The Vatican is betting on renewable energy with a large solar plant to become self-sufficient.

The Vatican has launched a project to build a large agrovoltaic plant, which combines solar energy production with agricultural use of the land. The plant will be located in Santa Maria di Galeria, a property of the Holy See about 40km northwest of Rome. The goal is for the Vatican to cover all its own energy needs. The site has been home to Vatican Radio's transmission facilities for decades.
