In the 2009-11 period, EUR 22 million has been approved in the electricity sector and EUR 1 million in the gas sector (ERSE, 2010). Landscape integration (e.g. use of traditional building materials and local vegetation, underground cables) and birdlife protection (e.g. installation of anti-collision and anti-perching devices, installation of nesting platforms for white storks, compensation measures for the Bonelli’s eagle) make up for the majority of the approved environmental costs of the electric utilities. Electricity suppliers in the retail market must provide in the bill and/or via internet information on the fuel mix from which the electricity they provide is generated and related environmental impacts in terms of C02, S02 and NOx emissions per GWh and radioactive waste.
