Departure from via delle Ninfee and arrival at the Marina delle Nereidi Village: these are the stages of the procession that marched this morning against the construction of the Tyrrhenian Link, Terna's gigantic cable that will connect Sardinia to Sicily to bring the electricity produced by wind farms embedded in the island's soil and by expanses of photovoltaic panels.

And right in the Terra Mala subdivision, in whose waters the 1.9 billion project of the energy giant will land, the 400 demonstrators arrived from all over the island: representatives of all the committees that have been they fight to counteract not renewable energy, but the speculation that it brings with it.

Suffice it to say that, according to Terna data, for the island there are requests for plant connections with an energy capacity seven times higher than the rosiest expectations of the European Union which is aiming for decarbonisation.

«The Tyrrhenian link has become central in the fight against energy speculation», said Rita Corda, of the territorial committee that contests the cable and the exchange station that will be built on 17 hectares in the Selargius countryside, «today we brought together all the committees here regional in character. A success". Gianni Monteduro arrived from Gallura, where citizens are united against the invasion of wind power: «We traveled 300 kilometers», he said, «to make our voice heard. I come from Tempio, which is the symbol of this struggle: there have been requests to build 110 towers. A massacre."

For the Quartu committee there was also the representative Maria Paola Murgia, who attacked the Municipality: «No observations were presented. Blocking the Tyrrhenian Link will not be easy, but at least the landing place has been moved."
