ground-mount solar

The Italian government has banned solar PV installations on agricultural land in a move that the nation’s solar trade association said would cost Italy €60 billion (US$64.5 billion).

Germany has granted approval to 2.2GW of ground-mounted solar projects in its latest round of auctions, up from 1.6GW in the previous round.

912MWp of solar PV was awarded in the French government’s most recent ground-mounted solar tender, which closed this week.
