Decarbonising the industrial sector requires a targeted approach, with solutions that in most cases must be tailored to meet the needs of each industry. Amongst these, electrification appears to be the most competitive option and the only one capable of aligning decarbonisation objectives with energy security needs. This report presents the results of a specific feasibility study on the electrification of two key sectors in the Italian manufacturing industry: food and textiles.
Today, the Mediterranean region's capacity is 90 GW for solar PV and 82 GW for wind . However, the solar and wind potential is estimated at more than 3 TW, meaning that the development of renewables falls short of realising their full potential.
This analysis aims to identify the minimum gas infrastructure Italy requires to ensure national energy security, after the consequences of the Russian invasion of Ukraine have shaped the European market and considering the progress on climate targets. The study was carried out using an optimisation model that simulates the balance between gas demand and supply in the European market for Italy with a daily granularity for 2030, 2040, and 2050.
