From 2005 to 2022, there is an increase in energy and economic efficiency, as well as progressive decarbonization of the national economy. In Italy, energy demand per unit of GDP has decreased by 23.4%, while greenhouse gas emissions have decreased by 32%. Similarly, greenhouse gas emissions per unit of energy consumed in all major production sectors have fallen since 2005: -7.8% in agriculture, -10.4% in industry, and -22.6% in services. In terms of renewable energy, Italy is second only to Sweden among the major European countries in terms of share of gross domestic consumption from renewable sources. In 2022, the national share of renewable energy in gross domestic consumption is 19%, while the European average is 18.4%. This is what emerges from the energy and economic statistics in relation to greenhouse gas emissions and energy consumption in the 2024 edition of the ISPRA Report "Efficiency and decarbonization indicators in Italy and in the biggest European countries".
