Renewable energy bills threaten to put families in Sardinia (and beyond) in crisis . A legislative decree establishes that assistance be provided to multinationals for their energy production , regardless of grid feed-in or consumption. Activists against the assault on the island thunder: " Article 6 of Legislative Decree 5, in force since February 4th, establishes that a welfare contribution be provided, because this assistance benefits multinationals , no longer based on megawatts but on the production of a wind or photovoltaic project." In short, everything will be covered by our bills . Sardinian parliamentarians: "We will intervene."
The protest. "We have plans for 48,000 megawatts : if incentives should really be awarded not on production but on producibility, it means that multinationals will not only share the €60 billion from the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP), but they will also get the money from our bills ," says Davide Fadda, spokesperson for the Sardinian People's protest . "That is, every time a wind or photovoltaic plant is connected to the GSE (Energy Services Manager), we start paying the incentives , which will therefore be borne by the citizens." Electricity bills will become the primary expense for families: bills will be included in system charges, completely unrelated to consumption.
In Rome . On the parliamentary front, Pietro Pittalis, a Forza Italia MP and vice president of the Chamber of Deputies' Justice Committee, speaks for the center-right majority: "We will carefully examine this practice: the bills cannot burden the lives of Sardinians more than they do now ." Francesca Ghirra, a member of the Progressives party , in opposition to the government, is more severe: " On the entire energy issue, the government is proving to be very vague, not to say contradictory ," observes the Cagliari MP. " Decree number 6 places the burden of the system primarily on the communities , with an incentive plan and a model that risks being cloned in the enabling bill currently being drafted on nuclear power, and which we will do everything to oppose."
