What happened
Austria’s Renewable Energy Expansion Act funding agency published the results of the country’s third auction for solar PV market premiums in 2026. Successful bids ran from €0.054/kWh to €0.0725/kWh, with a volume-weighted average of €0.0642/kWh, slightly above the second-round result.S1
The auction offered 172.6 MW of solar capacity and awarded 173.4 MW across 195 successful bids. The agency did not disclose the level of oversubscription, while unsuccessful applicants remain eligible to submit bids in future auctions; no additional auction dates were announced.S1
The scheme accepts new ground-mounted and rooftop PV installations, as well as extensions of existing systems, with capacities exceeding 10 kW. Projects must not have been commissioned at the time of bidding, and ground-mounted installations on agricultural land or grassland can receive a reduction of up to 25% in their applicable bid value.S1
Austria’s second auction closed on June 11, 2026, offered 179 MW, and resulted in contracts awarded on July 10, with successful bids reaching a maximum of €0.0669/kWh. The third round’s highest successful bid was therefore higher than the previous ceiling. The first auction closed on March 17, awarded 170.97 MW against 175 MW offered, and produced a volume-weighted average of €0.0634/kWh.S1

XAIPART take
Technical impact
For project developers and EPC teams, the eligibility boundary matters: the tender covers both new-build and extension projects above 10 kW, but bidding systems must be uncompleted when the application is submitted. XAIPART analysis indicates that ground-mounted developers should model the lower bid-value treatment for agricultural or grassland sites before selecting modules, inverters, or balance-of-system equipment.
Market impact
The higher upper-end bid accepted in this round may provide additional support headroom for selected projects, although the source does not disclose project-level awards or oversubscription. XAIPART analysis recommends treating this as a procurement signal rather than a general equipment-price forecast, since module supply, installation costs, and the project mix behind the awards were not provided.
Action
Engineering and procurement teams should compare project economics under bid values of €0.054/kWh, €0.0642/kWh, and €0.0725/kWh rather than relying on the headline average alone. XAIPART analysis also recommends checking commissioning status, installation type, capacity eligibility, and the agricultural-land or grassland adjustment before submitting a future bid.
XAIPART Forecast
XAIPART expects Austria’s next announced solar market-premium auction to award at least 170 MW if the agency retains the planned auction cadence, with the allocation published within 12 months of the third-round results. This forecast is wrong if the next round is canceled or awards less than 170 MW.XAIPART analysis
