CPV Code 313, Photovoltaics
What does CPV code 313 cover?
CPV code 313 (Photovoltaics) classifies tenders for the installation and procurement of solar energy systems in the public sector. This includes rooftop PV systems on schools, government buildings and sports halls, ground-mounted photovoltaics on municipal land, battery storage systems, solar carports on public car parks, and innovative concepts such as agri-PV and building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV).
Photovoltaics is the fastest-growing area in public procurement for energy installations. Solar mandates in an increasing number of German states for public new builds and roof renovations are massively driving tender volumes. Added to this is the federal government's target of reaching 215 GW of installed PV capacity by 2030, a significant portion of which is to be realised on public buildings.
The public PV procurement boom
Several factors are driving demand:
- Solar mandates: Mandatory PV installation on public new builds in several federal states
- Economic viability: PV electricity is significantly cheaper than grid power, reducing operating costs
- Climate protection plans: Municipal climate plans envisage PV on all suitable public roofs
- Funding programmes: Federal and state governments subsidise PV on public buildings
Typical tender formats
Public PV tenders encompass various models including purchase and installation, leasing/contracting, roof leasing, and bundled tenders covering multiple buildings.
