Blackridge Research''s Norway Solar Power Market Outlook report provides comprehensive market analysis on the historical development, the current state of solar PV installation scenario, its outlook along with the implications of
Norwegian hydropower is currently so cheap that power companies do not consider it attractive to build solar power plants in Norway. In recent years, however, companies have started selling or leasing solar systems to private customers and businesses in Norway. Despite the low energy prices, solar power is growing rapidly in Norway.
Norway’s Norwegian Directorate of Water Resources and Energy (NVE) gave approval for its first solar power plant on December 5, 2022. Initially permitted on May 5, 2022, the Furuseth solar power plant will serve as a pilot for solar power plants in Norway, providing valuable experience and knowledge about solar power.
Solar PV has an average market value as low as 20 ± 3 €/MWh. Despite low LCOE estimates, solar PV does not look like an attractive option for the future Norwegian power market, given our model assumptions.
The 2040 power price in Norway is modelled to be 39 ± 4 €/MWh. Market value of Norwegian hydropower is 34% higher than the average power price. Seasonal patterns for solar PV give <3% probability of revenues higher than the LCOE. On/offshore wind has a 50%/1% probability of having revenues higher than the LCOE.
Together with wind, solar energy will account for most of the replacement of fossil fuels. Norway is closely linked to the European energy market. Regardless of the growth of solar in Norway, the development in the EU will have consequences for Norwegians.
In 2023, solar PV provided 1% of the electricity into the Finnish grid (Electricity Maps, 2024). Norway, having had plenty of hydropower, only recently began to tap into solar energy. The Norwegian Water Resources and Energy Directorate (NVE, 2024) reported a total installed capacity of around 0.6 GW by the end of 2023.
