Germany-based RWE secured contracts under Italy’s Resilience and Recovery Plan to construct two advanced Agri-PV plants—Morcone (9.8 MW) and Acquafredda (9.3 MW)—in Benevento, Campania. Spanning over 32,500 elevated solar modules, these projects integrated solar energy with agriculture, optimizing land use and protecting crops from extreme weather. Construction began in early 2025, with commissioning planned by year-end. The design aimed to produce clean energy while enhancing agricultural productivity, with a total capacity of 19.1 MW (AC). Meteorological and agricultural data were monitored to advance Agri-PV technology.
