The document results from a participative process that involved the Italian Parliament, the Regions, and over 250 stakeholders, including associations, companies, public entities, citizens, and representatives of academia. The numerous contributions given to the process testify the priority that the public opinion assigns to energy and environmental issues. Here are some of the core targets of the National Energy Strategy 2017: reducing final energy consumption by a total of 10 Mtoe by 2030; reaching a 28% share of renewables in total energy consumption by 2030, and a 55% share of renewables in electricity consumption by 2030; strengthening supply security; narrowing the energy price gap: furthering sustainable public mobility and eco-friendly fuels; and phasing out the use of coal in electricity generation by 2025. The objective of the Strategy is to make the national energy system more competitive, more sustainable, and more secure.
