The Federal Network Agency of Germany (Bundesnetzagentur) reported 1,1128 GW of newly installed Netto PV capacity in May 2025. The figure is compared to 1,223 MW in May 2024 and 945 MW in April 2025.
Cumulative installations for the period of January-May 2025 reached 5.97 GW, just below 6.16 GW added in the same period a year earlier, said Bundesnetzagentur. This year’s new capacity comprises 2,497.1 MW mounted systems, 213.2 MW Balcony Solar Devices and 74.1 MW in the “Other solar systems” category.
Towards the end of May, the operational PV fleet of Germany had reached around 106.3 GW. Figures from Marktstammdatenregister, the German Federal Register for Energy Market Data, show that the demand for PV systems on the roof remained weak during the fifth month of the year.
Bundesnetzagentur registered 476.7 MW new capacity on the roof in May, only 1.3 MW more than March, the lowest month to date this year. Installers in May commissioned around 30,000 new systems on the roof.
