Abstract: This paper provides evidence that green activities could be positively correlated in a specific region only if related green culture and capabilities exist, where ad hoc policy measures are required in order to enhance the regional abilities in supporting the acceleration of ongoing green transition. The European Recovery Programs align public policies with international commitments to environmental sustainability, directing investments toward sectors, and technologies, that accelerate the ecological transition, and enhance resilience to future climate shock changes. Through the Benchmarking Metering Deployment (2020), the paper investigates smart meters’ diffusion and the green effects they generate. The spatial unit of investigation is the eu-27, and it offers the opportunity to verify the effectiveness of smart meters as a powerful tool for sustainable policies. The results show the fundamental role of these smart infrastructures, both for the electricity sector and the digital and sustainable transition process of the European countries.
