The European Solar PV Industry Alliance (ESIA), launched in December 2022 to reinforce the cooperation within industry, set itself the target of 30 GW of production capacity along the value chain, an objective considered achievable by 2030. The ESIA pipeline includes more than 20 projects, including several at multi-GW scale. The
But the new provisions mainly focus on the use of degraded land and the acceleration of administrative procedures. “Currently, we are at 12 GW of installed PV capacity, which we need to triple by 2028 and by seven times by 2050,” said the minister.
It aims to deliver over 320 GW of solar photovoltaic by 2025 and almost 600 GW by 2030. Alongside the plan, the Commission also presented a set of initiatives on permitting processes for renewable energy projects, which are reflected in the revised Renewable Energy Directive (EU/2023/2413).
Some of the measures were already known and implemented, such as the new feed-in tariff for PV systems up to 500 kW and the obligation to install solar panels on certain kinds of buildings. But the new provisions mainly focus on the use of degraded land and the acceleration of administrative procedures.
According to the European Commission, solar energy has a potential to become part of the mainstream energy system by providing power and heat to households and industry. The strategy puts forward a target of over 320 GW of newly installed solar photovoltaic capacity by 2025, and almost 600 GW by 2030.
Over the last years, the EU has taken initiatives to strengthen its support to the European solar PV manufacturing sector, which includes several globally competitive companies in several steps of the value chain.
The solar industry encompasses so many manufacturing processes that the concept of ‘public support for solar PV manufacturing’ is an oversimplification. The production of a solar panel begins with quartz (SiO2), commonly found in sand. This is transformed into polysilicon by an energy-intensive process of melting and purification.
