The Federal Network Agency allocated 1,952 MW of PV capacity in the nation's first tender for utility-scale solar this year.2

This allocation is part of Germany's ongoing efforts to expand its solar energy infrastructure. The tender process is a competitive bidding system designed to encourage the development of solar power projects by offering a fixed amount of capacity to the lowest bidders. The 1,952 MW of PV capacity allocated in the first tender for utility-scale solar represents a significant step forward in Germany's renewable energy goals. It is also worth noting that the Federal Network Agency has initiated other initiatives, such as a new rooftop solar tender seeking 258MW of PV capacity3 and a special two-stage award procedure4, to further promote solar energy adoption across different scales and sectors.
