## Event overview

More than 300 registrants attended White Focus 2023, White Energy Group's annual online in-depth event. The program focused on decarbonization and industrial transition through keynote contributions on technical solutions, contracts, incentives and related products.

## Energy communities and remote self-consumption

A central theme was energy communities and remote self-consumption, together with the Italian government's CER decree, which the page reports had received approval in Brussels during the event.

The Italian proposal described on the page includes a dedicated €5.7 billion fund for the spread of renewable-energy self-consumption models.

Alessandro Spiri of White Energy explained that remote self-consumption can allow companies to use energy produced by plants located several kilometers away while accessing incentives associated with energy communities without directly participating in them.

The page also reports that, under the draft decree discussed at the event, for individual remote self-consumption the portion of the incentive exceeding 55% would have to be allocated to third parties other than companies, including families, public bodies, NGOs, sports clubs or social purposes.

## Incentives and renewable technologies

The page states that the MASE decree provides:

- an incentive tariff for renewable energy produced and shared;
- a grant;
- total fundable capacity of 5 GW;
- a time limit through the end of 2027.

The benefits are described as available for renewable technologies including:

- photovoltaic;
- wind;
- hydro;
- biomass.

## Industrial decarbonization technologies

Other presentations addressed:

- incentive tools for decarbonization;
- cogeneration for industry;
- integration of cogeneration with photovoltaics;
- ultra-high-efficiency thermal power plants.

Experts participating alongside Whitenergy represented Fire Italia, Algowatt, AB Energy, Unical and Sani Zangrando.

## White Energy perspective

White Energy CEO Gianluigi Mele described energy transition as a necessity for companies seeking to reduce costs and environmental impact while remaining competitive and sustainable. He emphasized the importance of combining knowledge of technologies and applications with knowledge of grants, incentives and tax benefits specific to each application and sector.
