New EU subsidy regime for climate protection boosts solar

The new EU ‘state aid’ rules support projects for environmental protection, including climate protection and green energy generation. Now in line with the European Green Deal, the CEEAG prevents aid to fossil fuels, further restricts aid to natural gas, and otherwise integrates the Do No Significant Harm principle.

In the wake of COP26, and to ensure the EU stands up to its 1.5 °C commitment, SolarPower Europe calls on the EU to increase its renewable energy target to 45% by 2030.

Double-digit growth: EU solar market defies expectations to add 18.7 GW in 2020

Today, SolarPower Europe published its new EU Market Outlook for Solar Power, which shows that despite the setbacks of COVID-19, the European solar market grew by 11%, adding 18.7 GW of installations

National Energy and Climate Plans: A solar-powered energy system by 2030

The National Energy and Climate Plans confirm the bright future for solar in Europe, with 209 GW of solar PV capacity set to be added by 2030, or 19 GW per year. Solar will continue to be the most-installed energy generation technology in Europe between 2020 and 2030, together with wind energy.

Despite COVID-19 market contraction, appropriate stimulus measures can deliver bright global solar forecast

Due to the impact of COVID-19 and the extended lockdown on the global economy, the solar market will experience a contraction in 2020, with an expected decrease of 4% to 112 GW

Solar grows by 30% in 2017 with demand set to rise over next 5 years

Global Market Outlook 2018-2022: Solar Market Growth Continues

SolarPower Europe today launched the ‚Global Market Outlook for
Solar Power 2018-2022.‘ The report confirms that 2017 was another outstanding year for
the solar sector and that growth will continue for the coming five years. The world installed
99.1 GW in 2017 and is anticipated to exceed the 100 GW level in 2018. SolarPower Europe
estimates that solar is on course to add another 621.7 GW by 2022.

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.

Large energy consumers hungry for green power

Google, Norsk Hydro and Facebook are leading the growing trend of major companies looking to secure reliable and competitive power from renewable energy and reduce the risks associated with fossil fuel-based power supply. 100 top companies including leading industrial players are already committing to procure 100% renewable power in the short term through Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs)

The Evolution of Solar Power

Global expansion of solar PV has been following an exponential curve for more than two decades, going as far as doubling over the past two years. Safe to say, solar power has a very bright future, but let’s see what its evolution looks like on the world map.

Greenbyte has just released an interactive map showing the cumulative installed solar power capacity per country, continent and the world between 1992-2015. The Evolution of Solar Power is the result of a cooperation between Greenbyte and SolarPower Europe.

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.
