ENEA-IRIS Open Archive è l’archivio della produzione scientifica dell'ENEA, realizzato con l'obiettivo di raccogliere, catalogare e rendere facilmente accessibili in rete i risultati della ricerca. Gli autori dell’ENEA provvedono a depositare le proprie pubblicazioni (articoli su rivista, presentazioni a congressi, report, ecc.). In particolare, quelle finanziate dalla Commissione Europea nell’ambito del programma H2020 (che prevede il deposito obbligatorio in un Repository), una volta caricate, vengono automaticamente importate dal portale europeo OpenAIRE. È possibile inserire, o importare direttamente dalle banche dati previste, le informazioni descrittive del documento e anche allegare, ove consentito dalla normativa sul diritto d'autore, il testo completo della pubblicazione.

Mitigation strategies towards progressive decarbonization of the energy system are a valid approach to slow environmental pollution yielding social benefits, as established from National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP). The first objective is the increase of energy efficiency within 2030 by promoting the use of renewable energy and the electrification of consumption in other sectors (household and transport). Cost-benefit analysis (CBA) is an analytical tool to evaluate investments and support policy decisions for society's welfare. The paper aims to assess how CBA can be used to quantify the costs and related social benefits in different sectors (energy, transport and household) if the decarbonization scenario is applied in Italy in 2030. Overall, our findings show positive benefits obtained with the adoption of different mitigation strategies for all sectors. These results can provide significant support to decision-makers in the implementation of decarbonization scenario in Italy scheduled for 2030.

Abstract

Mitigation strategies towards progressive decarbonization of the energy system are a valid approach to slow environmental pollution yielding social benefits, as established from National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP). The first objective is the increase of energy efficiency within 2030 by promoting the use of renewable energy and the electrification of consumption in other sectors (household and transport). Cost-benefit analysis (CBA) is an analytical tool to evaluate investments and support policy decisions for society's welfare. The paper aims to assess how CBA can be used to quantify the costs and related social benefits in different sectors (energy, transport and household) if the decarbonization scenario is applied in Italy in 2030. Overall, our findings show positive benefits obtained with the adoption of different mitigation strategies for all sectors. These results can provide significant support to decision-makers in the implementation of decarbonization scenario in Italy scheduled for 2030.
