The North African country of Tunisia has issued two renewable energy tenders totaling 1 gigawatt (GW), including a tender for 500 megawatts (MW) of solar PV and 500 MW of onshore wind.
Spain’s solar association Unión Española Fotovoltaica has announced it is seeking legal action in the wake of what it is calling a “discriminatory” renewable energy auction that prioritized wind energy over solar energy, despite both technologies offering the same bid prices.
