Spain 's government is reviewing bidding rules ahead of a planned renewable energy auction for large-scale projects later this year . Environment Minister Teresa Ribera is due to announce new initiatives in addition to measures - notably the end of the solar tax on distributed generation - announced in later this year . The ministry’s press office said the bidding rules are being reviewed in order to adapt them to international standards. This auction made PV projects possible, since the Spanish government agreed to increase the maximum discount, which could be offered by project developers for both wind and solar projects. Spain held 1.5 technology-neutral auctions in later this year , but the first was dominated by wind and the first - after PV-favourable adjustments - by solar.
