The Municipality is against the hypothesis of the infrastructure useful for the country to overcome the energy crisis of recent months. Snam and the Region have given maximum guarantees.

Piombino regasification terminal: the Municipality-Region clash continues. Will Giorgia Meloni decide in the end?

Not a small issue at all, but a decision on the regasifier of Piombino in the end maybe she'll take it herself,Giorgia Meloni as Chairman of the Board. In his inaugural speech in the House he spoke of expensive bills and energy. Unfortunately in Piombino a mayor from his party, Francis Ferrari continues to say no to the gas facility in the Tuscan port. The last meeting of the Services Conference gave a favorable opinion with the President of Tuscany Eugenio Giani, now ready to sign the authorization. What will happen in the next few hours, no one knows, but the political-administrative turn that the story has taken is not good for Italy and in some ways also casts a shadow on the new prime minister's good energy intentions. The Mayor announced a appeal to the TAR against the opinion of the Region. So that the right in government that wants to overcome the energy crisis by pushing forward all that the Draghi government would not have done (?) at this point is clearly embarrassed. Certain Melons he will have an idea on how to get out of it, but he still can't see it. According to the President of the Region, the ship with the gas will remain in the port of Piombino for only three years "and within 45 days Snam (the company that manages the gas) will have to indicate where to mount the offshore platform where the ship will provide service in the following 22 years".

Does the regasification terminal not give guarantees of safety and health?

Mayor Ferrari does not want to hear about it and has the committees on his side that attack the centre-left region. The City moves even with correspondence and formal complaints, so much so that in the Services Conference he put on the table some technical remarks with which they ask security guarantees need public health. Why Italy with about 5 million people who do not pay bills for the increased prices, must he chain himself to questions of principle? Snam and the Region have provided ample guarantees from this point of view. The NO front to give a hand to the Mayor stands even organizing a provincial strike. The left, moreover, has some internal distinctions.

The Piombino infrastructure useful for overcoming the energy crisis

“The sea is life and the regasifier is death”, is one of the slogans shouted, while the political story in Tuscany as in Rome has completely different characteristics. “Italy has a wealth of green energy too often blocked by bureaucracy and incomprehensible vetoes” he said Giorgia Meloni to the Chamber. Are the taboo' against which Draghi e crawlers they struggled for about two years. Cingolani, meanwhile, has become a consultant to Palazzo Chigi. The fact is that at the moment we need to get busy at a national level on all sources to "strengthen the measures to support families and businesses - says the premier - on bills and fuel, with massive support to create a barrier to expensive energy ”. The regasification terminal is a part of it. The difficulty lies precisely in the make Piombino's opponents understand that that regasification terminal will alleviate the suffering of millions of families and businesses. In fact, the dispute over the infrastructure concerns the next few decades. A horizon "we want to look at is not next year or the next electoral deadline, what interests us is how Italy will be in ten years". These are Giorgia Meloni's words from which a definitive pronouncement is expected.
