Auctions in Italy: Is the lack of differentiation holding back agrivoltaics’ potential?

Francesco Marghella, an analyst, warns that auctions under the FER X schemes do not differentiate agrivoltaics from photovoltaics, which could limit its initial deployment. Moreover, current financial models ignore its agronomic value, a key factor for profitability. With the goal of reaching 7 GW by 2030, can Italy overcome these obstacles and unlock the potential of this technology?

More than 32 GW of renewables in Poland, but market stability remains in question

With 21,618 MW of photovoltaic capacity and 10,852 MW of wind farms as of early 2025, Poland continues to expand its renewable energy sector. However, the growing share of these sources in the electricity system raises challenges for market stability, including price fluctuations, grid congestion risks, and the need for better storage and demand management mechanisms.
