Discover Austria’s move to waive value added tax (VAT) on solar PV system purchases from 2024, aimed at simplifying processes and fostering solar expansion. Explore the implications of this decision, along with the industry’s response and demands for a robust regulatory framework and improved grid infrastructure. Learn about Austria’s commitment to promoting sustainable energy and how this aligns with broader European Union initiatives to incentivize environmentally beneficial products and services.

If demand picks up again toward the end of the year due to the current price situation, the downward trend for PV module prices could be stopped, according to pvXchange’s Martin Schachinger.

Amphenol Industrial Operations (AIO), a technology company headquartered in Connecticut, is set to establish a new manufacturing facility in Arizona by the end of 2023, focusing on solar junction boxes and connectors. This move follows the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). The facility, spanning 58,000 sq. ft. in Mesa, will also produce advanced interconnect assemblies, equipped with state-of-the-art machinery and robotic technologies. AIO, listed as APH on the NYSE, serves as a key supplier to Heliene, contributing to the US solar PV modules. The new Arizona facility will bolster the domestic solar supply chain, complementing the region’s other significant solar manufacturing projects.

Pháp đang đẩy nhanh mục tiêu phát triển năng lượng mặt trời, đặt mục tiêu đạt 60 GW vào năm 2030 và 100 GW vào năm 2035, đồng thời khẳng định lại vai trò của năng lượng hạt nhân trong kế hoạch năng lượng của nước này.

Created by scientists in Poland, the model is based on GIS and can be adapted to different market conditions. The researchers applied it to the Polish market and found that 3.61% of the country’s available land can host utility-scale PV systems.

Germany’s solar PV installations in September 2023 slightly decreased by over 21% to 919 MW, while the cumulative installations for the initial nine months exceeded 10 GW, surpassing the annual target of 9 GW. The adjusted August installations rose to 1.17 GW. Although September additions fell below 1 GW, the country’s total installed solar PV capacity reached over 77.67 GW. Rooftop solar systems supported under the EEG decreased to 666 MW, and large-scale solar capacity stood at 113.5 MW. Despite being below the monthly target, continued installations could see Germany ending 2023 with over 13 GW annual installed capacity, an 80% growth from 2022’s 7.2 GW.
