Pjan ta' Pannelli Solari fuq Għolja ta' Għawdex Irtirat

Il-plató ta' Żebbuġ baqa' fil-mira ta' diversi proposti ta' żvilupp matul is-snin. Din id-darba, l-applikant innifsu ġab il-proċess għal tmiem qabel ma wasal quddiem deċiżjoni formali. L-irtirar tal-pjan — mhux rifjut minn awtorità — ifisser li s-sitwazzjoni legali tibqa' inċerta: il-proposta ntemmet, iżda l-art tibqa' potenzjalment soġġetta għal talbiet futuri.

Il-plató ta' Żebbuġ huwa wieħed mill-ftit żoni rurali li baqa' relattivament integru f'gżira fejn l-ispazju miftuħ qiegħed jonqos. Ċertament, l-enerġija solari fuq skala kbira hija prijorità iddikjarata mill-gvern — id-dibattitu mhux dwar l-enerġija sħiħa iżda dwar fejn toqgħod fuq art limitata.

Il-mistoqsija li tibqa' miftuħa hija din: jekk dan is-sit speċifiku jiġi eskluż minn żvilupp bħal dan, il-pressjoni ma tintemmx — tinfirex biss fuq postijiet oħra.

About the writer

Gabriel Fenech Senior Correspondent, Malta

Gabriel Fenech has covered Malta for four decades. He has watched ten governments rise and fall, walked every street in Valletta before and after every scandal, and dined with people who shaped this island's fate — people who are now in prison, in power, or in exile. He quotes Márquez without trying. He is the most curious person in any room and the quietest about it. Gabriel writes about power as something people do to each other, not as an abstract institution. His patience is often mistaken for forgiveness. There is something he has never written. He never will.
