The Decree of 11 April 2008 lays down the criteria to stimulate the production of electricity from solar thermodynamic plants, including the hybrid ones, connected to the electricity grid, built in Italy. Plants must be equipped with thermal accumulation systems. On top of the selling price, net electricity produced by thermodynamic solar plants commissioned after 18 July 2008 can obtain a feed-in premium for 25 years. Up to 2012 the bonus varies from EUR 0.22 to EUR 0.28 / kWh depending on the level of integration of the plants. In case of hybrid plants, the feed-in tariff decreases depending on the ratio between the amount of energy not produced by a solar energy source and the amount produced by a solar energy source. The maximum cumulative power of all solar thermodynamic plants eligible for the incentives corresponds to 1.5 million m2 of cumulative surface. The national objective of total power to be installed by 2016 corresponds to 2 million m2 of cumulative surface. For the 2013-2014 period such bonus values will be reduced by 2% a year; from 2014 onward special Ministerial Decree will define further cuts.

At the heart of the monitoring process for the energy transition is the Monitoring Report, which is published on an annual basis. The purpose of this report is to condense the reams of statistical information on energy that have been collected into a smaller, more manageable number of selected indicators. This information provides a fact-based overview of the current status of progress with regard to implementation of the energy reforms. The main source of this data is official energy statistics.

As part of the "Investment for the Future” programme, ADEME (Agence de l'Environnement et de la Maîtrise de l'Énergie - Environment and Energy Management Agency) supports electromobility through a fund dedicated to local authorities willing to deploy charging infrastructure for Plug-in vehicles. The programme was ended in December 2015. IEA/IRENA Global Renewable Energy Policies and Measures Database © OECD/IEA and IRENA, [November 2020]

This programme aims at helping low-income individuals and households to renovate their housings in order to make them more energy efficient and better isolated. The subsidy has an upper limit of 20,000€ per flat/house on a 5 year period. People who do not qualify for this scheme can apply for the Energy Transition Tax Credit (CITE): http://climatepolicydatabase.org/index.php/The_Energy_Transition_Tax_Credit_(CITE)

The Energy Account was introduced in Italy with The Community Directive 2001/77/EC and then transposed with the approval of Legislative Decree 387 of 2003. This mechanism became operational with the entry into force of the Interministerial Decrees of 28/07/2005 and 06/02/2006 (I° Conto Energia)which introduced thesystem of financing for the operation of electricity production. D.M. 19/02/2007 (II° Conto Energia)introduced some innovations such as the application of the incentive tariff on all the energy produced by the plant, the simplification of the rules on access to incentivetariffs and the differentiation of tariffs also according to the type of architectural integration and the size of the plant. There is also a premium for photovoltaic systems combined with the efficient use of energy. In 2010, with D.M. 06/08/2010, the THIRD Energy Account came into force,applicable to plantsthat came into operation from 1 January 2011 until 31 May 2011, which introduced specific tariffs for integrated photovoltaic systems with innovative characteristics and concentrated photovoltaic systems. With Law No. 129/2010 (so-called "Lawsaves Alcoa") the 2010 tariffs of the Second Energy Account were then confirmed to all plants able to certify thecompletion of the works by December 31, 2010 and to enter into operation by June 30, 2011. After the enactment of the Legislative Decree. 28/2011, D.M. 05/05/2011 (IV° Conto Energia)was published, which defined the incentive mechanism for plantsthat entered into operation after 31 May 2011 with the aim of aligning the level of tariffs with the evolution of the costs of photovoltaic technology and introducing an annual cumulative cost limit of incentives, set at 6 billion euros.

The Act contains measures to create a more integrated transport system and provide for a public-private partnership for National Air Traffic Services Ltd (“NATS”). The Act aims to improve local passenger transport services, and reduce road congestion and pollution. The use of railways will be promoted through the Strategic Rail Authority.

"Key drivers adopted in the 10th plan are as follows: - Introduce new programs and projects to increase value added of oil and gas resources in all production activities, and promote industries using these resources. - Increase real value added of non-oil sectors annually by an average of 8.5% of GDP (at constant prices of 2010) and its share from 59.1% in 2014 to 66% in 2019. - Growing the share of private sector in the GDP (at constant prices of 2010) from 44.9% in 2014, to 50.6% in 2019. - Increasing the annual growth rate of the manufacturing industries sector from 8.36%in 2014 to 10.58% in 2019, and the Mining and Quarrying sector from 5.98% in 2014 to 8.56% in 2019. - Increase in public investment is planned for the coming five years, about 2.4 trillion Riyal to finance development projects of the major sectors, including human resources, economic resources, social and health, and infrastructure. The 10th development Plan allocates 372 billion Riyals for spending on infrastructure, which is about 76% more than what was allocated in the 9th Plan. This will be accompanied by new measures for the rationalization of government spending." (http://g20.org.tr/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/g20_comprehensive_growth_strategy_saudi_arabia.pdf) "As a first step towards greater diversification, the plan envisages raising utilisation rates of mineral resources, diversifying sector activities and developing local processing of mining raw materials. In terms of petrochemicals, this will involve developing upstream and downstream industrial activities that depend on oil and gas. Production capacity in the industrial sector will also be expanded in line with the National Industrial Strategy, with an emphasis on projects related to the diversification of energy sources away from oil. The plan aims to increase the contribution of the services sector to GDP, with an emphasis on financial, tourism, transport, engineering, communications and IT services, according to the Ministry of Economy and Planning (MEP)."

The objective of highest priority of the plan is economic development, aiming for an average annual increase in GDP of 6.5-7%. However, the plan also addresses a series of environmental issues, setting targets for GHG emissions, air pollution, energy and water consumption, as well as an update and removal of old technologies and industries. Reduce carbon intensity by 18% by 2020, as compared to 2015. The Plan assigns the responsibility of developing the national carbon trading scheme, to be launched in 2018, to the Government. Coal is capped at 5 billion metric tons per year in 2020. "increase the share of non-fossil fuel energy to 15 percent by 2020; ban commercial logging in natural forests." (http://www.apcoworldwide.com/docs/default-source/default-document-library/Thought-Leadership/13-five-year-plan-think-piece.pdf?sfvrsn=2) It also aims to increase forest coverage to 23.04% (http://www.lse.ac.uk/GranthamInstitute/law/13th-five-year-plan/) One of the aims of the plan with regard to air pollution is to maintain acceptable air quality levels for 80% of the year by 2020. As an action towards achieving air quality improvements, China aims to remove 4 million high-emissions vehicles that are currently on the roads. Subsidies and tax breaks to support new technologies are already in place and will continue to be. Aims to lift 70 million people out of poverty by 2020 (all population currently below the poverty line of annual income 2300 yuan per year) (http://www.apcoworldwide.com/docs/default-source/default-document-library/Thought-Leadership/13-five-year-plan-think-piece.pdf?sfvrsn=2) "Reduction of water consumption by 35% by 2020 as compared with 2013 (which is consistent with the target in the Water Pollution Prevention and Control Action Plan)" (http://www.kwm.com/en/au/knowledge/insights/china-13th-5-year-plan-environment-sustainability-initiatives-20160414) Aims to have 15% energy intensity reduction in 2020 compared to 2015. According to WRI (2016) the included carbon intensity target will decrease by almost 50% by 2020 compared to 2005.
