shared ownership solar

Tom Kenning investigates the scale of local opposition to solar projects and the measures developers are employing to win back support.

A subsidiary of German developer Soventix has bagged a contract to build one of the largest solar PV projects in Zimbabwe standing at 22MW.

Clean energy firm Holaluz has completed Spain’s first shared self-consumption solar PV and battery storage facility on a house near Barcelona.

Brazil now has 4,955 solar PV systems in the micro and mini-generation category, as of August 2016, marking a five-fold increase in one year.

Bluewave, a Boston-based developer of solar projects, claimed that it has “secured US$100 million” for community solar from a subsidiary of multinational investment house Morgan Stanley.
