The Italian energy agency, GSE, has issued a statement declaring the first register for PV systems greater than 12kW closed on September 18. Italy’s Conto Energia V, which began August 27, will be operating with a budget of less than €530 million. In addition, once the €6.70 billion cap is reached, Italy will not offer any further incentives for PV installations.

A monthly report from Italian grid operator Terna SpA revealed that electricity generated from PV during that month grew by 49.2%, from 1,501GWh in August 2011 to 2,240GWh in August 2012.

The selected plants will be published on the GSE website within 20 days.

  • Photovoltaics International 19th Edition

    For manufacturers who had their heads in the bunker during 2012, fighting falling ASPs and eroding margins, the nineteenth edition brings you details of what lies in store for this coming year. Wright Williams & Kelly return in this issue with their popular analysis of payback on technology buys; crucially they analyze n-type wafers, Al2O3 passivation and copper metallization. SERIS shows us how to achieve 18.7% efficiencies using low-cost etching techniques on diffused wafers. We also have two important technology roundups: CIGS from Helmholtz Berlin, and PV module encapsulation techniques from Fraunhofer ISE.

  • Manufacturing The Solar Future: The 2013 Production Annual

    In the ever-changing global solar markets, cost reduction and measures to increase cell efficiencies are the key tools available to PV manufacturers to create new opportunities and drive your business to the next level. Manufacturing the Solar Future 2013 is the third in the Photovoltaics International PV Production Annual series, delivering the next instalment of in-depth technical manufacturing information on PV production processes designed to help you gain the competitive edge.
