Abstract—This paper analyzes the evolution of land use in Italy according to “landscape quality aims” in order to provide useful tools for spatial planning choices. It’s focused on the energy infrastructures (systems for wind power and ground–mounted photovoltaic plants) that have the most impact on land in rural marginal areas. The case study is the Region of Molise, in Southern Italy, which is emblematic case because it has a significant number of installations as seen in relationship with the whole national territory. The study proposes a methodology to support Local authorities especially in relation to the definition of landscape quality aims, that the new Regional Landscape Plan must provide.
