150 KW OF ROOFTOP PV PANELS
Solar panels installed on rooftops around the Vatican
The installation of solar panels on Vatican-owned land to the north of the capital follows the photovoltaic glazing of the Cortile delle Corazze and the Vignaccia warehouse of the Vatican Museums (350 kilowatts peak for a total production of 500 megawatt hours) and the 5,000 square metre roof of the Nervi Hall (2,394 modules with a total power of 220 kW, enough to meet the annual needs of 100 households);It avoids the production of 47.5 tonnes of carbon dioxide,' says Vatican Governor Sister Raffaella Petrini.
