Italy’s First FER-X Auction Attracts 10GW of Bids, Second Round Prioritizes EU Manufacturing

The Italian energy management agency Gestore dei Servizi Energetici (GSE) has recently announced the completion of the first round of the “FER-X Transitorio” renewable energy auction, attracting 818 solar power plant projects with a total capacity of 10.09GW, far exceeding the government’s maximum allocation cap of 8GW. Final rankings and awarded projects will be released on December 11.

The Ministry of Environment and Energy Security (MASE) has meanwhile updated the FER-X decree and launched the second auction round on September 16, with a planned allocation ranging from 200MW to 1.6GW. Within the updates, a new Article 5-bis was introduced, establishing a dedicated tender channel for solar plants above 1MW, capped at 20% of the maximum quota. Projects bidding under this channel must use non-Chinese manufactured batteries, modules, inverters, and at least one other key component (such as trackers or PV glass) must also be sourced outside of China.

According to the latest figures from trade association Italia Solare, in the first seven months of 2025, Italy added 3.35GW of new capacity and 132,276 new PV systems, bringing its cumulative solar capacity to over 40GW. Between 2023 and 2024, following the phase-out of the “Superbonus” incentive program for residential solar, household installations slowed with a 20.78% year-on-year decline, while large-scale ground-mounted projects surged 163.14% year-on-year, reflecting a clear market shift towards utility-scale deployment.

The introduction of this “non-price criterion” essentially represents Italy’s response to the EU’s Net Zero Industry Act (NZIA), which requires that by 2030, at least 40% of strategic net-zero technologies (including PV) be manufactured within the EU, while reducing reliance on a single-region supply chain. As one of the EU’s largest economies, Italy is using auction rules to steer projects towards “non-Chinese” components—supporting domestic and EU-based solar manufacturing while also strengthening energy supply chain security and resilience.

For Chinese PV companies, this policy significantly raises market entry thresholds. Without localized manufacturing within the EU, they risk losing access to Italy’s dedicated auction market. Conversely, for EU solar manufacturers, the policy acts as a form of targeted support, potentially accelerating capacity expansion and technological innovation. However, they will need to balance the higher costs of non-Chinese components against the benefits of easier subsidy access under the new framework.

Australia Expands Its CIS Capacity by 25%, Targeting 82% Share by 2030

Last month on July 29, Australian Minister for Climate Change and Energy, Chris Bowen, announced a significant expansion of the Capacity Investment Scheme (CIS) at the annual Investors Group on Climate Change (IGCC) summit. To achieve the Australia's ambitious target of sourcing 82% of its electricity from renewables by 2030, the federal government will increase the scheme’s scale by adding 3GW of solar and wind capacity and 5GW of dispatchable storage, lifting the total CIS target from 32GW to 40GW—a 25% expansion. This adjustment is expected to supply electricity to more than one million additional households, covering a total of 4.6 million homes.

The CIS, first introduced in December 2022, is an Australian Government revenue underwriting scheme to accelerate investment into renewable power generation and dispatchable clean energy capacity such as battery storage. The confidence behind the latest expansion is underpinned by the ongoing decline in renewable energy costs. According to the 2024–2025 GenCost Report released jointly by the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) and the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO), the levelized cost of energy (LCOE) for large-scale solar and wind is now lower than coal and gas, making them the “economic first choice” for new capacity. Notably, costs for two-hour battery energy storage systems (BESS) fell by as much as 20% in 2024–25, while utility-scale solar costs declined by 8% for the second consecutive year.

This trend is further reinforced by falling Chinese solar module export prices and a maturing domestic supply chain, which are enhancing Australia’s competitiveness in clean energy. By the end of 2024, the country’s combined wind and solar capacity had reached 52.19GW, nearly doubling from 26.85GW in 2020. Investment momentum is also strong: in the first half of 2024, foreign direct investment in clean energy surpassed AU$12 billion, up 37% year-on-year, with storage projects accounting for more than 40% for the first time—a clear signal of the sector’s strategic importance.

Yet, the transition is far from seamless. AEMO has warned that delays in critical transmission projects could force solar farms in southeastern Australia to cut output by as much as two-thirds by 2027, with some projects facing curtailments of 35%–65%. Similarly, the Australian Energy Regulator (AER) highlighted that the existing grid is ill-equipped to integrate large volumes of distributed generation, requiring at least AU$50 billion in smart grid upgrades and expansion over the next decade to eusure stability. In response, Bowen has announced a Grid Enhancing Technologies grants program (GETs) designed to support the modernisation of electricity networks, including those in remote regions, by funding the development and use of technologies to improve existing infrastructure's productivity, reliability, and control.

The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) has described Australia’s renewable ambitions as a potential benchmark for developed economies. If the 82% target is achieved, the country will stand out as a global leader in energy transition. However, balancing rapid deployment with system reliability will demand coordinated efforts from policymakers, investors, and communities alike—accelerating transmission buildout, scaling up storage, and ensuring both financial returns and social benefits are realized.

𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗮 𝗘𝗻𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁𝘀 𝗜𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝗟𝗠𝗠 𝗟𝗶𝘀𝘁-𝗜𝗜 𝘁𝗼 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝘂𝘀𝗵 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗗𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗦𝗼𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝘂𝗳𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴

Recently, India’s Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (𝗠𝗡𝗥𝗘) has officially enlisted the first batch of its ALMM List-II, a “White List” of approved solar cell manufacturers under its ALMM program. The list includes nine domestic production facilities under six manufacturers, with a combined annual capacity of 13 GW—marking a significant step forward in India’s drive to localize its solar supply chain.

The six approved manufacturers and their listed capacities are: 𝗘𝗺𝗺𝘃𝗲𝗲 (1,553 MW), 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗶𝗲𝗿 𝗘𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝗶𝗲𝘀 (751 MW + 1,174 MW), Adani Solar’s 𝗠𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗿𝗮 𝗦𝗼𝗹𝗮𝗿 (1,939 MW + 1,893 MW), 𝗥𝗲𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗣𝗩 (1,766 MW), 𝗝𝘂𝗽𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 (339 MW + 440 MW), and 𝗙𝗦 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗮 (3,212 MW), a subsidiary of US-based First Solar. Notably, First Solar India is the only thin-film cadmium telluride (CdTe) cell producer on the list, and its 3.21 GW capacity accounts for nearly a quarter of the total. The validity period extends from July 31, 2025, to July 30, 2029, barring FS India, whose validity ends on April 28, 2028.

Launched in 2019, the Approved List of Models and Manufacturers (𝗔𝗟𝗠𝗠) has become a cornerstone of India’s solar policy framework. According to 𝗦𝗮𝘂𝗿 𝗘𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆, by the end of June 2025, manufacturers in ALMM List-I (modules) had a total annual capacity of 𝟵𝟭.𝟲 𝗚𝗪. With rapid domestic expansion, India’s solar module import value has dropped sharply—from USD 3.36 billion in FY 2021-22 to USD 2.15 billion in FY 2024-25.

The market backdrop is equally striking. By the end of 2024, India’s cumulative solar capacity had reached 125.3 GW, making it the fourth country worldwide to cross the 100 GW threshold. 2024 annual additions hit 32.85 GW—up 𝟭𝟰𝟮.𝟳% year-on-year—pushing India to third globally for new capacity. Solar now accounts for 61% of the nation’s renewable installed base and remains central to achieving the 2030 target of 500 GW in renewables.

Yet, a structural imbalance persists: India's domestic solar manufacturing currently focuses more on modules than cells. In 2024, the country imported 65.9 GW worth of solar products, with cells making up almost 64% of the total—underscoring a domestic cell production shortfall. ALMM List-II may be able to address this gap, with a crucial rule kicking in from 𝗝𝘂𝗻𝗲 𝟭, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲: all government-linked solar projects must use both cells and modules from the approved ALMM lists.

Under the twin drivers of the Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme and ALMM mandates, India’s manufacturing base is scaling up quickly. Still, full supply-chain self-reliance will take time, as equipment and raw material imports remain significant. For global PV companies, aligning with India's policy trends and deepening local partnerships could unlock opportunities as the country transitions from capacity expansion to quality upgrades. With its cell bottleneck gradually easing, India’s path toward solar manufacturing self-sufficiency is accelerating.

According to the Saudi Gazette (July 14), a consortium comprising ACWA Power, the Saudi Aramco Power Company (SAPCO), and Badeel, a subsidiary of the Public Investment Fund (PIF), has signed Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) with the Saudi Power Procurement Company (SPPC) for seven major renewable energy projects across the Kingdom. With a total capacity of 15 GW and a projected investment of SAR 31 billion (approx. USD 8.3 billion), the initiative will bring online 12 GW of solar PV and 3 GW of wind capacity by 2028.

With bold policy direction, vast financial investment, and an unmatched natural solar potential, Saudi Arabia is emerging as a formidable player in the global solar energy market. The country has set an ambitious target of achieving 130 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2030, aiming to increase the contribution of renewable energy to the electricity mix to 50% by 2030, with the remainder to come from natural gas. Backed by the deep capital reserves of sovereign wealth entities like PIF and its affiliates, projects are advancing with remarkable momentum. In 2024, Saudi Arabia accounted for 3.48 GW of the MENA & SSA region’s total 14.31 GW of new PV installations—approximately 24%, the highest in the region (source: BNEF).

The newly signed projects will be distributed across the provinces of Asir, Madinah, Makkah, and Riyadh, including five solar PV plants in Bisha, Humaij, Khulis, Afif 1, and Afif 2, along with two wind projects in Starah and Shaqra. Financial close is expected in Q3 2025, with grid connection scheduled between late 2027 and early 2028. These developments are closely aligned with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 strategy, reflecting the Kingdom’s determination and operational efficiency. To date, SPPC has launched renewable energy projects totaling 43.2 GW in capacity, of which 38.7 GW have secured PPAs, and 10.2 GW are already grid-connected. The number is forecast to rise to 12.7 GW by the end of 2025, and further to 20 GW by the end of 2026.

In a region historically defined by fossil fuels, Saudi Arabia is now carving a new identity — one powered by sustainable resources. By 2024, the share of Saudi Arabia's non-oil economy GDP has already risen to nearly 55%, compared to 42% in 2016. Amidst the global energy transition, Saudi Arabia is emerging not just as a participant but as a key architect of the clean energy era. With a clear roadmap, robust institutional framework, and fast-track ex*****on, Saudi Arabia is making strides toward becoming a global clean energy powerhouse.

Seraphim Sable Series modules show less than 2% degradation in both PID(-) and PID(+) tests, meeting the new criteria for PID 192 test results in Kiwa PVEL's Top Performers 2025 PV Module Reliability Scorecard!

🤔 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗜𝗗 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗣𝗜𝗗 𝟭𝟵𝟮 𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁?
Potential Induced Degradation (PID) refers to power loss caused by leakage currents from high voltage stress between solar cells and other module components. In Kiwa PVEL’s PID 192 test, modules are exposed to 85°C and 85% relative humidity for 192 hours, with a voltage bias of ±1500V applied, representing PID(-) and PID(+) conditions.

💡 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗜𝗗 𝟭𝟵𝟮 𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿?
PID can cause significant and sometimes irreversible energy loss—up to 30%—impacting long-term performance and LCOE. It’s more likely in systems using transformerless inverters, especially under high heat and humidity. The PID 192 test simulates real-world PID risks before deployment to test a module's reliability against PID.

🔍 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗽𝗮𝘀𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗯𝗲 𝗮 𝗣𝗜𝗗 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗣𝗜𝗗 𝟭𝟵𝟮 𝗧𝗼𝗽 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗲𝗿?
With modules exposed to 85°C and 85% relative humidity for 192 hours, they must show < 2% degradation in both PID(-) and PID(+) to qualify (new rule applied to the 2025 Scorecard). This stricter benchmark disqualified 41% of candidates—but not Seraphim! Our Sable series modules stood the challenge and earned the PID 192 Top Performer title, proving their exceptional reliability. 🙌
