Contact Us4 Frequently Asked Questions about “Western Europe Smart Solar Power System”
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.
Should the EU support smart energy devices?
The EU should specify in its State Aid Guidelines that Member States' support for smart energy devices, such as inverters, heat pumps, EV chargers, and batteries, should aim to make buildings capable of demand response.
Are smart solar buildings a good investment?
Smart solar buildings enhance efficiency, reduce costs, and strengthen grid reliability in mature solar markets. 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.
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.
