Providing energy for Vatican City State. The agrivoltaic plant will make use of the Holy See''s property at Santa Maria di Galeria. Located on the edge of Rome, the 424-hectare site houses the transmission facilities for Vatican Radio, thanks to a 1951 agreement between the Holy See and the Italian State.
Pope Francis has announced plans for the Vatican City to go solar through his latest motu proprio, Fratello Sole, or Brother Sun. The pope has delegated Vatican governing bodies to work with the Italian government to build an agrivoltaics system in the lands of Santa Maria di Galeria, located outside of Rome and an extra-territory of Vatican City.
The Pope has given full authority to two special Commissioners to supervise the plant’s construction, ensuring that the project is carried out efficiently and effectively. The energy generated by this solar plant will cover all the Vatican’s energy needs, eliminating dependence on non-renewable energy sources.
The plant will be located in Santa Maria di Galeria, some 11 kilometers from Rome, where Vatican Radio’s broadcasting station is located. Not only will this project generate renewable electricity, but it will also be integrated with the land’s agricultural needs, combining modern technology with sustainable practices.
The implementation of a solar plant not only improves the Vatican’s environmental sustainability, but also offers economic and social benefits. By generating its own energy, the Vatican can save on light. This is especially relevant in a context where the price of light is a constant worry for many.
