Energy: The WinWind project’s Italian desk kicks off

8/3/2018

ENEA and EcoAzioni are Italian partners in the WinWind project, aimed at increasing social acceptance and enhancing the development of onshore wind energy in ‘wind energy scarce regions' (WESR).

The WinWind project's first National Desk (ND), coordinated by ENEA and EcoAzioni, was launched in late February at ENEA with the participation of over 30 stakeholders and experts from the public and private sectors: Ministry of Economic Development, Lazio region, research institutions (ISPRA, RSE, CNR, INGV), universities, Italian associations of small wind energy, wind project developers, environmental NGOs, energy utility companies (ENI, Enel Green Power), Italian Chamber of Commerce, experts from the Commission for Environmental Impact Assessment - Ministry of the Environment and Protection of Land and Sea, architects and engineers. The National Desk must become an open round table, as a forum, to improve governance processes and find solutions that could be replicated in others territories, through participatory procedures that will make possible to develop shared approach on social acceptance issues.
