Beskrivelse
Summary:This article investigates how the current energy transition is driving a radical reconfiguration of the Port of Ravenna. Once a powerhouse of gas extraction and processing in the Adriatic Sea, this site is set to become the largest sustainability hub in the Mediterranean. This green transformation has however major implications for its surroundings and environment. The result will be a novel ecosystem which fuses land and sea into a landscape for energy production and exploitation. However, the controversies this process sparks call for a reflection on the expertise required to engage with large-scale spatial transformations brought about by the energy transition, as well as alternative approaches to the current debate on energy and infrastructure landscapes.
