Solar Remote Power Systems in Eastern Europe

New solar park near Sarulesti in the district of Calarasi in southwestern Romania. The PV market in Central and Eastern Europe continues to develop dynamically. Challenges are - as elsewhere - grid expansion, energy storage, load management and bureaucracy reduction. A lack of grid infrastructure is a key challenge in Eastern Europe, and was discussed at Large Scale Solar Central Eastern Europe 2024.

Which European countries have the most solar energy?

The age of solar energy is dawning in Eastern Europe: According to the European industry association SolarPower Europe, Poland has been one of the top ten leading countries in Europe in terms of PV deployment since 2016. Hungary has joined the list after adding 1.6 gigawatts (GW) of PV capacity in 2023, a 45 percent increase over the previous year.

Why is Eastern Europe getting more solar power?

The country’s total solar power output increased dramatically, by 970 megawatts (MW) to be exact. The PV boom in Eastern Europe is driven by a desire for greater energy independence and a commitment to environmental and climate targets. Other key drivers are cost efficiency, technological advances and subsidy policies.

Will smart solar buildings meet Europe's energy security needs by 2030?

Our modelling shows, that by 2030, smart solar building solutions could meet more than half of EU daily energy system flexibility needs, and a third of its annual flexibility needs. That means a more cost-effective system, resilient to shocks and strengthening Europe’s energy security.

Why is Solarpower Europe launching a 'let's flex' summit?

This is a key demand from SolarPower Europe, which set a “Let’s Flex” theme for the event and released a study on leveraging flexibility in buildings. The summit also celebrated both the new commission’s support for the industry and the solar association’s 40th anniversary.

Will Europe's sluggish solar growth hinder energy security and climate goals?

Solar installations reached 65.5 GW in the European Union in 2024, marking just 4% growth year on year, according to SolarPower Europe. The decline coincided with the first drop in solar investment this decade, prompting warnings that sluggish growth could hinder Europe’s energy security and climate goals.

How much solar power does Europe have in 2024?

The bulk of EU solar power comes from building installations, which make up around two-thirds (over 220 GW) of current EU solar capacity. Despite a recent slowdown in the rooftop segment, it still provided close to 60% of Europe’s newly installed solar capacity in 2024, and the prominence of rooftop solar is unlikely to change in the foreseeable.
