Europe

A study from consultancy LCP Delta has underlined the importance of flexibility to Europe’s energy transition as the dominance of renewable energy generation grows.  

France has revised down its solar PV target by 2035 from 100GW to 90GW in its latest Multiannual Energy Programme (PPE3).

Under the “multi-year” corporate PPA, Prysmian will purchase power from a 150MWp solar PV plant in the Viterbo province in central Italy.

The construction of the Lidsø solar park started in the summer of 2024 and it is expected to be commissioned this summer.

Consisting of three utility-scale projects – 105MWp, 73MWp and 26MWp, respectively – the projects are expected to be completed in 2026.

CIP said it expected the CI V fund to add up to 30GW of renewable energy generation and storage assets to global energy grids.

Reducing silver consumption remains one of the key trends in the solar industry, such as going busbar-less, highlights the ITRPV.

Many of the mechanisms used to manage the finances of the solar sector have not kept pace with the rate of capacity additions.

The capacity is spread across three commissioned projects: the 40MWp Greenberry, 40MW Fontenet 3 and the 47MW Amance projects.

Fraunhofer ISE research suggests that the average monocrystalline silicon PV module’s power output was 1.2% lower than its nominal capacity.
