The rehabilitation work of LANADA has started and is expected to finish in May 2024. The rehabilitation of the research centers is expected to be launched no later than March 2024, allowing time to finalize the tender documents. A clear management model to ensure sustainability of the rehabilitation works after the project will need to be defined by June 2024. 3. The feasibility studies for wholesale markets have been initiated on November after the recruitment of the international consortium RINA\Italmercati\Comete.
