Italy is one of the fastest growing PV market in Europe, thanks also to her generous incentives that are among the highest in the world; however, the development of a PV market in Italy faces many difficulties like long lead times for the connection to the grid or the difficulties to obtain authorizations. The law appointed GSE (Gestore dei Servizi Elettrici) as the national implementing body for allocating incentives. Among its tasks, GSE has that of supporting a better understanding of the PV market and therefore a survey about the main barriers was conducted, along with other institutes: ENEA, Etaflorence, and Politecnico di Milano. All members of the team are participants to Task 10, the international collaborative project of the Photovoltaic Power Systems Programme (PVPS) of the International Energy Agency. The main barriers are identified in different sectors such as administrative, related to the utility, economic, technical and social/cultural. The study is based on information obtained from all main PV Italian players using two tools: questionnaires and interviews, and gives a detailed picture concerning barriers and their solution from the point of view of those facing them as well as of those directly or indirectly involved.

Abstract
Italy is one of the fastest growing PV market in Europe, thanks also to her generous incentives that are among the highest in the world; however, the development of a PV market in Italy faces many difficulties like long lead times for the connection to the grid or the difficulties to obtain authorizations. The law appointed GSE (Gestore dei Servizi Elettrici) as the national implementing body for allocating incentives. Among its tasks, GSE has that of supporting a better understanding of the PV market and therefore a survey about the main barriers was conducted, along with other institutes: ENEA, Etaflorence, and Politecnico di Milano. All members of the team are participants to Task 10, the international collaborative project of the Photovoltaic Power Systems Programme (PVPS) of the International Energy Agency. The main barriers are identified in different sectors such as administrative, related to the utility, economic, technical and social/cultural. The study is based on information obtained from all main PV Italian players using two tools: questionnaires and interviews, and gives a detailed picture concerning barriers and their solution from the point of view of those facing them as well as of those directly or indirectly involved.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
