2. Relevant policies
• National level:
– 2012/27/CE adoption «work in progress»
• Regional level
– 2011: Energy regional plan coherent with 20-20-20
– 2012: Covenant of Mayors as local policy to
implement regional plan
• ANCI (THE Association of municipalities)
– 2012: signed as supporter of Covenant
– @2012 only about 35 municipalities signed Covenant

6. Why Covenant?
• In Italy municipalities don’t have any role in
energy policies
– planning,
– regulation,
– tariff….
• The process of SEAP definition is important to be
able to define a new role in local energy policies:
– economic development
– sustainable energy,
– safeguard to energy poverty…

7. ANCI ER strategy
• Agreed with Emilia Romagna region the
adoption of Convenant as the tool to involve
and committ municipalities to the energy
issue
• SEAP is the beginning of a capacity building
process on energy policies (i.e. bringing
municipalities to be more and more active
on sustainable energy actions)

8. ANCI ER strategy
• Act at territorial level (municipal committee/council more
than 40/year)
• Permanent Energy working group involving all actors of
the regional territory with focussed «think tank» (around
10 WG meetings per year)
• Dissemination:
– NEWSLETTER (1500 members, over 40/year)
– Info days, meetings, synergies with other projects
• Education and training
– Energy management for municipalities
– Support to implement PPP and new financial tools

9. District H/C
• «chaothic» legislative assett at national level
• No regional sectorial plan for district H/C
• Many different «case study» in Emilia Romagna
– At City, town, and village level
– Managing actors: utility, cooperatives, municipality, PPP….
– H/C size: few hundred kW…GW
– Sources: natural gas, CHG, biomass, geothermal,
– solar H/C, residual industry heating…to be investigated

10. WP 2 – WP 3 – WP 4
(Initial brainstorming)
• Start from local level to build the regional framework (bottom up
approach starting from exhisting projects)
• case to study and case study and are used to work on WP2-3-4
• One single approach is not possible:
– We need to define different models for different situation
• Small district biomass H/C in the Appennnines
• I2I: Industry to industry symbiosis
• I2C: Industry to city symbiosis
• …
• Our aim is to build up processes and not working on single event,
single model, …. (not what but how)
• Social acceptance at the basis of any process
• Numbers come afterwards

11. Distribution of natural gas
15-4-2014 KO SmartReFlex 11
From 340 municipal management
To
12 large aggregation management
(start today and complete in 4 years)

12. Our goal
1. In Emilia Romagna we have one of the largest (and
oldest) natural gas grid.
2. Only few areas have no natural gas grid.
3. The new 12 aggregations are responsible of the ng grid
developement.
Questions to be answered (elevator talk):
Where shall we build district H/C?
In area with no exhisting ng grid?
In area where old grid needs to be replaced?
……
Using which technical, economic, regulatory, and social
evaluation models? (shared with operator, collectivity…)15-4-2014 KO SmartReFlex 12
