Wind and solar could power business all over Europe
The private sector accounts for around half of Europe’s electricity consumption. Powering corporate consumers with renewable energy could deliver massive reductions in CO2 emissions, save businesses money and make it easier for people to invest in renewables.
Large energy consumers such as chemical and aluminium producers, ICT and food & drink companies gathered in Brussels today with renewable energy producers to consider how to unlock this potential. The RE-Source 2017 event brought together industry leaders such as Google, Mars, IKEA and Alcoa with energy players EDF Energies Nouvelles, ENEL Green Power, Envision and Vestas with policy makers.
The volume of ‚Corporate Renewable Power Purchase Agreements‘ (PPAs) – which allow companies to purchase renewable energy directly from an energy generator – almost tripled in Europe in 2016, with over 1 GW of capacity contracted. Globally, more than 100 top companies have now committed to procure 100% renewable elegctricity via the RE100 initiative,together accounting for 150 TWh of yearly consumption.

2015: A positive year for solar
In 2015, solar grew by 15% in Europe connecting 8 GW of solar power to
the grid. Global grid-connected solar increased by 25% to an estimated 50.1 GW in 2015, from 40.2
th GW in 2014. SolarPower Europe presented its industry figures today at the 11 Solar Market
Workshop.
„2015 was an extremely successful year for solar and after 3 consecutive years of decline in Europe it
is especially encouraging to see the sector grow again“ says Oliver Schafer, President of SolarPower
Europe.
The base for Europe’s solar power demand in 2015 derived from mainly 3 countries – UK, Germany
and France. These top 3 markets counted for 75% of the connections, equal to 5.3 GW. In 2014 their
share was also 75%, but equal to 6 GW. For the second year in a row, the UK took first place with an
estimated 3.7 GW.
