In the blue Mediterranean coast, Italy is quietly set off a green energy revolution. As one of the important economies in Europe, Italy's thirst for renewable energy is increasing day by day, and the photovoltaic industry, as the front-runner of this change, is receiving unprecedented attention.

According to foreign media reports, the European Parliament recently approved the EU photovoltaic standards bill, which requires that EU member states will be installed on the building photovoltaic systems in the future.

At a meeting organised by the EU Energy Council on 4 March, participants discussed the development of the photovoltaic (PV) industry in Europe, focusing on the twin objectives of accelerating the installation of PV systems and protecting Europe's PV manufacturing industry from the pressure of imports of low-priced PV products.

Global PV system developers installed 345.5GW of PV systems in 2023, according to a recently released report by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) titled Renewable Energy Capacity Statistics 2024. The Chinese PV market is largely driving this growth, accounting for nearly three-quarters of the new PV system capacity installed globally, but the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) says faster growth is needed to meet the 2030 PV deployment target.

With 90 million euros to be invested over the next three years, the country is launching a 'photovoltaic for all' program.

Recently, the International Energy Agency released the "Renewable Energy 2023" annual market report shows that the global renewable energy new installed capacity in 2023 than 2022 growth of 50%, installed capacity growth rate than any time in the past 30 years. The report predicts a period of rapid growth in global installed renewable energy capacity over the next five years, but key issues such as financing in emerging and developing economies still need to be addressed.

The International Energy Agency (IEA) recently reviewed 14 major trends that will affect the development of the renewable energy industry in 2023, and predicted changes in the energy industry in 2024.

The International Energy Agency (IEA) recently pointed out that Australia in 2023 ~ 2028 installed capacity of installed rooftop photovoltaic systems will decline faster than it expected. And the country is facing problems in terms of grid integration and power system saturation, leading the agency to revise its growth expectations for installed renewable energy capacity in Australia.

Investigations show that the price of photovoltaic (PV) modules shipped from Asia to Europe has risen by 20 per cent as a result of soaring freight costs due to the Red Sea shipping crisis. Red Sea maritime trade used to account for 12 per cent of global maritime trade.

FARSUN has learned from foreign media that the French Senate has approved new legislation that will promote the deployment of renewable energy in France, and requires outdoor parking lots to install solar energy in accordance with the law.
