1. Verbund Visiolar Germany solar PV park The Verbund Visiolar solar PV park is a sizable project planned near Berlin, with a capacity of 2,000 MW. This solar plant will span 3,459 acres at first, with plans to expand further across 49,421 acres. Its sheer scale makes it one of Germany’s most anticipated solar projects.
By ensuring energy resilience, reliability, and sustainability, BESS aligns with Germany’s vision for a carbon-neutral future and sets a benchmark for the global energy transition. Enabling Germany's Energy Transition requires an economically sustainable model to attract necessary private capital.
The annual growth rate during this period is eight per cent. The expansion also includes the replacement of old PV systems ("repowering"), which is currently still marginal, but could amount to up to 15 GWp/a in the phase after 2040. Looking at the historical market development, two growth phases of photovoltaics in Germany can be distinguished.
The focus of this transformation is decarbonisation, which is being driven forward by the German government with ambitious targets. The goal: increased resilience. The accelerated expansion of photovoltaics (PV) plays a central role in this transformation. A complex task that opens up new design and growth options.
Annual targets can also be derived from the federal government's plans, which illustrate the growth pattern: The coming years will be characterised by strong, double-digit growth in photovoltaics. The annual increase in capacity is set to rise to over 22 GWp/a from 2026. By way of comparison, a record 14 GWp of new capacity was added in 2023.
With a 72.3% market share, lithium-ion batteries dominate grid scale BESS applications and are set to remain the top choice for future needs. Germany led the European BESS market in 2023, with a 34% share, followed by Italy at 22% and the UK at 15%.
