โNot in my backyardโ is the rallying cry of citizens everywhere resisting projects proposed for their locality. Whether itโs affordable housing, a waste treatment plant, or a new data center, they may recognize the benefit of the activity. They just donโt want it near them. And the roots of that resistance differ from place to place. When it comes to the ongoing transition from fossil fuels to renewables, companies and policymakers need to know where, exactly, people are coming from. The Italian island of Sardinia is a textbook example. As IEEE Spectrumโs power and energy editor Emily Waltz discovered when she traveled there last October, Sardinian opposition to wind and solar projects runs deep. It spurred a quarter of the voting population to queue up in public squares in 2024 to sign a petition banning all construction of renewable energy. Waltz was surprised. She went there to see a promising new grid-scale energy storage system that uses domes inflated with carbon dioxide. While reporting on that project, she interviewed residents, engineers, activists, and professors about their attitudes toward climate change and the Italian governmentโs grand plans for renewable energy on the island. And Waltz soon learned of Sardiniansโ profound antipathy toward renewable energy and its deep ties to a history of invasion, occupation, and exploitation stretching back 2,700 years. It started with the Phoenicians and then extended through the Romans, the Byzantines, and the Iberians. Sardinia was absorbed into a newly unified Italy in 1861, and it became an autonomous region of Italy in 1948. The islandโs population is justifiably suspicious of outsiders, including the Italian government. โWhen youโre in Sardinia, the weight of historyโyou can feel it like in the air,โ Waltz told me. โAnd it gets passed down from one generation to the next.โ Now, Italy needs Sardinia to produce even more power to meet the countryโs climate goalsโsomething that Sardinians see as Romeโs problem, not theirs. โSardinia already exports about 30 percent of its electricity. Itโs not like they need more,โ Waltz says. โSo itโs hard to make the case to build, build, build.โ The result of Waltzโs old-fashioned shoe leather reporting is this monthโs cover story. She notes that the Sardinians she talked to arenโt climate-change deniers, and they donโt object to renewables per se. They just donโt like the way corporations and Italian policymakers are trying to plug into Sardinia like itโs one giant battery rather than the home of an ancient and proud people. โI think Sardinians would be more receptive to renewable projects if it was more of a ground-up, grassroots approach,โ Waltz says. Indeed, this homegrown approach is already working in some places in Sardinia. She knows of more than 50 projects, called energy communities, where the residents are deploying renewables themselves. The idea also holds promise for other places struggling to get locals to buy into the renewable-energy transition. The Sardinian experience is both a cautionary tale and a blueprint. Ignore the weight of history that communities carry and your project risks failure. Meet the people where they are and you might just get somewhere. The same lesson applies whether youโre in Sulawesi or sub-Saharan Africa. You just have to show up to learn it.
