However, the government has dropped a comprehensive market cap it had been demanding, according to a report from EuPD Research.

The scope of the FIT reductions has not yet been determined. Additional talks are expected to take place next month.

"Making adjustments to funding is the right step," said Markus A.W. Hoehner, CEO of EuPD Research. "Prices in the small rooftop system segment in Italy are, on average, 4,300 euros and peak at 6,000 euros. These prices are much higher than those in other European countries such as Germany, Spain or France."

EuPD Research notes that in addition to the 3.7 GW of PV capacity already connected to the grid in Italy, 3.8 GW currently awaits interconnection, according to data from electricity provider GSE.
