Energy and rural landscape, a renewable source with a "mitigable" impact: the case of biogas in zootecnics

Baldari, M; Bognanno, Matteo; Biondo, N; Zappia, P.; DI GREGORIO, Donatella Maria

The study investigates the economic viability of installing a biogas plant at a studied enterprise, on the basis of data obtained from leading zootechnical enterprises in Calabria that have introduced such innovations. The evaluations were carried out using the methodology of cost-benefit analysis, calculating the net present value (NPV) and the internal rate of return (IRR) relative to the installation and operation of a biogas plant appropriately sized for the structural and productive parameters of the enterprise studied.
