ENEA is Italy's national research body for new technologies, energy, and sustainable economic development. It was established in 1952 as CNRN and took its current legal form under Law 99/2009, with roughly 2,700 staff across a network of research centers. The agency sits in the public research system rather than in the normal competitive-grants market, and its work is overseen by MIMIT and MASE.
