Opposition Grows Against Proposed Data Center and Power Station in Zibido San Giacomo

Residents in Zibido San Giacomo are mobilizing against proposed infrastructure projects, including a power station of approximately 100,000 square meters intended to support an AWS data center. Concerns have been raised about the impact on agricultural land and local communities, particularly in the Badile area, which may face increased infrastructure development.

Civic group Bene Comune-Zibido has sought clarity from local authorities regarding these developments, emphasizing the need for transparency and community engagement. The opposition highlights risks of land degradation and calls for a review of urban planning policies related to large-scale energy and tech facilities.
