Reporting on 24 July 2026 put capacity at 300-400 MW (upper bound recorded here) and investment near EUR 4bn, with the services conference to open by end-2026, unified authorisation expected during 2027 and a first section operational by end-2028. The Italian government declared the project of pre-eminent strategic national interest and appointed an extraordinary commissioner for permitting.
