«A negative judgment of environmental compatibility is expressed». Signed: Ministry of the Environment and Ministry of Culture. Therefore, the project for the construction of a wind farm in the area between the municipalities of Nule and Benetutti was rejected, with the involvement also of Buddusò, Osidda and Orune for the construction of infrastructures and cabins. The proposal had been filed by the company Rwe Renewables Italia and envisaged the installation of 11 blades 138 meters high, with an expected investment of 67 million euros.

The no was registered in recent days and notified as part of the environmental impact assessment procedure. Forty-one pages used to highlight a long series of incompatibilities between those towers and the surrounding area.

The president of the evaluation commission, Massimiliano Atelli, underlines the incompleteness and scarcity of the documentation and studies that should have justified the goodness of the works.

For the verification body "the level of treatment of the possible environmental impacts on the factors identified with emphasis on direct and indirect, secondary, cumulative, short, medium and long-term, permanent and temporary effects, does not appear sufficient to exclude negative effects" .

Furthermore, "the impacts on the environment deriving from the accumulation with other existing or approved projects of energy production plants from renewable sources present in the area are not adequately assessed". Project documentation and non-technical synthesis are even branded as «bordering on neglect».

There were many opposing positions. Among many, that of the Region: the blades designed, according to the Sardinian offices, contrasted with the silence necessary to get the go-ahead for the Einstein telescope project in the Sos Enattos mine, in Lula. Which is worth an investment of six billion.
