Italy’s renewable-energy regulator approved 507 commercial and utility-scale solar parks, or about one in every six projects seeking permits for the first half of next year, as spending limits curb market growth.

Projects with 682 megawatts in total capacity qualified for feed-in tariffs, or premium rates for solar power, after applying to the country’s second registry for solar parks, the Gestore Servizi Energetici said today on its website. More than half of this capacity has already been built and connected, the data show.
