VATICAN CITY - Pope Francis has ordered the Vatican to install a solar plant that will provide electricity to the entire city state, as the pontiff does his bit to tackle climate change.
Vatican City is on track to become the 8th country in the world to generate 100% of its electricity from renewable energy, following Pope Francis'' announcement about plans to build a large solar plant.
Italy has agreed to a Vatican plan to turn a 430-hectare (1,000-acre) plot of land north of Rome into a vast solar farm that will generate enough electricity to meet the needs of Vatican City.
The project aims to meet the full energy needs of both the Vatican State and Vatican Radio using solar technology integrated with agricultural activity.

In the heart of the Vatican, we converted 2,134m2 of idle roof space into a source of green renewable energy. The energy produced by this plant is directly fed into the Vatican''s grid, helping to save
Thanks to a unique photovoltaic plant installed on the roof of the Vatican Audience Hall, the Papal State has been producing 300 MWh of solar energy every year since its installation in 2008.
The Vatican is now completely powered by a farm that sports solar panels to help shade-tolerant crops thrive. This new coupling of solar and agriculture is growing fast.
Pope Francis has renewables on his mind as he says he wants Vatican City to run on solar power. To achieve his aim, solar panels will be installed on a Vatican-owned property outside
Located on the edge of Rome, the 424-hectare site houses the transmission facilities for Vatican Radio, thanks to a 1951 agreement between the Holy See and the Italian State.
