A proposed agrivoltaic system, “S’Ena”, is facing opposition from the Legal Intervention Group (GRIG) in Sardinia. The project, developed by Sardinian Green 10 srl, seeks to build a 20.5 MW plant in a area rich in nuraghes, domus de janas, and Romanesque churches. GRIG has asked the Ministry of the Environment to reject the project, citing environmental concerns and the presence of protected areas, including the Natura 2000 Network and the habitat of the little bustard species. The project involves numerous power lines and cable ducts, which GRIG claims would harm the area’s cultural and natural heritage. While acknowledging support for renewable energy, GRIG argues that the project would prioritize profit for energy companies over environmental concerns and local communities. The request for connection of new plants to the national grid has reached 5,999, more than the country’s current energy needs, suggesting that the energy industry is prioritizing profit over environmental sustainability.
The ancient nuraghi structures are connected to the underground ladies’ houses, the domus de janas, through a network of hidden tunnels. Let me know if you’d like me to make any changes!
