Germany\u2019s new solar PV installations\u00a0in July 2026\u00a0hit the highest monthly additions this year,\u00a0with the Federal Network Agency reporting 1.828 GW additions to its Market Master Data Register.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
This capacity was an increase over\u00a0the 1.36 GW the agency registered for June 2026 and well above the\u00a01.59 GW reported for July 2025.\u00a0The agency had previously pegged\u00a0June registrations\u00a0at 1.27 GW\u00a0(see\u00a0Germany Solar Additions Rise 9% In H1 2026<\/a>).\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n A large part of the July 2026 additions came from ground-mounted solar projects with 917.7 MW capacity spread across 246 parks. Rooftop solar projects added 628.5 MW, while plug-in solar contributed 62 MW to the\u00a0monthly total.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n Together, these capacity additions total 9.38 GW\u00a0between January and July this year,\u00a0comprising\u00a05.12 GW of\u00a0ground-mounted, 4.02 GW of rooftop solar, and 346.5 MW of plug-in solar, also referred to as balcony solar.\u00a0<\/p>\n At the end of the reporting period, the Federal Network Agency says Germany\u2019s cumulative installed solar PV capacity reached 127.38 GW.\u00a0<\/p>\n The country\u2019s renewable energy industry is set for a change as the government has proposed replacing permanent feed-in\u00a0tariffs with direct marketing for new renewable energy projects under the amended Renewable Energy Sources Act (EEG) (see\u00a0German Cabinet Backs Ending FITs\u00a0For\u00a0New Rooftop Solar Under EEG<\/a>).\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Germany\u2019s new solar PV installations\u00a0in July 2026\u00a0hit the highest monthly additions this year,\u00a0with the Federal Network Agency reporting…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":74438,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[10090,664,665,5,55188,55189],"class_list":["post-74437","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-germany","tag-balcony-solar","tag-bundesnetzagentur","tag-federal-network-agency","tag-germany","tag-germany-solar-installations","tag-plug-in-solar"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74437","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=74437"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74437\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/74438"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=74437"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=74437"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=74437"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
