The 15th of December 2022 the Regional Government approved the REECP, that coordinates all regional policies to mitigate climate change.

The REECP is built on four basic guidelines:

- reduction of consumption with increased efficiency in end-use sectors;

- development of local renewable sources and promotion of self-consumption;

- expansion of the production system, development and financing of research and innovation in the decarbonization service and green economy;

- adaptive and resilient response of the Lombard energy system to climate change.

Taking as a reference the “Fit for 55” European strategy, it aims to reduce climate gas emissions to 43.5 million tons by 2030, which means a 43.8% reduction compared to 2005 levels. In addition to the target for reducing climate-changing emissions, the aim is to reduce energy end-use consumption by 35.2% and to produce energy from renewables for 35.8% of final energy consumption.

To achieve these goals the programme contains various lines of action, which will be detailed and implemented subsequently by constructing specific projects, focusing on expressing to the most the potential of the various areas.
