Highlights

  • Italy aims to reach a share of 39% of renewables in final consumption in 2030.
  • The country is reviving nuclear, focusing on small modular reactors (SMRs).
  • Enel, Eni, A2A, and Edison account for 40% of power generation, while around 1/3 of the electricity retail market is supplied by Enel (2023).
  • Eni still dominates gas supply (2/3 of production and 1/3 of imports in 2023), while Snam and Italgas are strengthening their positions in gas infrastructures and gas distribution.
  • The share of renewables in the power mix has increased by 23 points since 2010, reaching 50% in 2024, of which 13% is from solar.
  • Italy imports 19% of its electricity consumption and more than 90% of its oil and gas consumption (2024).
  • Energy prices are decreasing since 2023. Since 2021, significant measures have been introduced to cushion soaring prices on end-consumer bills.
  • Energy consumption has declined by 3.7%/year since 2021. It now stands 28% below its peak level of 2005.
  • The country aims to become a European energy hub through new gas pipelines, power interconnexions, and H2 interconnection projects.

  • Institutions & Energy Policy

    The Ministry of the Environment and Energy Security (MASE), through Its Department for Energy (DiE), oversees the energy sector. The Interministerial Committee for Economic Planning and Sustainable Development (CIPESS) is in charge of national economic and budgetary decisions regarding the energy sector, among others.

  • Energy Companies

    Oil:

    Eni (31.8% state-owned) is the national oil and gas utility. No single shareholder can hold more than 3% of the capital, and any grouping of shareholders is subject to the prior approval of the Treasury.

  • Energy Supply

    Oil:

    Crude oil and NGL production is low, ranging between 4 and 6.5 Mt/year since 2000. Despite an 18% rebound in 2023 to 5.7 Mt after two years of decline, it fell again by 17% to 4.7 Mt in 2024.

  • Energy Prices

    Electricity:

    Electricity prices fell in 2023 and 2024 (-18%/year), after surging in 2021 and 2022, especially for industry (+14% in 2021 and +86% in 2022). Residential tariffs grew by 5% in 2021 and 46% in 2022.

  • Energy Consumption

    Italy's per capita energy consumption is 17% lower than the EU average (2.3 toe in 2023). Electricity consumption per capita is 9% below the EU average at around 4 900 kWh.

  • Issues & Prospects

    Gas:

    According to the latest forecast by Snam, gas consumption is expected to decrease by 1 to 1.3%/year between 2023 and 2035 and by 1.9 to 2.8%/year between 2035 and 2040.
