Parco Solare Alpino Duragno
Parco Solare Alpino Duragno solar overview.
Duragno is a proposed alpine solar installation on the southern slopes below the Manèra on Monte Tamaro, in Mezzovico-Vira. Designed to increase winter electricity production, the scheme combines elevated bifacial panels with landscape and environmental mitigation measures. AIL is a development partner, with a planned connection to its network at Rivera.DevelopmentSwitzerland

| Organisation | Role | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Project coordination, geology and civil engineeringEngineering And Design | AFRY’s project reference describes overall coordination, geological work and design of the supporting structures, screw foundations, access and construction logistics for Duragno. | |
| Solar project development partnerProject Development | AIL’s 2024 integrated report identifies the utility as a development partner in Duragno. It also describes the planned connection to its medium-voltage network at Rivera. | |
| Early feasibility assessmentEngineering And Technical | The municipal submission identifies Basler & Hofmann and SUPSI as contributors to the preliminary feasibility assessment completed in spring 2023. | |
| Municipal consent under Article 71aConsenting And Regulatory Context | The municipality’s history records the council’s June 2024 consent to the Duragno proposal. Municipal consent is one step in the separate building-permit process. | |
| Consortium partner identified in July 2024Development And Finance | LAND’s July 2024 project account identifies EBL among the partners in the planned consortium for Duragno’s financial development. | |
| Environmental impact assessmentConsenting Environmental | ECOCONTROL prepared the environmental impact study alongside LAND’s landscape integration work for the Duragno proposal. | |
| Electrical design for the solar proposalEngineering And Design | IFEC designed the solar park’s electrical system, connections, panel positioning and technical building. The company merged into AFRY Schweiz AG in June 2025. | |
| Landscape integration and mitigation designEngineering And Design | LAND Suisse prepared landscape integration, mitigation and compensation proposals for the planned solar installation on Monte Tamaro. | |
| Solar-site landownerDevelopment Context | The municipal submission identifies the Patriziato as owner of the proposed solar site. Its land and surface-right arrangements are distinct from ownership of the planned generating equipment. | |
| Seismic and geophysical site investigationSurvey Inspection | Poseidon Engineering reports seismic investigation for the Duragno site, commissioned by S’ROK in collaboration with AFRY. The investigation was completed between December 2023 and January 2024. | |
| Original project promoterProject Development | S’ROK initiated the Duragno proposal and commissioned engineering work for its planning and environmental submissions. | |
| Photovoltaic feasibility contributionResearch And Monitoring | SUPSI’s photovoltaic competence centre contributed to the Duragno feasibility study described in the May 2024 municipal submission. |
