Fourth Conto Energia: Ministerial Decree of 5 May 2011

In some cases existing buildings or facilities may be linked to the infrastructure investment. By commercializing these assets, government addresses the challenge of disused or underused assets and creates new revenue streams at the same time.

Infrastructure can be considered in a holistic manner, mandating a developer to deliver a larger investment program including commercial, economic, and social assets.

Infrastructure projects can attract additional revenues through retail services, provided in, above, under, or around the infrastructure facility, e.g. convenience stores, shops, banking services and floating or rooftop solar. 

Hotels, restaurants, cafes, catering, and other hospitality and tourism facilities can bring significant revenues for infrastructure. These commercial activities are particularly profitable when located near or associated with locations or facilities that attract crowds.

The space above, below, and around the infrastructure can be used for commercial parking facilities, to earn new revenues and to address congestion.

Housing can be built above or around the infrastructure to generate additional revenues and many infrastructure projects offer space and opportunity for residential property development, and there is often opportunity to include low-cost housing.
