Installed solar PV capacity in Germany is expected to stabilise at 22GW per year from 2026 onwards, according to a report from the German Solar Association (BSW-Solar).
According to BSW solar, questions about the mobilisation of storage and the appropriate assessment of required market premiums and maximum bid values for commercial PV investments were largely left out.
Cabinet deal enshrines solar as top renewable source in a decade's time but PV operators believe ambition falls short of level required by climate change.
Roll-out of about 30,000 PV systems is possible if private players step in to help, says Energy minister of country with almost non-existent solar sector despite 55GW potential.
Millions would back removing cap set to kick in once 47GW-plus industry hits 52GW capacity mark, says association BSW Solar as government mulls next moves.
Iran has published new feed-in-tariffs (FiTs) for solar PV including a new category for solar projects of greater than 30MW in size, according to the renewable energy organisation of Iran (SUNA).
