Sicily 36MW Photovoltaic Project

planned

VSB Italy has secured approval for a 36MW photovoltaic project in Sicily after obtaining the Regional Single Authorisation Measure. The plant will be located in the Passaneto area in the municipality of Francofonte, covering around 64 hectares, with 46.5 hectares allocated to the solar installation. Construction is expected to begin in 2027, with commissioning planned by the end of 2028. The project is designed to align with national and European decarbonisation objectives and is expected to generate enough electricity to meet the annual needs of around 13,000 households. Environmental measures include maintaining open areas beneath modules, wildlife passage solutions, and vegetative screening using native plant species. The development is also expected to deliver positive employment impacts during construction and operation, contributing to the local economy.
