Get involved in the Italian solar market by attending the debut edition of Solar & Storage Italia – taking place 8-9 October. Italy’s solar market has grown from 4,000 MW in 2005 to over 26 GW in 2023, driven by strong policies and cutting-edge technologies.
Italy is the second country, after Germany, in terms of installed photovoltaic power with approximately 22 GW of cumulative power at the end of 2022. According to Solar Power Europe in its EU Market Outlook for Solar Power 2021-2025 it predicts that by the end of 2025 there may be another 7.1 GW of new power.
Consultancy Clean Horizon contacted Energy-Storage.news to offer its take and breakdown of the results. Head analyst Corentin Baschet said the weighted average price was €29,500 (US$35,814) / MW / year across the three tranches of awards and most of the awarded projects are expected to be batteries.
Since 2010, the number of photovoltaic systems in Italy has recorded a 10-fold increase, reaching almost 1.6 million units in 2023. That year, Lombardy and Veneto were the regions contributing the most to this sector’s growth. Together, they accounted for over 30 percent of the PV installed capacity in the country.
