According to Italy’s solar association, last year saw a divergence in the fortunes of the utility-scale and residential solar sectors.

The Italian solar sector installed over 1.7GW of solar PV capacity in Q1 2024, marking a significant increase compared with the same period in 2023.

The Italian government has banned solar PV installations on agricultural land in a move that the nation’s solar trade association said would cost Italy €60 billion (US$64.5 billion).

PV Data looks at the Italian market in 2023 and how it is expected to reach 4GW of installed solar capacity, as well as agriPV's interest.

Italy has installed more than 2.3GW of solar PV in the first half of 2023, according to the latest figures from industry association Italia Solare.

Italy is on track to have its best year for solar PV deployment in a decade as installs jumped during H1 2022, according to new figures from industry association Italia Solare.

Italy must accelerate the authorisation of new solar projects to reduce the country’s reliance on imports of Russian gas, the president of industry trade association Italia Solare has said.

New measures from Italy’s government to accelerate and simplify renewables deployment have been largely criticised by the country’s solar industry.

More than half of Italy’s installed solar capacity is subject to a new law that requires plant owners to pay the country’s government an increase in profits resulting from high electricity prices, according to a board member of trade body Italia Solare.

A new policy in Italy that claws back the profits of solar PV projects will undermine investor confidence and jeopardise the European Union’s clean energy transition, a group of trade associations, including SolarPower Europe, has warned.
