The last bastion targeted by the lords of the wind is Capo Caccia . The disfigurement of the blades is ready to attack even the naturalistic oasis of Alghero , a true earthly paradise, pristine and exclusive, protected and unrepeatable.
The Swedes of Avenhexicon , a 50/50 joint venture between a company committed to the development of renewables, Avapa Energy srl, based in Bologna, and the Swedish Hexicon AB, based in the heart of Stockholm, are asking for a stretch of that crystalline water in front of Capo Caccia of 382 square kilometers (38,200 soccer fields in the middle of the sea) to place 54 wind turbines 332 meters high and a marine cable pipeline of about 41 km up to the breakwater of the port of Alghero.
We are talking about an area that has been a protected oasis since 2002 , declared as such to protect the area between Punta Giglio and Capo Caccia. It would be a lethal blow to tourism, navigability and fishing, and even to the Cetacean Sanctuary.
The Swedes will have to deal with other projects of marine devastation in that part of Sardinia. There is the Mistral project by Acciona (32 blades from Bosa to S'Archittu), and there is Alg, by the Germans of BayWa, 34 wind turbines from Bosa to Cabras .
