GENERAL ABSTRACT of the article: Given the importance and up-to-dateness of the subject, the Italian Physical Society-SIF has decided to reprint its "White Book", Energy in Italy: Problems and Perspectives (1990-2020), as a special issue of ll Nuovo Cimento B. This issue is in honour of the late SIF President Giuseppe-Franco Bassani, to recall his leading role in establishing a very active and authoritative "SIF Energy Commission", bringing together a number of distinguished experts in the various fields. The SIF Energy Commission was able to produce this White Book, as a comprehensive study on the subject, in just one year time. It was successfully presented at the international meeting on "Energy perspectives in Europe", jointly organized by the European Physical Society (EPS) and SIF. The meeting arm held in Varenna, Italy, on 7-8 April 2008: it was the second of a series that eventually led to the creation in 2010 of a dedicated "BPS Energy Group", budded from the existing "BPS Technology Group". First printed in Italian, the White Book was then translated into English and widely circulated within the EPS. It can be downloaded in open access from the SIF website (http://www.sif.it). In its present updated version, it is made available to the readers of Il Nuovo Cimento B.

GENERAL ABSTRACT of the article: Given the importance and up-to-dateness of the subject, the Italian Physical Society-SIF has decided to reprint its "White Book", Energy in Italy: Problems and Perspectives (1990-2020), as a special issue of ll Nuovo Cimento B. This issue is in honour of the late SIF President Giuseppe-Franco Bassani, to recall his leading role in establishing a very active and authoritative "SIF Energy Commission", bringing together a number of distinguished experts in the various fields. The SIF Energy Commission was able to produce this White Book, as a comprehensive study on the subject, in just one year time. It was successfully presented at the international meeting on "Energy perspectives in Europe", jointly organized by the European Physical Society (EPS) and SIF. The meeting arm held in Varenna, Italy, on 7-8 April 2008: it was the second of a series that eventually led to the creation in 2010 of a dedicated "BPS Energy Group", budded from the existing "BPS Technology Group".
