Vatican's €100M Agrivoltaic Plant Signals New Era of Institutional Renewable Investment

The Vatican will build a €100 million agrivoltaic plant capable of generating 80-90 megawatts of renewable energy, potentially making the Holy See fully energy self-sufficient within two years. The system combines solar panels mounted above farmland, allowing crops to grow beneath while reducing water evaporation. This makes it one of Italy's largest such installations and signals that even the world's smallest sovereign state is going all-in on clean energy.
