To avoid competition with China, Pakistan could build 100-150W panels for farming and off-grid uses, says the Pakistan Solar Association.

The money raised will support the development of the company’s C&I portfolio of more than 200 projects across the US.

Germany's rooftop solar tender ended up with a record 434MW of capacity bid, while France's was undersubscribed.

The Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) has said that the National Electricity Market (NEM) must introduce a new ‘emergency backstop’ mechanism to manage the impact rooftop solar PV can have on grid stability.

The Australian government has commenced a review of the National Electricity Market (NEM) to identify how it will operate in the coming decades and facilitate the uptake of solar PV.

The Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) has provided AU$1.7 million in funding to explore the integration of consumer energy resources (CERs) into the NEM.

The Australian Energy Market Commission (AEMC) has progressed a consumer-focused pricing review that was brought forward due to increasing household rooftop solar PV installation rates.

The City of Newcastle Council in Australia is seeking expressions of interest (EOI) from service providers to deliver a ‘bulk buy’ community renewable energy programme for homeowners, landlords and small businesses.
