The European Solar Charter was signed in Brussels, 15/04/2024. © European Union 2024 According to SolarPower Europe, solar PV capacity has continued to increase, reaching an estimated 338 GWdc in 2024. 2024 has been the fourth consecutive record year for solar PV deployment in the EU, with approximately 65 GWdc installed.
Public solar PV targets The updated draft National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP), sent to the European Commission in July 2023, sets a target of 57 GW new PV power capacity in the 2022-2030 period (out of the total 73 GW new renewable power capacity). This would lead to a total solar capacity of 79 GW by the end of the decade.
The Charter sets out a series of immediate, voluntary actions that are to be undertaken to support the EU solar PV manufacturing sector. The Net-Zero Industry Act Regulation (NZIA), which provides a regulatory framework to boost the competitiveness of EU net-zero industry, including solar PV, entered into force in June 2024.
