Abstract

The study investigates the renewable energy measures undertaken in Germany and Italy in the aftermath of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. They decided to adopt new regulations on renewable energy to accelerate its development. However, their energy policy strategies reveal differences connected with political and geographical factors, the role of national energy companies, and climate conditions. The analysis considers their impact on the progress of Germany and Italy in developing renewable energy. It also highlights the main constraints and drivers for the energy transition.
