Low-cost PV - The Key for  Sustainable Future Energy System

Low-cost PV - The Key for Sustainable Future Energy System

 The factsheet shows how affordable solar PV is the key for electrifying the future sustainable energy system where fossils are replaced by renewable fuels.

The PV LCOE is predicted to decrease by about 20% by 2030, and by 50% by 2050.

European Critical Raw Materials Act Public Consultation ETIP PV Contribution

European Critical Raw Materials Act Public Consultation ETIP PV Contribution

The European Technology and Innovation Platform on Photovoltaics ETIP PV welcomes the opportunity to 
contribute to the European Commission public consultation on the upcoming European Critical Raw materials 
act. The European Union needs to have a raw material strategy that is consistent with the imperatives of its 
energy and climate policies, notably with regards to energy independence and for the success of the European 
Green Deals in terms of jobs and social impacts. As the European platform assessing the research and innovation 
needs of the PV sector throughout its value chain and towards the market uptake of innovative technologies, 
the ETIP PV is well situated to provide a perspective on the European Critical Raw Materials Act in the 
perspective of the energy transition.

Expert input paper on eco-design & energy labelling for photovoltaic modules, inverters and systems in the EU

Expert input paper on eco-design & energy labelling for photovoltaic modules, inverters and systems in the EU

This report is the the result of a Joint Mission Group of Solar Industry Experts and Researchers, building on the findings of the European Commission Preparatory Study for Eco-Design, Energy Labelling, Green Public Procurement and Ecolabelling.  The findings of the Expert Input Paper aim to support the criteria development process within the framework of compulsory policy instruments further evaluated in the supporting study.
