From pv magazine France

France's energy regulator, the Commission de Régulation de l'Énergie (CRE), has released the feed-in tariffs (FITs) for rooftop PV installations up to 500 kW in size for the second quarter of 2022.

The new tariff levels were published by French renewable energy association Enerplan.

The FITs are usually lowered quarter by quarter, according to the new capacity for which connection requests were received in the previous three-month period. This quarter, however, the tariffs were increased for all PV system categories, ranging from €181.40 ($190.90)/MWh for installations not exceeding 3 kW in size to €96.90/MWh for arrays ranging in capacity from 36 kW to 100 kW.

 

FITs for the French mainland.

 

Different tariffs are applied depending on project size and location.  The new tariffs went into force on May 1. The tariffs were indexed to inflation. It is possible that the rates could be increased in the coming weeks.
