Germany’s solar capacity stagnates: April sees only 838.5 MW of new installations

With just 838.5 MW of new solar capacity installed in April 2025, Germany’s photovoltaic market remains stagnant. While rooftop solar demand continues to weaken, plug-in solar devices are gaining momentum, according to the Federal Network Agency (Bundesnetzagentur). To remain on track toward its 2030 goals, the country would need to add an average of at least 1.5 GW per month, a figure that last month results fell far short of.

Italy in numbers: Only 43% of renewable capacity reviewed in April and May approved; agrivoltaics takes the lead

Between April and May 2025, the Italian Ministry of Environment and Energy Security (MASE) assessed 43 renewable energy projects. Although more than 2,900 MW of capacity was reviewed, only 1,257.87 MW received a positive environmental evaluation, while 1,660.19 MW were rejected. Agrivoltaics dominated the proposals, with Sassari emerging as the most active location.
