Media: Italy needs two years to stop using Russian gas.

May 7, 2023



(RT) ⸻

Claudio Descalzi, the chief executive of Italy's Eni, believes that Italy will be able to completely end its dependence on Russian gas imports in two years. So far, Rome has managed to partially replace natural gas from Russia with fuel from other suppliers, with 30 million cubic meters out of 40 million cubic meters currently replaced. This is due to Italy's historic ties with African nations such as Egypt, Angola, Algeria, Congo, Mozambique, and Libya, where Eni has continued operating and produces 70% of the gas for the domestic market. Italy relies on imports for nearly 75% of its energy.
