The role of Architectural Technology for the ecological transition envisaged by the PNRR

Abstract

In the face of the challenges of effectiveness and efficiency of resource expenditure imposed by the Piano Nazionale di Ripresa e Resilienza (PNRR) and by the Next Generation EU (NGEU), the solutions introduced in Italy mainly appear to be of an emergency nature, with the adoption of extraordinary procedures and an overall “containment” of the Public Procurement Code. This essay, recognising the current scenario as an opportunity for structurally redefining methods and processes with particular attention to the dimension of the feasibility and environmental sustainability of the interventions, aims to investigate the possible contributions of the technological area for the innovation of practices and tools in the field of planning-design-construction-management of public works in Italy.
