Description
Summary:Starting from the relationship between urban planning and mobility management, TeMA has gradually expanded the view of the covered topics, always remaining in the groove of rigorous scientific in-depth analysis. This section of the Journal, Review Notes, is the expression of continuously updating emerging topics concerning relationships between urban planning, mobility and environment, through a collection of short scientific papers written by young researchers. The Review Notes are made of four parts. Each section examines a specific aspect of the broader information storage within the main interests of TeMA Journal. This section, International Regulations and Legislation for the Energy Transition, explores the challenges and opportunities in the urban context to understand the evolving landscape of the global energy transition. The contribution explores how Italian local authorities contribute to the energy transition, in line with European directives. It highlights the importance of territorial governance plans and urban transformation tools in promoting the use of renewable energies and reducing emissions. Renewable Energy Communities (RECs) are identified as key instruments, thanks to the direct involvement of citizens and local energy autonomy. Finally, the contribution also highlights the challenges related to regulatory fragmentation and the need for greater coordination.
