Hearing in the Constitutional Court on the moratorium for wind and photovoltaic. A session – that of today, Tuesday 14 January – where the judges decided not to admit private individuals.

The standoff concerns the appeal filed by the Government against regional law no. 5 of 2024 on the blocking of renewable energy plants for 18 months.

At the Constitutional Court, the State reiterated its request to "reject" the Region's law, maintaining that it is not a regulation based on the statute, but rather a matter of state competence .

For its part, the Todde council states that the measure is to be considered valid because it is in line with the statutory rules.

We are therefore waiting for the Constitutional Court's judgment of legitimacy, with the verdict expected to arrive within 30 days.

In the evening, the comment of the President of the Sardinia Region, Alessandra Todde: «To all those who thought that the Regional Council and Executive were under special administration, today the Constitutional Court responded, meeting to discuss the legitimacy of the transitional provisions on renewable energy, introduced with the regional law of 5 July 2024», she declared.

"It is our right to legislate on urban planning matters: our Statute certifies it and we have strongly defended this position of ours, as well as our commitment to protecting the environment and the landscape. We had guaranteed that we would approve everything within the expected timeframe. We did better by bringing forward the deadline set by the government by three months". Todde concludes: "The Government evidently does not have clear ideas. We do, however: we pursue only the public interest and as long as we are in government of Sardinia we will not allow anyone to threaten, veto or impose conditions on the skin of the Sardinians".
