I am less enlightened in Pompeii
Then, Friday 26 March 2021 the Archaeological Park of Pompei, between 20:00 and 21:00, will take part in the initiative turning off the fourteen circuits for a few seconds that make up the entire lighting system of the ancient city.
The Archaeological Park of Pompeii has long since adopted a Green policy, by installing led lighting systems inside the excavations, which have allowed save up to 65% of the electric current and which obviously also protect the decorative elements from damage.
In other strategic points of the park they have been installed photovoltaic tiles, which as a result of exposure to solar radiation are able to produce electricity.
Radio Rai2 from 18:00 to 20:00 will follow live all extinguishing initiatives around Italy.
