The regions covered are:

- Basilicata
- Calabria
- Campania
- Molise
- Puglia
- Sardinia
- Sicily

Eligible production units must be located in industrial, production or craft areas of municipalities with more than 5,000 inhabitants in those regions.

The stated purpose is to promote renewable-energy self-production for immediate and deferred self-consumption, with priority for industrial, production and craft areas.

Beneficiaries may be companies of any size, including business networks with legal personality, subject to the administrative and compliance requirements stated by the call. Companies operating in coal, primary agricultural production, fishing and aquaculture are excluded.

## Eligible measures and technical requirements

Eligible investments include:

- photovoltaic and/or thermo-photovoltaic systems for immediate self-consumption, up to **1 MWp** of nominal capacity;
- behind-the-meter electrochemical storage, provided that at least **75%** of the energy charged into storage comes from the renewable-energy plant;
- upgrades to existing systems, while complete replacement is not eligible.

The page lists these binding requirements:

- each project must concern a single production unit fully available to the applicant company;
- the company must hold the electricity withdrawal account to which the supported system will be connected;
- the investment project must start after the application is submitted;
- storage cannot be installed as a standalone measure without a photovoltaic system.

## Aid intensity and application window
