothermal consultant, 62 Via Sismondi, 20133 Milano, Italy ABSTRACT Non electric uses of geothermal energy in Italy are mainly connected to the spa business, but a large share is also related, beside residential heating, to agricultural activities, including fish farming. The main ongoing applications in agribusiness are greenhouses heating, the most important facilities being in Amiata (Tuscany) and at Puntani (next to Rome) and fish farming at Orbetello (Tuscany coast) and in Apulia shore. A small but interesting integrated project, combining greenhouse and aquaculture heating is running in Rodigo (Lombardy). Concerning the immediate future, some greenhouses are being built or planned near new geothermal power stations in Northern Latium. Factors affecting the growth of geothermal use in Italian agriculture (as well as in other sectors) include the low price of energy, the mining risk, the technological hnow-how needed, bureaucratic hurdles, lack of information and insufficient support at the various Governmental levels, and, last but not least, the health status of the heat-assisted agri- industry as a whole. KEYWORDS Italy, agriculture, geothermal heat uses Introduction Non-electric uses of geothermal energy worldwide, with an installed capacity of 9,000 Mwt, amounted in 1995 to 31,000 GWhly, corresponding to a substitution of 2,4 million TOE/y. The agricultural share (including aquaculture) was 27%; second only to residential beating (34%)(FREESTON 1996). CARELLA& SOMMARUGA : ITALIAN AGRICULTURALUSES OF GEOTHERMALENERGY In Italy, where direct uses amount to about 240,000 TOWy, agricultural applications (60,000 TOE/y) represent 25% of the total, after balneological-spa uses (52%) but ahead of residential heating (16% of which 10% connected with spa hotels in the Abuno (Veneto area).

  • Large Scale Photovoltaic Market Analysis in Italy
    Master of Science Thesis KTH School of Industrial Engineering and Management Energy Technology TRITA-ITM-EX 2021:14 Division of Heat and Power Technology SE-100 44 STOCKHOLM Large Scale Photovoltaic Market Analysis In Italy Federico Annese Feb 2021 Master of Science Thesis TRITA-ITM-EX 2021:14 Large Scale Photovoltaic Market Analysis In Italy Federico Annese Approved Examiner Supervisor Björn Laumert Rafael Guédez Commissioner Contact person Abstract The environmental targets set by Europe of reaching a net zero carbon emission by 2050 and the European Green Deal have increased the environmental targets previously set. The Italian government managed to reach the targets set by 2020 in advance and started to work on the 2030 targets in 2017. Nevertheless, after the EU agreement on the Green Deal, the strategy has been revised and the Integrated National Energy and Climate Plan has been published with the aim of setting clear targets to reach by 2030 in compliance with the strategy of the European Union. The Italian strategy will strongly rely on solar and wind energy: the government intends reaching 51 GW of installed solar capacity from the 20.8 GW currently installed. The cost-competitiveness of solar energy is well known, and it has already reached the grid parity stage in Italy. This study is aimed at giving in the first part an insight on the current status and future trends of photovoltaic technology. In the second part, the analysis has been focused on the Italian photovoltaic energy, market schemes and permitting phase. The biggest threats to the deployment of large scale photovoltaic are: the land procurement due to the national and regional/municipal constraints and the impossibility of knowing a priori the availability of connection capacity.

  • Uef-Spinelli Group
    UEF-SPINELLI GROUP MANIFESTO 9 MAY 2021 At watershed moments in history, communities need to adapt their institutions to avoid sliding into irreversible decline, thus equipping themselves to govern new circumstances. After the end of the Cold War the European Union, with the creation of the monetary Union, took a first crucial step towards adapting its institutions; but it was unable to agree on a true fiscal and social policy for the Euro. Later, the Lisbon Treaty strengthened the legislative role of the European Parliament, but again failed to create a strong economic and political union in order to complete the Euro. Resulting from that, the EU was not equipped to react effectively to the first major challenges and crises of the XXI century: the financial crash of 2008, the migration flows of 2015- 2016, the rise of national populism, and the 2016 Brexit referendum. This failure also resulted in a strengthening of the role of national governments — as shown, for example, by the current excessive concentration of power within the European Council, whose actions are blocked by opposing national vetoes —, and in the EU’s chronic inability to develop a common foreign policy capable of promoting Europe’s common strategic interests. Now, however, the tune has changed. In the face of an unprecedented public health crisis and the corresponding collapse of its economies, Europe has reacted with unity and resolve, indicating the way forward for the future of European integration: it laid the foundations by starting with an unprecedented common vaccination strategy, for a “Europe of Health”, and unveiled a recovery plan which will be financed by shared borrowing and repaid by revenue from new EU taxes levied on the digital and financial giants and on polluting industries.

  • Italian Consumers' Willingness to Pay for Renewable Energy Sources
    Munich Personal RePEc Archive Italian consumers’ willingness to pay for renewable energy sources Bigerna, Simona and Polinori, Paolo Department of Economics, Finance and Statistics, University of Perugia, Faculty of Economics, Uninettuno University, Rome 30 October 2011 Online at https://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/34408/ MPRA Paper No. 34408, posted 31 Oct 2011 15:00 UTC Italian Consumers’ Willingness to Pay for Renewable Energy Sources§ Simona Bigerna(1) and Paolo Polinori(2) (1) Faculty of Economics, UTIU, [email protected] (2) Department of Economics, Finance and Statistics, University of Perugia, [email protected] .H (corresponding author) Abstract EU Directive 2009/72/CE imposes to the European Countries environmental and energy targets. The Italian goal is to attain a 17% share in electricity production from renewable energy sources (RES) by 2020. To make investment in renewables attractive, market prices must be profitable and the gap between the private and social costs of renewables must be filled using “persuasive” tools. The acceptance of such a burden may be controversial because it results in an increase in prices. It is interesting to estimate the consumer’s willingness to pay (WTP) for green electricity. We based our research on a national survey conducted in November 2007 in Italy. We used a stochastic payment card (SPC) including a “certainty correction” and proposing five degrees of acceptance. An empirical analysis shows that there is a substantial willingness among Italian consumers to partially cover the cost of achieving the RES goal. Key Words: contingent valuation, interval data, stochastic payment card, renewable energy sources. JEL: Q26 Q41 §The authors are thankful to Carlo Andrea Bollino, with whom we developed many of the ideas presented in this paper and to the PRIN 2007 seminar participants (Milano, June, 27th 2011), especially Paolo Bruno Bosco, for their helpful suggestions.

This paper analyzes possible decarbonization scenarios in Italy for the year 2050. They envisage high electrification of transports and residential buildings, high use of renewable energies, and a modal shift towards public transport. The energy scenarios are evaluated using a software program, EnergyPLAN, starting from a reference model developed for the year 2014. Special attention has been given to the modeling of data that are unavailable in the literature, such as the time profile of heating and cooling demands, obtained with the degree-days method and validated by elaborating the results of the modeling of the residential building stock, this latter was dynamically simulated in TRNSYS. The results show that to obtain a significant decrease of greenhouse gas emissions and fossil fuel consumption, it is necessary not only to promote a deeper penetration of renewable sources, but also their integration with other technologies (cogeneration, trigeneration, power-to-heat systems, thermal storage, vehicle-to-grid operations).
