In the first half of 2023, France's solar installed capacity was 1378MW, compared to 1233MW in the same period last year.

From January to June, France's solar power generation reached 11.2 TWh, a year-on-year increase of 18%. Solar power generation accounts for 4.7% of France's electricity consumption, a year-on-year increase of 0.9%.

As of June 30, 2023, the installed solar capacity in France is 18GW, of which 17.3GW is domestically produced.

In the first half of 2023, the Auvergne Rh ô ne Alpes, Occitanie, Nouvelle Aquitaine, Provence Alpes C ô ted 'Azur and PaysdelaLoire regions played an important role in expanding solar power generation. These regions together account for 67% of the newly added grid connected capacity in China.

Although it only accounts for 0.2% of the total number of new grid connected equipment, between January and June, approximately 39% of the power generation came from new devices above 250kW. Equipment with smaller power, especially those below 9kW, account for 94% of new grid connected equipment and 24% of newly generated electricity.

The capacity of ongoing projects has experienced a significant increase, increasing by 19% since the beginning of the year to 20.1GW. Among these projects, 4.49GW have signed a grid connection agreement.

In France, 41.6% of photovoltaic installation comes from self use power generation projects (accounting for 78.5% of installed capacity), an increase of 1.2% compared to the previous quarter. The installed capacity of self use projects is 297GWh, accounting for 3.9% of the total photovoltaic power generation in this quarter.

In August, the French Ministry of Ecology and Solidarity and Transformation announced the list of winning bidders for the fifth round of commercial and industrial rooftop solar projects, which have a power generation capacity of over 500kW and a total power generation capacity of 378MW. The average quotation of 60 winning bidders is 0.1019 euros (approximately 0.1102 US dollars)/kWh.

The European Parliament and Council have temporarily agreed to raise the EU's binding renewable energy target from 32% to at least 42.5% by 2030. This means that the proportion of renewable energy in the EU will double.

UISOLAR is also committed to making a cleaner world by providing solar mounting structures all over the world. We have developed many different solar mounting solutions for specific project conditions. The general categories are solar ground mounting, solar roof mounting, solar carport mounting, etc. Customized is acceptable, even under severe conditions, and we hope to contribute to environmental protection by spreading our products around the world.
