A solar power plant''s typical operation entails a bank of the solar panels receiving sunlight and converting it into DC electricity via photovoltaic (PV) effect produced by PV cells in panels. This DC electricity is fed into a battery, which stores it. This DC power is converted to AC power by an inverter, & inverter''s AC output is sent into mains, from which various applications take power.
Depending on the project''s location and size, different permits may be needed to install solar panels. Typical permit kinds are as follows: Obtaining:a building permit guarantees that the installation adheres to regional building regulations and requirements. In order to connect the solar power system to the electrical grid, electrical permits are needed.
The legislation defines the conditions for the installation of solar panels on agricultural, natural, or forest land. It also contains a definition of agrivoltaics and places agricultural
France is currently on course to miss its target to commission 20.1GW of solar power by late 2023. In response, the French government has enacted a number of industry-specific provisions to catch up. The legislation will also allow solar power plants to be developed on wasteland, salt flats and strips of land along highways.

Market revenues from solar power plants that exceed €100/MWh are subject to a tax based on three periods, the first of which is retroactive to 1 July 2022. This tax is due until 31 December 2023. Many measures have been enacted by the government in recent months.
The ban, which covers applications made from February 2024 onwards, effectively shuts the door to the construction of large power plants that play an essential role in the development of solar energy.
The Act devotes a whole section to the development of "thermal, photovoltaic and agrivoltaic" solar energy. The Act offers access to state-owned land, like plots along or near railway tracks, which, until now, have remained unused.
Legislation that would require EU member states to integrate solar installations into future building works, and retroactively install PV on buildings, is one step closer to becoming law, after being approved by members of the European Parliament. Image: Markus Spiske, Unsplash
Some non-agrivoltaic solar projects can also be developed on farmland if they are considered to be compatible with agriculture. Their compatibility with agriculture is assessed by comparing the proposed site for the project with one or several neighbouring plots belonging to the same owner.
The French government has published the long-awaited Decree No. 2024-318 in the country's official journal. The legislation defines the conditions for the installation of solar panels on agricultural, natural, or forest land. It also contains a definition of agrivoltaics and places agricultural exploitation at the center of the debate.
