Unlike the price ceiling for wind, which has not changed compared to 2024, all three auctions involving solar PV have been revised down to take into account the decrease in the forecast levelised cost of electricity, said the Bundesnetzagentur.
Located in the northern department of Atlantic, Enel started construction of two solar PV projects, the Guayepo III and Atlántico, with 200MW and 199.5MW of capacity, respectively.
Approved under the State aid Temporary Crisis and Transition Framework (TCTF), the scheme aims to support the construction of new solar PV, onshore wind, hydropower for a combined 17.65GW of renewable capacity.
Overall, Germany (with 16.1GW added in 2024) continues to be the most important market in the European Union for solar PV, followed by Spain (9.3GW) and Italy (6.4GW).
