The further growth of the national real estate market passes for the restructuring of public and private buildings, through an improvement of access to funding for energy requalification (the so-called "green mortgage loans") and a greater awareness that the valorization of one's own property represents a important form of investment.
This is what emerges from the second national round table on the "Funding of energy redevelopment of buildings in Italy" organized in Rome by the European Commission in collaboration with the Abi, the Ministry of Economic Development and Enea with the aim of further developing the dialogue among the main public and private interlocutors in Italy on how to facilitate access to credit, reduce the risks associated with the implementation of energy requalification works, identify common development objectives to be brought to the current regulatory framework.
In this regard, an important element on which to act is - as emerged from the meeting - the identification of tools / initiatives aimed at favoring:
- the exploitation of available information on the energy performance of buildings;
- a strengthening of existing guarantee funds, such as the "Home Fund" of the Ministry of Economy and Finance (awaiting refinancing), to generate energy requalification of residential properties;
- the stimulus for a cultural renewal on the economic convenience of inhabiting a "green building" or the positive impact of the degree of energy efficiency on the market value of real estate.
The hypothesis of the establishment of a permanent technical committee between national and European public institutions, as well as operators on the market, aimed at pursuing these objectives is under construction.
