How much solar power does the EU produce?

The production volume of electricity from solar photovoltaic power in the European Union has been steadily increasing in the last years. In 2023, the EU's solar PV power production stood at over 240 terawatt hours.

What is Solarpower Europe's EU market outlook?

SolarPower Europe’s annual EU Market Outlook helps policy stakeholders in delivering solar PV’s immense potential to meet the EU’s 2030 renewable energy targets. Produced with the support of our memb ers and national solar association, the outlook demonstrates how solar energy can, and will, be the engine that drives the European Green Deal.

Will EU support solar PV Manufacturing in Europe reshape global market growth?

The announced support schemes for solar PV manufacturing in Europe, attempting to boost EU’s domestic manufacturing capacities and rebuilt its competitiveness in the global PV value chain, are encouraging, but their realisation is not keeping up with global market growth.

Why do we need a PV system in the EU?

The development of PVs in the EU and the world is closely linked to the energy policy and sustainable energy policy. According to the regulations, the EU approved a 40% cut of greenhouse gas emissions in 2030 compared to 1990. Another objective of the EU is the share of renewable energy sources and energy savings set at 27% .

Is photovoltaic a pillar of EU energy transition?

PV is the fastest-growing source of electricity production from renewable energies and a pillar for EU’s energy transition. According to projections, an even broader deployment of photovoltaic systems is required in order to achieve the goals set in the European Green Deal (EGD).

What is the EU solar energy strategy?

The EU solar energy strategy proposed under the REPowerEU plan aims to make solar energy a cornerstone of the EU energy system. Boosting renewable energy is also an important part of the European Green Deal in the context of the green transition towards climate neutrality.
