Vatican: Pioneer in “Energy Transition” | FSSPX News
On December 20, 2024, the Vatican inaugurated a photovoltaic glass roof at the Cortile delle Corazze in the Vatican Museums. The project has created a roof that provides thermal
These new photovoltaic installations build on the foundation laid over fifteen years ago when 2,500 solar panels were installed on the Paul VI Audience Hall, making it one of the largest solar-powered buildings in Rome. In addition to harnessing solar power, the Vatican is also making strides in promoting electric mobility.
The Vatican's commitment to green energy is further exemplified by its partnership with the utility company Acea, which now supplies the state with electricity exclusively from renewable sources. This shift ensures that all the energy consumed within the Vatican's walls is entirely green, setting a powerful example for the global community.
This project was carried out by ACEA, an Italian utility company, which installed systems to meet all of the Vatican's energy demands. What makes this significant is not the size, but that Vatican City is only 0.49km², and there was no loud campaign, no press tour, just action set in stone and implemented.
