Eligible applicants
Italian and foreign businesses established in Italy, of any size, may apply if they operate in tourism. Business owners of tourism facilities may also apply using the operator’s qualifying requirements. Businesses active for at least three years must show that more than 50% of turnover derives from tourism activities.
Programme size and structure
Eligible programmes must range from €1 million to €15 million. Core energy-efficiency or renewable-energy measures must represent at least 51% of eligible expenditure. Connected measures may include digitalisation, automation, smart metering, ESG investments and consumption reduction.
Support
Within the applicable State-aid limits, the predefined package consists of 54% grant and 46% subsidised financing. The actual intensity and amount depend on the applicable aid regime, eligible costs and the assessed project.
Deadline and procedure
Applications are filed online through Invitalia’s personal area. The extended deadline is 5:00 pm on 8 October 2026. Digital identity, digital signature, certified email and the required attachments are necessary. Starting the online form does not amount to filing it.
Practical action
Applicants with a mature project should immediately verify attachments, signatures, financial size, the 51% energy threshold, applicant eligibility and successful filing. A complex investment should not be improvised merely to meet today’s deadline.
