Agriculture, energy, and landscape:
the territory as a laboratory for innovation
INSULÆ at the Terrasini Agrivoltaic Convivium
On November 7, INSULÆ took part in the Terrasini Agrivoltaic Convivium, a day dedicated to dialogue between the agricultural world, energy technologies, and territorial development.
The meeting brought together institutions, businesses, researchers, and professionals with the aim of sharing concrete experiences and visions for the future of sustainable agriculture.
Agrivoltaics: Not Just Energy, But Territorial Regeneration
In his speech, Architect Mariano Genovese — INSULÆ Administrator — outlined a clear vision: architecture and landscape are not just spaces to be designed, but tools for regeneration.
For INSULÆ, an agrivoltaic system is more than just energy infrastructure: it is an opportunity to redesign the relationship between community, agricultural productivity, and the environment. The goal is not just to produce energy or cultivate land, but to reactivate places, generating social value and new jobs.
What does it mean to build an authentic landscape?
For this reason, the agrivoltaic model that INSULÆ promotes is based on four pillars: quality, integrated, and productive agriculture; sustainable energy, without using land for cultivation; training and technology transfer; research and innovation, serving agricultural businesses.
These elements allow a photovoltaic field to be transformed into a productive agricultural ecosystem, with concrete benefits:
Soil and landscape protection Local supply chains and typical products New skills and employment opportunities Fighting the marginalization of inland areas Clean and shared energy Terrasini: an open-air laboratory The experience conducted by LAND
– Impresa Agricola Sociale S.r.l. and iGreen System is today one of the most advanced models in the country: here, among the olive groves and citrus trees, crops, agriculture 4.0 technologies, agrivoltaic systems, and social inclusion are being tested.
Terrasini demonstrates that agriculture doesn’t have to be hindered by systems: it can coexist, grow, and improve thanks to them.
INSULÆ supports this journey with transversal expertise: architectural and landscape design, integrated process management, safety, permitting, monitoring, and communication.
A network of stakeholders that makes a difference. Special thanks go to: LAND Impresa Agricola Sociale S.r.l. iGreen System AIAS
– Italian Sustainable Agrivoltaic Association CESIE ETS. Collaboration between businesses, research institutions, and associations is the true key to a local ecological transition: innovations that arise in the fields and restore value to the communities that live there.
The future: landscapes that produce, protect, and shape Terrasini can become a national benchmark: a place where agriculture, energy, and education coexist, generating a new model of productive landscape, capable of combining identity, culture, and sustainability. INSULÆ will continue to support this journey with projects, research, and vision, placing a simple and ancient truth at its core: territories regenerate when they are once again inhabited, cultivated, and imagined by those who live there every day.
