Final project for the construction of a photovoltaic system called Nettuno and related works to be carried out on state-owned military areas in the Eschieto area in the municipality of Nettuno (Rome)

The project involves the construction of a photovoltaic system with a total power of 40,322MWp, falling within the LAZIO Region, in the Province of Rome, in the territory of Nettuno (Rome). The total cadastral area of the available areas is 982,534 m2, while that actually used for the construction of the system is 550,750 m2. The VDP conducted the following studies:

  • Environmental Impact Study
  • Landscaping Report
  • Environmental Monitoring Plan
  • Incidence Study
  • Sustainability study

STUDY SPECIFICITY

The following environmental components were examined under the SIA: atmosphere, surface and groundwater, geology, land and agri-food heritage, biodiversity, landscape, noise, vibration and public health. During the construction phase, no significant impacts on the Atmosphere component are evident. In fact, from the analyses carried out, which estimated the dust emission during excavation activities for laying the underground cable, an overall PM10 emission figure of 74g/h was found, a value much lower than the limit value for work lasting between 200 and 250 days, equal to 158g/h. Regarding the component “Geology”, the potential impacts in the construction phase, are essentially attributable to the following aspects:

  • Qualitative alteration of soil, caused by the dispersion of pollutants to the soil due to accidental events or incorrect management of the construction site;
  • Temporary loss of soil, relating to the construction site area and construction tracks;
  • Production of aggregates to be disposed of, due to excavations for the installation of the system and the cable duct connecting to the electrical delivery station.

Regarding the potential alteration of surface and underground water bodies, prevention and mitigation actions have been indicated, such as the implementation of a closed system for collecting water from the construction site’s yards.
