According to the latest statistical report of Solarplaza, the Dutch Photovoltaic Media, in the installed capacity ranking of rooftop solar projects in the Netherlands in the past five years, among the top 30 rooftop solar projects, there were 6 rooftop projects facilitating AKCOME solar modules, and the ratio of modules and module delivery tied first.
In 2017, the Dutch government carried out the supporting plan for Stimulering Duurzame Energie (SDE +) competitive bidding to support photovoltaic development with its full potential, and it is estimated that it will render a photovoltaic subsidy budget of €5 billion in 2022. Stimulated by this policy, the photovoltaic market in the Netherlands will have rapid development in recent years. According to the Statistics Netherlands: in 2017, the newly installed photovoltaic capacity in the Netherlands was only 853MW, newly added 1.69GW in 2018, newly added 2.57GW in 2019, newly installed capacity of 2.93GW in 2020 and reaching a record of 3.3GW in 2021, the photovoltaic energy accounts for up to 80% of energy. Based on the prediction of BloombergNEF, the newly installed capacity in the Netherlands will reach 4GW in 2022, and it will become one of the global GW markets.
The favorable conditions for rooftop PV in the Netherlands have led to significant increases in the size and number of large projects in recent years. Of the top 30 projects in the country, 14 were commissioned in 2021 and two entered operation this year.
According to statistics, from 2018 to 2022, among the Top 30 rooftop solar projects in the Netherlands, there were 6 projects facilitating the solar modules manufacturing by AKCOME, accounting for 17.6%, and AKCOME tied first with another module manufacturer. In Limburg, Noord-Brabant in the south, there are four of the six rooftop solar projects in the Netherlands, of which the 18MW PVH Corp warehouse rooftop project of Venlo, the second largest, used the photovoltaic modules manufactured by AKCOME.
In the AKCOME's globalization process of module sales, the European market plays an important role, accounting for 20% of the global module market sales of AKCOME. As the Dutch market is a GW market, AKCOME will keep up with developing and maintaining its leading position in the distributed field.
