The Agenzia nazionale per le nuove tecnologie, l'energia e lo sviluppo economico sostenibile (ENEA) (''Italian National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development'') is an Italian Government-sponsored research and development agency. The agency undertakes research in areas which will help to develop and enhance Italian competitiveness and employment, while protecting the environment. ==History== Initially (1982), ENEA was an acronym that stood for ''Energia Nucleare ed Energie Alternative'' ("Atomic Energy and Alternative Energy"), according to its mission statement. After a referendum against the production of atomic energy in Italy (following the Chernobyl nuclear reactor disaster in 1986) passed in 1987, in 1991 ENEA mission statement changed and, consequently, its complete name, which became ''Ente per le nuove tecnologie, l'energia e l’ambiente'' ("Agency for new technologies, energy and environment").〔(Italian Senate archive (PDF) )〕 In January 1999 a new charter readdressed the goals for the agency as follows: * To undertake initiatives aimed at developing, enhancing and promoting research and innovation, in keeping with Italy’s EU and international commitments in terms of energy efficiency, environmental protection and technological innovation. * To support the implementation of high-tech production processes, especially by promoting demand for research and technology oriented towards enhancing sustainable development. * To promote the transfer of technology and developments in the fields of energy efficiency and environmental protection to public administrations and businesses, in keeping with national and EU guidelines. * To provide, upon request, specialist technical and organisational support to administrations promoting public initiatives at the international, national, regional and local levels, in all the sectors falling within ENEA’s purview. In July 2009 the Italian parliament passed a law readdressing ENEA's mission statement, including back atomic energy, and contextually changing its complete name to the current one.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=L 99/2009 )〕 After Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster in 2011 a second referendum against atomic energy production was held, and passed again. As the role of ENEA became contradictory to the referendum outcome, it is awaiting a further restructuring process and a new mission statement coherent with the Italian energy policy. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「ENEA (Italy)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
