The Board of Directors of the IACP of Messina, in the meeting of 20 January 2026, unanimously approved the public-private partnership proposal pursuant to article 193 of Legislative Decree no. 36 of 2023, aimed at improving the energy efficiency of the public residential real estate assets owned by the Institute.
Details of the intervention and PNRR funding
In detail, the intervention concerns 152 homes and 4 shops located in Fumarella, in the municipality of Milazzo, and will be carried out through the use of the measures envisaged by the PNRR – Next Generation EU, Mission 7.
The approved proposal is part of an overall project divided into five public-private partnership notices, which will allow the energy requalification of almost all the buildings owned by the IACP to be completed throughout the entire territory of the Metropolitan City of Messina.
Methods of participation and involvement of ESCOs
The public notices envisage the participation of numerous companies specialized in the energy requalification sector (ESCO) in possession of the required requirements, who will be able to take part in a competitive tender by presenting improvement proposals with respect to the energy efficiency standards indicated in the notice, thus raising the overall quality of the interventions.
The new course of the Board of Directors
This is the first official act of the new Board of Directors, chaired by the Honorable Beppe Picciolo, with the vice-president Emilio Fastuca and the councilor Fabiana Bambara. An act that marks the start of a radical change in the management policies of the Institute, oriented towards the redevelopment and relaunch of the existing assets, which have been awaiting ordinary and extraordinary maintenance interventions for too long.
Future objectives: urban regeneration and new housing
The objective of the IACP of Messina is to present itself as a leading body in the regeneration of public heritage, to then also strengthen its role in the construction of new housing, increasing the Institute’s capacity to respond to the housing needs of the population and, in particular, of the most vulnerable groups.
