Nei processi di transizione energetica, il dispaccio di energia termica attraverso le reti di teleriscaldamento e la produzione di energia elettrica attraverso l'eolico rivestono un ruolo centrale. I tecnici, infatti, ritengono che la complementarietà di questi due modi di produrre e distribuire energia può essere una risposta ai problemi di bilanciamento della rete nella fase di transizione. Da un punto di vista sociale, inoltre, queste due tecnologie potrebbero contribuire a rafforzare modelli di co-fornitura coinvolgendo nuovi attori sociali nel campo energetico. Tuttavia, la loro reale evoluzione socio-organizzativa appare contraddittoria. In Italia, queste due tecnologie sono dominate da grandi utilities e non si registrano casi di circolarità tra teleriscaldamento ed eolico. Inoltre, in Italia non sembra emergere un modello univoco di transizione, ma diversi modelli regionali, che danno vita tutti insieme e con pesi diversi alla transizione su scala nazionale. L'influenza dei caratteri socio-territoriali sembra rilevante. Per questa ragione, il capitolo si focalizza sulle dimensioni istituzionali, relazionali e territoriali per spiegare come le innovazioni energetiche prendono forma nei contesti locali. Queste dimensioni sono analizzate indagando la diffusione del teleriscaldamento e dell'eolico. ; In the energy transition process, district heating networks and wind farms play a key role. The technicians believe that the complementarity between these two methods of producing electrical and thermal energy can be a response to the problems of balancing the network during the transition phase. From the social point of view, these two technologies could contribute to establish models of co-provision involving new social actors in the energy field. Despite that, the their real socio-organizational change appears contradictory. In Italy, these options are dominated by large utilities and there are no cases of circularity between wind power and district heating. Furthemore, an Italian model of transition does not emerge, but many regional models, which give a non-univocal shape to the transition on a national scale. The influence of socio-territorial features on the energy transition seem relevant. For this reason, the chapter focuses on the institutional, relational and territorial dimensions to unfold how energy innovations take place within territorial contexts. In this respect, energy transition is investigated considering both the district heating and the wind power in Italy.

The theoretical reflection on development policies, at national and international level, has focused attention on the need to identify new strategies for social inclusion able to promote local development by putting in the center the quality of life and the rights of citizenship. This is all the more valid in the rural and marginal areas of our country, where the lack of access to essential resources and services and the distance from the central poles of supply-ing basic services are a strong limit to the wellbeing of the inhabitants and the development of their capacity for actively live and therefore promote the development of the territory. In Italy, internal areas are historically affected by migratory routes and the rooting of a new population is the lever through which to combat depopulation. The substantial presence of the population with non-Italian citizens reveals some exogenous criticalities of the new ap-proaches (resident foreigners are not citizens with full rights), but can constitute a potential for regenerating the identity and economies of the internal areas, if the policies public au-thorities are able to include and activate the skills of this portion of the population accord-ing to a model of sustainable local development.
