Solar Lighting of a Bridge: Centuripe’s Solution to the Darkness Issue

 

At the heart of Sicily, the municipality of Centuripe has ventured on an ambitious initiative to improve its public lighting on a specific section of one of its bridges. This project led under the guidance of Salvatore La Spina, Mayor of Centuripe, and thanks to the technical expertise of the municipal staff, marks a decisive turning point towards sustainable and innovative energy solutions. Accompanied by Pixel Srl, a local partner, the municipality has thus opted for Sunna Design’s innovative solar solutions, intending to provide reliable, easy-to-install, and economical lighting in anticipation of future overall renovation.
