Molise Energy and Environment Plan Regional Plan for Energy and Environment Regional Plan for Energy and Environment approved in 2006 approved in 2006

Most of the energy used in the Region Molise comes from traditional fuels.

ENEA CCEI Campobasso - Biblioteca Albino - 22 aprile Dott. Giovanni Iannantuono3 Thermoelectric energy from fossil fuels Year 2007 – MW 5.179,7 GWh = 93,5%

ENEA CCEI Campobasso - Biblioteca Albino - 22 aprile Dott. Giovanni Iannantuono4 Thermoelectric Energy from renewable sources Year 2007 – 41 MW 92,6 GWh = 1,7 % Further 87 MW

ENEA CCEI Campobasso - Biblioteca Albino - 22 aprile Dott. Giovanni Iannantuono5 Hydro-electric Energy Year 2007 – 84,70 MW 120,4 GWh = 2,2% Further 3 MW The plants are located along the Biferno river

The Region Molise intends to develope also the wind energy…but where these plants can be installed to safeguard the environment?
