Who qualifies

Renewable energy communities and collective self-consumption groups, constituted as legal entities.

What it funds

Generating plant and the incentive on energy shared between members within the same primary substation.

What disqualifies an applicant

What it stacks with

These instruments combine with this one. Grants generally cannot double-fund the same cost, but different components of the same project may each carry their own support, and tax credits stack more freely with grants than grants do with each other.

Film

Applying, without losing the money

The order that protects funding you have already been awarded.

How Italian enterprise support is structured, and why sequence matters more than eligibility. Plays from YouTube. Nothing loads from YouTube until you press play.
From employed to owner

You do not have to resign to begin

The most common route onto this platform starts with a job, a skill and an evening. Ownership is the destination, not the entry requirement.

Stage one

Keep the income

The venture is built around the job rather than instead of it. Registration, the first customer and the funding application all happen while the salary continues.

No change to household income

Stage two

Prove the demand

First revenue arrives alongside the salary. The question stops being whether people want it and becomes how much they pay and how often.

Typically months four to seven

Stage three

Shift the balance

Hours move across as the venture earns. Reducing to part-time employment is a supported route, not a failure of nerve.

Where most instruments land

Stage four

The business carries you

The venture covers the household and begins repaying its capital. Employment becomes a choice rather than a necessity.

Repayment usually begins here

The six families

Every buildable venture, grouped by what it actually is

Families are not sectors. They group ventures by the shape of the work, the shape of the capital and the shape of the regulation.

Method

How to read the figures on this page

Everything published here is generated from the research corpus rather than written into the page, so a correction reaches every page that depended on it.

Traceable to a source

Every figure resolves to a named document in the corpus of 47 research files, and every judgement is marked as a judgement rather than dressed as data.

Ranges, not projections

Venture economics are modelled ranges drawn from comparable operations. They describe what this kind of business tends to do, not what yours will do.

Confirm against the call

Ceilings, rates and deadlines change and vary by region. Always confirm against the current call text of the administering body before committing anything.

Not advice

This is decision-support material. It is not legal, tax or financial advice, and using it creates no relationship of professional advice.
