build a photovoltaic installation
impianto is normally installation, see e.g.

http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Notice.do?mode=dbl&lang=en&ihmlang=...
There is a potential ambiguity in the phrase as it's not clear whether it relates to the construction of the installation (for subsequent assembly on site) or the actual assembly on site.
