Public lighting management issues in Modena

Overview

In the Modena region, issues regarding public lighting management have transitioned from political scrutiny to technical investigations.

Initially, political representatives in Modena demanded clarity over the management of public lighting services. Concerns were raised regarding alleged budgetary damage stemming from long-standing contract assignments and extensions granted to Hera Luce. Officials, including Michele Barcaiuolo of Fratelli d’Italia, called for investigations into administrative responsibility, noting that the ‘Legge Foti’ does not serve as a ‘general safe conduct’ to absolve politicians of their decisions.

Subsequently, the municipal administration of Fiorano Modenese launched a technical investigation following a surge in resident reports of network malfunctions. Between July and August, the municipality received 44 reports of failures. While repairs have been attempted, officials noted that malfunctions frequently recur. The administration is currently conducting inspections to monitor repair effectiveness and evaluating solutions to prevent tampering with electrical panels.
