Denmark installed 336.7 MW of solar in the first half of 2026, an 11% increase year on year, bringing cumulative capacity to 5.4 GW, according to figures from the Danish solar association Dansk Solcelleforening. Growth is driven by larger-scale projects, with 271 MW of utility-scale installations above 1 MW switched on in H1, up from 208 MW a year earlier. Rooftop solar continues to decline, with residential deployments falling from 36.3 MW to 28.2 MW and C&I from 55.2 MW to 37.2 MW. The Danish Parliament is preparing new regulations to make PV installation on public buildings simpler and more attractive, expected to enter into force on September 14.

[SMM PV Flash] September film monthly pricing has been finalized!

The new round of monthly pricing for film in September has basically been settled. Since the estimated module scheduled production in September shows limited MoM change, and upstream EVA particle prices have remained stable recently, there are no conditions for a significant price surge in the short term. This round of film pricing is basically flat compared with August. Going forward, it is necessary to continuously track the actual fulfillment of module scheduled production, as well as the transmission impact on film prices from changes in the upstream particle supply-demand pattern.
