France has launched its solar working group and announced the winners of its fourth rooftop solar tender, awarding 200MW of capacity.

France has awarded 73MW of solar ‘innovation’ capacity promoting floating solar, new forecasting software and solar greenhouses, as well as divvying out another 508MW in its large-scale PV programme.

Having successfully launched a working group on onshore wind, the French government plans to create a similar group covering solar.
