Doesn’t sound like price is an issue, they don’t have enough people to install them and other problems.
a growing number of solar panels are sitting in storage because of various bottlenecks and barriers along the supply chain, including labour shortages, critical material delays and long interconnection queues.
In the country where I live, thare are regions where the grid doesn’t accept new production capacity - because installed capacity covers local demand and electricity cannot get where it would be needed.
Also, planning is slow and permits are issued slowly - I have an acquaintance who created a semi-legal solar park because waiting for permits would take too long. Electrically, everything is fine, professionals wrote the project and did the job. The parish just wasn’t informed, only the grid company was. Since it’s a small park, it flies under the radar. :o
My own installation isn’t worthy of the name “solar park”, but it’s entirely outside law - to avoid needing a permit, I dropped the voltage, ran thicker copper (to make things work with lower voltage) and didn’t get a grid connection. As a result, I didn’t need to wait for someone to give me a permit.

I think the same.
