• Some numbers (percentage of
Italian total):
– Regional GDP
= 21%
– 800,000 Enterprises = 15%
– Financial deposits
= 26%
– International trade = 40%
• Unemployment ratio < 3.5%
• The highest number of
Universities
• The highest expenditure in
scientific research

Electric demand growth
25% in 10 years
• 150 thermoelectric plants

• 300 hydroelectric plants
(4,000 MWe = 31.2% prod.)

Region of Lombardy:
Action For Environmental Sustainability
The Environment Quality Department of the Lombardy Region - Unit for
reduction of emissions and environmental sustainability - has been working for
many years on different initiatives concerning:
 Awareness raising of toots for the implementation of environmental
sustainability within the framework of according to Governance policies: Local
A21 processes, Green Public Procurement, Environmental Accountability,
Energy efficiency, Sustainable Tourism.
 LA21 projects financing and monitoring.
 Orientation and technical support for local authorities (towns, cities, provinces,
parks) in the definition and management of pilot projects in the field of
environmental sustainability (e.g. Action Plans for Kyoto).
 Definition of cooperation agreements with institutions (Research Centres,
Universities, Chamber of Commerce) for specific Action Plans.
 Strategic environmental assessment and environmental mainstreaming in EU
Structural Funds Programs.
 Measures to improve the air quality and reduce greenhouse gases emissions.

Best practices - example 1:
 Project Life SENOMI (Region of Lombardy and European Commission)
Spread the application of EMAS regulation in Northern Milan area
Carry out an operative environmental program of the industrial area
 Management Committee SENOMI
Created in November 2005
Took part it: Sesto San Giovanni Municipality, the Province of Milan, Milano
Metropoli Development Agency, North Milan Businessman’s Association and the
companies LEVA Arti Grafiche, Autotrasposti Fraconti, SAI Automazioni,
supported by Chamber of Commerce of Milan
The Committee actions have focused on an area, chosen as object of
experimentation and called Concordia Sud Falck District (Sesto San Giovanni)
EMAS registration in December 2006
8
Best practices - example 1:
The SENOMI Management Committee is in charge of implementing the
Environmental Program and therefore has the job of coordinating the EMAS
eco-management and auditing system for the districts’ common areas and
services (waste, parks and gardens, water, energy) and collaborating with
local and private bodies to improve the environmental performances of the
services themselves
In the SENOMI project, the Environmental Program takes the form of an
agreement between the players of the Falck Concordia Sud industrial district
and those of the area – private and public entities – that have to ensure that
it is implemented
The implementation stage is coordinated and monitored by an EcoManagement System that provides instruments for checking the indicators
identified by the Program, the procedures put in place and state of progress
of the Environmental Program itself. This System has been validated by an
independent and accredited third party
9
Best practices - example 1:
 First EMAS registration in the field of homogeneous productive spheres
projects
 Private-public partnership
 Many companies have joined EMAS individually
 The experience can become a referring point at local and national level
 Integration with other environmental local projects

Best practices - example 2:
• Implementation of GPP (Green Public Procurement) in Regione
Lombardia
New regional regulation imposing GPP (l.r. 24/2006)
Rationalization of procurements according to the new law
Achievement of national targets (save of energy and reduction of
CO2 emission)
Call for tenders concerning communication, low impact vehicles
purchase, high efficiency domestic appliances (more than 2 M€)
