At the end of 2021, due to expensive energy, 6.8% of small Sardinian companies risked closing. The 10.6, on the other hand, stated that he should have to reduce the activity. This was demonstrated by a survey of the Cna (National Confederation of Handicrafts) on the activities registered with the association. Which have been questioned again in these days.

The result of the survey is alarming: "Today, with the substantial duplication of the energy impact on company costs", explain Luigi Tomasi and Francesco Porcu, respectively president and regional secretary of Cna Sardinia, "it is estimated that 13.6% is no longer able to continue the activity and 21.2 is forced to reduce activity and consequently also employment ”.

Having pointed out a known problem, the representatives of the category are also looking for solutions: "The massive spread of renewable energy sources, thanks also to the spread of energy communities", they explain, "could positively affect small local communities in Sardinia by limiting the surge in costs energy which is having a particular impact on businesses and households ".

Photovoltaic production, Cna leaders continue, "could grow a lot and quickly without consuming land if only the surfaces available today of most of the industrial and artisan" sheds "that could be destined for self-production and self-consumption to the companies incentivized by a tax credit ". That the association" proposes to the extent of 50% of the costs incurred for the installation of self-production plants from renewable sources up to 200 kW ".
