As a party to the Paris Agreement and as a member of the European Union, Italy’s national contribution is linked with that of other member states and, together, they are legally obliged to achieve a 55% reduction in net emissions, compared to 1990 levels, by 2030. The National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP) provides a national framework for countries to implement their emissions reduction commitments. A Plan that openly falls short of some of the objectives set by the Fit for 55 proposals.
This report aims to quantify the evolution of revenue from the fiscal and parafiscal components of energy carriers for road mobility; describe the current fiscal and parafiscal structures of energy carriers for car mobility; and provide options for designing fiscal energy policies aimed at maintaining revenue neutrality without introducing contradictions to climate policies.
