Portugal added just 1.1 of new PV capacity in the first quarter of 2013, according to the latest data from the Portuguese Directorate General for Geology and Energy. The country therefore now has a cumulative installed PV capacity of 226.6 MW. The newly installed capacity in the month of March was of around 900 kW, up from 200 kW installed in the first two months of this year. For comparison, Portugal added 67.8 MW of PV power last year. PV covered 0.7% of the country’s total electricity demand in March, the same value as was registered in February. Portugal currently only grants FITs to PV systems up to 250 kW in size. For 2013, the government has allocated 11 MW of PV capacity for micro-generation systems (up to 3.68 kW). The government has not said how much capacity it will allocate this year for mini-generation installations (up to 250 kW).
