Skateland Putty Hill Party Package
updated guidance on bonus of 55% PV
There 's another year to take advantage of tax deductions to the extent of 55% energy on the redevelopment involving the reduction of energy requirements, replacement of windows, doors, floors and air conditioning systems or installing solar panels. The personal income tax bonus will end 'to December 31, 2010 In fact, since the Finance Act 2010 has not extended as a success, however, the incentive of 36% for measures to recover the property.
But it also said that next year will be 's easier to take advantage of this discount if you install solar panels or improved energy performance of their home. In recent months, in fact, legislation and 'has been variously modified and determined by the Decree of 02/19/2007, Law No. 244/2007, by DL 185/2008, the Act No. 2 / 2009 and most recently by the Inter-Ministerial Decree of 08/06/2009.
News' now contained in new guidance the Inland Revenue "Tax incentives for energy efficiency." It is about fifty pages that summarize what are the benefits of 55%, those who can 'use, the actions involved, the type of expense and the related deduction and the steps necessary to achieve it.
As regards the procedures to follow should be noted that it 'was fixed allocation in five equal annual installments for the efforts made to tax from the year 2009 (for 2008 ranged from a minimum of three to a maximum 10 years while only for the year 2007 there was an obligation to share the cost in 3 equal annual installments), and 'was intended to be exempt from the submission of the certification for the replacement of windows and installation of solar panels the ability 'to use the facility for the installation of other types of heating and finally and' was replaced with retroactive effect, the table of the limits of thermal transmittance.
When you build the model, however, the registrant must describe the data, those relating to property, the date of start of construction and the types of interventions with the costs, up to a limit which varies depending on the type of action performed: upgrading the energy efficiency of existing buildings (maximum deduction, € 100 thousand), of interventions on existing buildings (maximum deduction, € 60 thousand), carrying out installation of solar panels ( maximum deduction, € 60 thousand), substitution of winter heating systems (maximum deduction, € 30 thousand).
Another thing for the mode 'to follow in the event that the work continue beyond a fiscal year. The Agency has provided a model ad hoc, approved by decision of 6 May last conductor, should be used for expenditure from tax year following the year in progress at December 31, 2008, and since 2009 for the generality 'of taxpayers and for those individuals with exercise coincides with the calendar year. Should be sent only electronically, the taxpayer directly or through intermediaries, within 90 days after the end of the tax period in which work has begun. Therefore, communication for work undertaken in 2009 and will continue next year, will be sent before March 31, 2010.
If the interventions are continuing for more 'tax periods, the communication will go' made within 90 days after the end of each period. The subjects other than individuals with taxable year does not coincide with the calendar year must submit the data within 90 days after the end of the tax period in which the expenditure was incurred.

prices will drop drastically by the end of
renewable technologies are too expensive? Not anymore. This could be the slogan on the results of a study recently published by New Energy Finance, a global leader in the analysis of markets for alternative energy sources. According to the results tell us before the end of the year between the sources will be particularly the cost of photovoltaic technologies to record the greatest collapse, even 50% less than allo stesso periodo di un anno fa.
Le stime di New Energy Finance informano che per quel che riguarda i pannelli fotovoltaici l’abbassamento più consistente nel prezzo si avvertirà nelle tecnologie a film sottile capaci, sembrerebbe, di raggiungere un valore intorno ai circa 3 dollari al Watt. Come interpretare questi dati? La riduzione degli incentivi verrà davvero compensata dall’abbassamento dei prezzi?
Stiamo a vedere, di certo se riduzione ci sarà tarderemo non poco a vederne gli effetti al consumatore. Lo studio comunque non si ferma qui, tanto che anche il costo delle turbine eoliche dovrebbe raggiungere il livello più basso di sempre attestandosi ad un prezzo inferiore del 20% entro fine anno, partially offset by higher construction costs of projects involving the installation of turbines at sea and in deep water.
Geothermal energy, in turn, will register a significant decline (40%) in parallel with the decline in oil prices. Leading global investment in clean energy are the United States and Europe, with a significant leap forward for China and South Korea together, says New Energy Finance have allocated to green sources about $ 500 billion through its own stimulus plans economy.

Alternative energy: the "distribution" of skills in Italy
A review of regional regulations, in order to analyze some case studies and to understand what-how-when you can start making
In a previous post I drew a picture of the main problems that afflict the production of energy from renewable sources, highlighting that, at present, not the multicolored puzzle Italian law allows you to define a coherent energy and environmental policy and perspective. In a word: sustainable.
Before getting into the discussion of regional regulations, in order to analyze some case studies and to understand how what-when-you can begin to do (and not just say) "something sustainable," it is important to understand what is il quadro costituzionale all’interno del quale le normative regionali – emanate, è bene ricordarlo, in modo disorganico, a causa della perdurante e quasi compiaciuta mancanza di linee guida nazionali – sono state promulgate.
Com’è noto, la legge costituzionale n. 3/2001 ha modificato l’art. 117 della Costituzione, demandando alla competenza concorrente Stato-Regioni la materia “produzione, trasporto e distribuzione nazionale di energia”, in base alla quale, in sostanza, allo Stato spetta la determinazione dei principi fondamentali della disciplina, mentre le Regioni sono chiamate ad esercitare il proprio potere legislativo nel rispetto di tali principi.
In coerenza con this approach, the art. 12 of Legislative Decree 387/03, outlining the essential characteristics of the single procedure for granting authorizations for the construction and operation of plants fueled by renewable energy sources, it is limited to determining the fundamental principles of matter, that the regions must respected in the formulation of detailed regulations.
As mentioned, the lack of national guidelines has resulted in the birth and proliferation of a real "jungle law", and the situation today, it seems very nebulous.
The regions with special status, in fact, have made different choices with each other:
- in Sicily, Sardinia and Autonomous Province of Bolzano, for example, were not adopted specific regulations of the licensing procedure only;
- in the Autonomous Province of Trento, however, the Administration adopted a provisional rules of procedure unified
- in Friuli-Venezia-Giulia there is a system under which provinces, delegates from the region, I can sub-delegate certain functions to the municipalities of authorization;
- Valle d'Aosta, finally, is the only region to have governed the procedure for a single authorization.
Regarding the ordinary statute regions, close to those who have just passed legislation in the energy sector (Piedmont and Emilia Romagna, for example) ce ne sono altre che si sono limitate a determinare l’autorità competente (Lombardia, Veneto, Marche), e altre ancora, le rimanenti, che hanno dettato linee guida per lo svolgimento del procedimento unificato.
Il quadro appena descritto si complica ulteriormente se solo si considerano le difficoltà di “confinare” la maggior parte degli eventi, oggetto del diritto ambientale, in un preciso ambito territoriale, e l’impossibilità di regolare separatamente “libertà contrapposte” (come quella economica) o interessi connessi ma parzialmente divergenti (l’energia, la tutela della salute, il governo del territorio, la caccia, la pesca, la valorizzazione dei beni ambientali, tanto per citarne alcune), oggetto di potestà normative ripartite fra diversi livelli di competenza (esclusiva statale, regionale concorrente, regionale residuale).
Senza sottacere degli ostacoli connessi alle scelte politiche, le barriere di natura amministrativa, infrastrutturale, sociale, finanziaria, e l’elevato grado di conoscenze specialistiche in materie tecnico-scientifiche che sono richieste agli organi chiamati ad esplicarle.
Ma: cosa dice l’interpretazione costituzionale a proposito della divisione dei compiti energetico-ambientali fra Stato e Regioni, che crea così tante difficoltà applicative ed interpretative?
Nella sua evoluzione storica, la Corte Costituzionale ha guidelines ranged from hostile to the splitting of the regional environmental guidelines and - to use a technical term - to recognize the regions to a plurality of titles of legislative legitimacy ", in line with the knowledge that, meanwhile, was taking place: the environment should receive the maximum protection possible, regardless of the origin of the standards themselves.
So, over the years, Look has come to configure the environment as "good life", and complex material, an organic entity, whose discipline - which involves a primary public interest in constitutional and absolute, and must ensure , as required Community law, a high level of protection, such as mandatory by other rules of the sector - has been entrusted exclusively to the State, which should dictate "protection rules which relate to the whole and individual components considered parts of the whole. "
In these cases, the governing unit of the good overall environment, reconstruction exclusively to the State, take precedence over the one dictated by the Regions in their competence, and with reference to other interests: in essence, the environment functions as a limit to the legislation that the region called in other matters within their competence, so they can not in any way derogate from or worsen the level of protection environment established by the State.
Recently, the Constitutional Court, in relation to a regional legislation which contains provisions on energy (LR Basilicata, No. 9 / 2007) emphasized that "the art. 12, Section 10 of Legislative Decree no. 387, 2003 (link to first post) is to be considered an expression of state responsibility in environmental protection, as [...] has as chief purpose, to protect the landscape. The legislature, in fact, has explicitly ruled that the guidelines are aimed, in those farms, the landscape. The prevalence of landscape protection sought by the provision in question, does not preclude it, as inserted in the most comprehensive regulation to simplify procedures authorize the installation of systems powered by renewable sources, will also impact on other materials (production and delivery of energy, the government of the territory) attributed to the concurrent jurisdiction. "
Against this background, the Constitutional Court ruled that the presence of various legislative powers to the regions does not allow - precisely because the overriding interest of environmental protection intended by the provision state - to provide independently for the identification of criteria for the proper insertion in the landscape plants fueled by alternative energy sources.

Does The Butterfly Rash Come And Go
A renewable Concerto played in 45 European cities
A project funded by the European Commission to integrate renewable energy in our cities
The little play on words of the title is the exact explanation of the project of the European Commission Concerto. An initiative that aims to demonstrate the environmental, economic and social integration of renewable energy sources, in the neighborhoods of our cities.
The ways in which to prove the value of integration is obtained - by targeting - the highest level of energy independence as possible.
Participants at the moment, 45 cities in concert.
Concerto In Italy is active in Alexandria. The city of Piedmont has already risen to the headlines because environmental awarded a prize by the Ministry of Environment for the construction of a solar village, a complex of eight buildings surrounded by greenery, with adjoining pedestrian areas and rooftop solar panels installed - to develop a total capacity of 170 kWp. Through Concerto
the municipal administration, in collaboration with the Polytechnic of Turin and the local provincial institutions, has implemented an integrated approach to sustainability at the neighborhood level, dispensing with conventional fossil energy resources and involving stakeholders, residents and neighborhood associations interested in surgery.
The project in the city of Alexandria is called the Piano Concerto, which expired in 2011 and will include: energy audits of about 3,000 homes, the rehabilitation of 300 affordable housing energy-popular, the construction of a new eco-village, interventions social housing, the implementation of measures to green and to improve the infrastructure, adoption of measures for the social and economic revitalization.
To achieve these objectives, the administration has made significant technological choices, such as the adoption of insulating materials to reduce by about 50% less use of renewable sources - such as heat, solar and biomass tri-generation (with the simultaneous production of electricity and heat).
Concerto counts, in which it is active in 45 cities, 18 different projects and is part of the Research Framework Programme run by the Directorate General for Energy and Transport of the European Commission.
