A court in Italy has partially cancelled the suitable areas decree (aree idonee in Italian) for ground-mounted renewables, while questioning the legality of the agricultural decree law.
Scientists at Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems (ISE) and weather protection provider VOEN have developed lightweight modules for agrivoltaics (agriPV) applications.
Held by Italy’s energy management agency Gestore dei Servizi Energetici (GSE), the tender will allocate €323 million (US$349 million) to fund agriPV projects.
