To cut down on wasted energy, wind and solar farms can have up to 10% \u2014 compared to the previous 5% \u2014 of their generation curtailed in \u201careas with better resource conditions.\u201d Excess renewables can be used in areas that were previously declared overcrowded and could mean an extra 30 GW of solar panel installations this year. The other policies included increasing the battery storage capacity target to 40 GW by 2025, up from 30 GW, faster build out of power lines, as well as a rigorous approval process for green energy manufacturing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The market is already feeling it:<\/strong> More flexible limits have curbed fears of slowing renewable installations due to rising grid congestions.
