How can Germany improve the solar market?

In addition, further measures will be needed to strengthen the German PV market, such as raising the tender limit for rooftop PV systems, expanding the tax-free self-consumption of solar power, removing bureaucratic barriers, and establishing long-term planning security for system operators.

What is the future of solar power in Germany?

Sustained growth is forecasted in the market for new PV capacity for years to come. Concurrently, battery systems are expected to reach a capacity of at least 100 GWh by 2030, reflecting a transformative shift within the German energy system towards renewable energy integration.

What data is gathered in the German PV price monitoring?

The data stems from interviews with solar installation companies and an evaluation of offers made to end consumers on online portals. The following data is gathered in the German PV Price Monitoring: Split of turn key costs of < 30 kWp rooftop systems in different cost components.
