Ramacca Solar Farm (Ramacca) is a 68MW solar photovoltaic (PV) project located in Sicily (Italy). Originally developed by European Energy, a Denmark-based independent power producer with a strong renewable energy track record, it was acquired by Sosteneo on behalf of clients in September 2023. Construction began in October 2025.
The project’s design includes two key elements of vegetation and landscaping. Firstly, within the PV plant, 1.9 hectares of grass will be planted below the solar panels and up to the plant’s perimeter fence. Outside the boundary of the PV plant, 12 hectares of Mediterranean scrub and tree species will be planted in accordance with local guidelines and regulations as per the “Autorizzazione Unica” documentation. The Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) contractor will supply the flora species for both the areas. Sosteneo will be responsible for the plantation and vegetation maintenance through a contract with a local agronomist.
Ramacca has also completed social safeguard screening in accordance with the EU Taxonomy. All major project suppliers and counterparties were analysed to ensure that the project meets robust social and ethical standards.
A concession agreement with the Municipality has been signed, defining a number of investments for the local communities to be financed by Ramacca’s special purpose vehicle.
