The protest continues in Selargius around the "Sa Barracca e su Pardu" area where Terna would like to build a conversion station and a switching station included in the Tyrrhenian Link project for a high voltage submarine connection with Sicily.
And after the new meeting on Sunday 4th, the No Tyrrhenian Link committee continues the battle to defend the lands, in the name of the motto "Su Sattu depid abarrai sattu".
«Last 21 September 2023 – explains Rita Corda, spokesperson of the Committee – the Selargino municipal council, after our thousand battles, approved an agenda which asked the mayor to review the agreements with Terna. However, the discussions continued and a new agenda was therefore necessary on 5 December, through which the mayor was asked to verify an appeal to the Head of State against the plant. An act that now reopens the game, after the deafening silences of all these years, including on the part of the Region."

Furthermore, from specific studies carried out, there would be an important archaeological site underground that would risk disappearing."
He adds: «The lands are suitable for agriculture and several families derive income from it for their livelihood. We are not against clean energy, but rather against measures imposed from above without involving citizens, which bring zero benefits to the territory, if not speculation."
