The Photovoltaic Farms map is based on data extracted up to July 2025 from projects published on the MASE portal, including the so‑called agrivoltaic farms in newspeak terminology.

Up to 40% of the LAOR — Land Area Occupation Ratio (another term from the newspeak vocabulary) — can be used for solar panels, while the remaining portion includes transit zones and empty spaces between the modules.

The agrivoltaic concept is based on the assumption that installing solar panels on agricultural land should be more acceptable than using dedicated land. But if agricultural land is scarce, why should farmers waste that precious resource for something outside their core business? Conversely, if there is plenty of land available, why should they accept working with tractors in tight paths between rows of panels instead of operating freely in open fields?

These installations can only exist because of regulations and incentives that make it more convenient to abandon agriculture and rent land to "green" companies for a fixed income.

At the moment, this map is still incomplete. It currently includes projects from the Oristano area and part of the Cagliari area. Specifications and dimensions have not yet been loaded.
