Abstract

The article examines Italy’s energy policy in alternative energy production and possible implementation of its experience in Russia. Nowadays, the Italian Republic with its great geographical potential for alternative energy sources sets the goal of decarbonization and transition to clean energy. In accordance with the “Economy Recovery and Sustainability Plan” and the “Integral Plan for Energy and Climate to 2030”, Italy is determined to make solar energy the leading source of non-carbon energy by 2030 and proceed to large-scale development of off shore wind energy. The article assesses some of Italy’s accomplishments in increasing the share of renewable energy, as well as potential implementation of Italian projects in Russian realities.
