Jonathan Touriño Jacobo looks at Southern Europe, where pricing, grid capacity and the ban of PV on farmland are causing headaches.

NZGIF has provided a NZ$78 million (US$48.7 million) financing facility to FNSF to help complete around 1.1GW of new solar projects.

Several Chinese provinces have suspended the approval of new distributed PV projects amid concerns over available grid capacity.

AEMO has published two engineering roadmaps that highlight successes in supporting 'the continuous increase of renewables in the energy mix'.

Distributed solar PV, and hybrid PV, systems can play a key role in providing grid balancing mechanisms, according to the IEA.

Grid infrastructure has emerged as a key stumbling block in Europe’s transition to a cleaner energy system, says Chris Rosslowe of Ember.

The Queensland government in Australia has confirmed that it has broken ground on its AUS$5 billion (US$3.3 billion) CopperString transmission project.

The world will add 3.8TWac of new solar capacity by 2033, alongside 1.6TW of new wind capacity, according to Wood Mackenzie.

A collective effort will be required to realise the potential of the solar PV industry, according to Sonia Dunlop of the Global Solar Council.

Grid bottlenecks have emerged as a significant obstacle standing in the way of the energy transition in the US.
