“Tuscania” is located in the Lazio region and, with its 150-megawatt capacity, is one of the largest solar parks in Italy. Electricity production is scheduled to start in the second half of 2024, following completion of the construction phase. The solar park will produce approximately 240 gigawatt hours of electricity per year and thus avoid more than 100,000 tonnes of CO₂ emissions annually.

KGAL has been active in the Italian renewable energy market since 2010. Its portfolio includes more than 30 solar parks and hydropower plants. Further solar parks and wind farms, with a total capacity of more than 500 MW, are in the planning phase or under construction. “Italy is one of the most important markets in our European renewable energy portfolio. The country scores highly due to its strong solar radiation, wind conditions, and the political will to drive the expansion of renewable energies,” says Katrin Werner, Head of Project Implementation Sustainable Infrastructure at KGAL. “Much of the electricity produced by our ‘Tuscania’ plant will go to our contractual partner Edison at a fixed price over a 10-year period. For KGAL ESPF 4 investors, the PPA represents an attractive, long-term source of income. In addition, we are pleased to support Edison, as one of Italy’s leading electricity suppliers, in its ambitious decarbonisation plans.”
