During the meeting, in addition to the presentation of the many tools that the GSE makes available to local authorities, the “VIVI – Territorio Vivibile” Award was awarded, dedicated to virtuous municipalities that have distinguished themselves in the implementation of energy requalification interventions of public property. The local public administrations awarded with the plaque were: the Municipality of Trento, the Municipality of Folgaria, the Municipality of Vallelaghi and the Municipality of Pergine Valsugana.

The meeting, in addition to allowing a discussion with the GSE on the incentive tools that best respond to the needs of the local production fabric, was an opportunity to analyze, with a specific focus, the characteristics of Transition 5.0 and to learn in detail the prerogatives and benefits of renewable energy communities.
