Italy Conto Termico 3.0
Administered by Gestore dei Servizi Energetici (GSE)
About this program
Conto Termico 3.0 is Italy's updated state incentive programme worth EUR 900 million annually, administered by GSE and regulated by Ministerial Decree 07/08/2025. The programme came into force on 25 December 2025, replacing the previous Conto Termico 2.0. It provides incentives covering up to 65% of eligible costs for renewable energy and energy efficiency improvements, rising to 100% for certain public sector projects (schools, hospitals, small municipalities). The budget is split: EUR 400 million for public administrations, EUR 500 million for private entities and companies, and EUR 20 million for innovative solutions. While primarily focused on thermal energy (heat pumps, solar thermal, biomass), it supports integrated renewable energy systems.
