Germany’s latest rooftop solar PV and noise barrier auction ended up undersubscribed and awarded only 255MW.

Germany’s latest innovation tender has awarded 488MW of co-located capacity, with all the projects being solar PV tied with energy storage.

The German government is seeking 2.2GW of ground-mounted solar capacity in the most recent round of its public renewable energy tender scheme.

The German Federal Network Agency, the Bundesnetzagentur, has launched the country’s latest rooftop solar PV, seeking 282MW.

Germany’s latest public auction for ground-mounted solar PV capacity ended “significantly oversubscribed”, according to the German electricity regulator, the Bundesnetzagentur.

The German auction for solar installations on buildings and noise barriers once again ended up oversubscribed, this time by 1.2 times.

Germany has now installed more than 100GW of solar PV after adding 1.1GW in January 2025, according to monthly data from the German Federal Network Agency.

Auction prices awarded ranged from €0.0388/kWh to €0.0495/kWh, with an average volume-weighted price awarded at €0.0476/kWh.

The German Federal Network Agency's provisional figures for 2024 include the addition of 16.2GW of new solar capacity.

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.
