to Tax Output from Solar Power,” reneweconomy.com.au, 18 September 2013, http://reneweconomy.com.au/2013/czech- follows-spain-in-deciding-to-tax-output-from-solar-power-49694; John Parnell, “Spanish Solar Cuts Force IKEA to Hand PV Plant Back to the Bank,” PV-tech, 6 February 2014, http://www.pv-tech. org/news/spanish_solar_cuts_force_ikea_to_hand_pv_plant_ back_to_the_bank. 28 Tim Murphy, “Addressing PV Grid-Access Barriers Across Europe,” NPD Solarbuzz, 7 February 2013, http://www. renewableenergyworld.com/rea/news/article/2013/02/ addressing-pv-grid-access-barriers-across-europe. 29 Figure of 3,305 MW added from Arbeitsgruppe Erneuerbare Energien-Statistik (AGEE-Stat), Erneuerbare Energien im Jahr 2013 (Berlin: Bundesministerium für Wirtschaft und Energie, 2014), p. 2, http://www.bmwi.de/BMWi/Redaktion/PDF/A/agee-stat- bericht-ee-2013,property=pdf,bereich=bmwi2012,sprache=de, rwb=true.pdf; 3,304 MW added for a total of 35,500 MW, and 7.6 GW for three years from IEA-PVPS, op. cit. note 1. 30 The year-end total was 35,948 from AGEE-Stat, op. cit. note 29, p. 2; and 35,500 MW, from IEA-PVPS, op. cit. note 1. 31 BSW-Solar survey, cited in Ben Willis, “Survey Reveals Shift to PV Self-Consumption in Germany,” PV-tech, 26 July 2013, http://www.pv-tech.org/news/survey_reveals_shift_to_pv_ self_consumption_in_germany. Self-generation introduces new complexities for solar PV installers, who must determine appropriate system size. These complexities also result in higher costs for system owners, per Masson, op. cit. note 1. 32 More than 1.5 GW from EPIA, op. cit. note 1; 1,000 MW added for a total of 2,900 MW, from IEA-PVPS, op. cit. note 1; region’s strongest from Marc Rosa, “England’s Clouds Part for Solar as Panels Carpet Fields,” Bloomberg, 14 January 2014, http:// www.renewableenergyworld.com/rea/news/article/2014/01/ englands-clouds-part-for-solar-as-panels-carpet-fields. The market for smaller systems was also healthy, driven by the FIT for systems under 50 kW capacity, and more than 500,000 rooftop systems were operating in the country by year’s end, per “More than 500,000 Rooftop PV Systems Installed in the UK,” PV News, February 2014, p. 3. 33 Italy added 1,461 MW for a total of 17,600 MW, Romania added 1,100 MW for a total of 1,150 MW, and Greece added 1,041 MW for a total of 2,579 MW, all from IEA-PVPS, op. cit. note 1, and from EPIA, op. cit. note 2, p. 4. 34 Italy added 1,461 MW in 2013, down from 9.3 GW in 2011, 3.6 GW in 2012; Belgium added 215 MW, down from 600 MW, for a total of 2,983 MW; Denmark added 153 MW, down from 300 MW in 2012, for a total of 532 MW; and France added 613 MW in 2013 for a total of 4,632 MW, all from IEA-PVPS, op. cit. note 1. Italy’s "Quinto Conto Energia" (grant for PV) ended on July 2013, but a 50% tax credit for small-scale rooftop systems is ongoing. The tax credit is expected support the growth of small residential PV plants, per Alessandro Marangoni, Althesys Strategic Consultants, personal communication with REN21, 16 April 2014. 35 Tim Flannery and Veena Sahajwalla, The Critical Decade: Australia’s Future—Solar Energy (Climate Commission Secretariat, 2013), http://apo.org.au/files/Resource/climatecommission_ australias-future-solar-energy_2013.pdf; Clean Energy Council, “Rooftop Solar Powers Past New Milestone,” press release (Melbourne: 5 December 2013). 36 An estimated 848 MW was added for a total of 3,255 MW at year’s end, from IEA-PVPS, op. cit. note 1; to reduce electricity bills from Jonathan Gifford, “Australia Hits 3 GW Installed Capacity Milestone,” PV Magazine, 4 December 2013, http://www.pv-magazine.com/news/details/beitrag/ australia-hits-3-gw-installed-capacity-milestone_100013649. 37 Penn Energy, “Australia Reaches 3 GW Solar Renewable Energy Milestone,” 9 December 2013, http://www.pennenergy.com/ articles/pennenergy/2013/12/australia-reaches-solar-power- capacity-milestone-of-3-gw.html. 38 Promising markets in the region include Chile, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, French Guyana, Guadeloupe, Guatemala, Martinique, Mexico, Peru, and Uruguay. In Peru, a “double 20 MW” plant was inaugurated in early 2013, per IEA-PVPS, op. cit. note 5, p. 20; Ecuador from Maria Gabriela da Rocha, BNEF, cited in Marc Roca, “Mexican Sun Lures Cash to Solar as Panel Prices Plunge,” Bloomberg, 4 October 2013, http:// www.renewableenergyworld.com/rea/news/article/2013/10/ mexican-sun-lures-cash-to-solar-as-panel-prices-plunge; Guatemala began construction of Central America’s largest 39 solar park (50 MW), due to be completed August 2014, per Gustavo E. Méndez, “Pioneered Solar Guatemala in Central America,” Agencia Guatemalteca de Noticias, 14 February 2013, http://www.agn.com.gt/index.php/world/business/ item/2629-guatemala-pionera-en-energ%C3%ADa-solar- en-centroamérica (using Google Translate); “Sky Solar and Tecnova Renovables to Build 8 MW Solar Park in Western Uruguay,” Photon.info, 14 November 2013, http://www.photon. info/photon_news_detail_en.photon?id=82287; Edgar Meza, “Uruguay Receives 11 Bids for PV Projects Totaling 27 MW,” PV Magazine, 28 October 2013, http://www.pv-magazine.com/ news/details/beitrag/uruguay-receives-11-bids-for-pv-projects- totaling-27-mw_100013250/z; Blanca Diaz and Edgar Meza, “Net Metering in Dominican Republic Shows Results,” PV Magazine, 4 July 2013, http://www.pv-magazine.com/news/details/ beitrag/net-metering-in-dominican-republic-shows-results- _100011922/#axzz2z8EuzWQa. For more on Latin America, see Vince Font, “Solar in 2014 Finally Gets Some Respect,” Renewable Energy World, January–February 2014, p. 24. Slower than expected from EPIA, op. cit. note 2, p. 5; Chile has seen several project announcements, but little capacity added as of 2013, from IEA-PVPS, op. cit. note 5, p. 19. Hurdles to deployment in Chile include transmission constraints and permitting and siting delays. By September 2013, Chile had a pipeline backlog greater than 3 GW of solar PV capacity, but only 70 MW was under development, and only 3.5 MW of grid-connected capacity was operating, per James Montgomery, “Latin America Report: Chile’s Road to Solar Grid Parity,” Renewable Energy World, 11 September 2013, http://www. renewableenergyworld.com/rea/news/article/2013/09/ latin-america-report-chiles-road-to-solar-grid-parity; Peter Carvill, “Mexican President Inaugurates One of Latin America’s Largest Solar Farms,” PV Magazine, 3 April 2014, http:// www.pv-magazine.com/news/details/beitrag/mexican- president-inaugurates-one-of-latin-americas-largest-solar- farms_100014731/; Christian Roselund, “Land of the Sun: Solar PV in Latin America,” Solar Server, 18 March 2014, http://www. solarserver.com/solar-magazine/solar-report/solar-report/land-of- the-sun-solar-pv-in-latin-america.html.

In Mexico, large-scale solar PV projects are not subsidised but development is driven by good solar resources, falling solar PV costs, and foreign developers and manufacturers in search of new markets, per Maria Gabriela da Rocha, BNEF, cited in Roca, op. cit. note 38. Mexico added 45 MW in 2013 for a total of 100 MW, from IEA-PVPS, op. cit. note 1.
