With its ecological transition plan, the Italian government intends to bring about a profound change that will lead to the so-called green transition. The green transition means all those activities aimed at promoting the circular economy, the development of renewable energy sources and a more sustainable economy.

For this mission, the Italian government intends to use 31.05% of the PNRR, equal in absolute terms to €59.46 billion

In broad terms, the plan will address the following areas:

Circular economy and waste management


Strengthening the separate waste collection network and the plants for treating and recycling materials, in order to improve the circular economy and waste management across the country.

Renewable energy sources and the development of hydrogen-based solutions


The aim is to simplify the authorisation procedures for renewable energy, increasing its presence in the country. The solutions concerned are based not only on solar power but also on hydrogen, with particular attention also paid to the transport sector.

Improving the electricity grid and water infrastructure


One of the fundamental problems of old water networks is the loss of water during transport inside the pipes. The intention is to take action to reduce these losses. In addition, the aim is to strengthen the security and reliability of the electricity grid.

Investments to tackle climate change and hydrogeological instability


In recent years we have witnessed the disastrous effects of climate change and of changes to the land. Making the most at-risk areas safe is one of the priorities, in particular to prevent landslides or flooding and to enhance the land, through redevelopment, monitoring and prevention measures.

Further investments are planned. These 59 billion are a great opportunity for real change.
