Europe’s Net Zero Industry Act (NZIA) has been implemented “too slowly” to revive the continent’s solar PV manufacturing industry, according to a report by the industry group SolarPower Europe.

The EU’s REPowerEU plan to shift away from Russian gas is “faltering” despite ongoing turmoil in global fossil fuel markets, according to analysis by the European Court of Auditors (ECA).

Solar power saved the European Union €20 billion (US$22 billion) in gas imports between 1 March and 15 July, according to SolarPower Europe.

For the first month ever, solar PV has made up 25% of monthly electricity generation across the European Union in June 2026.

European solar manufacturing start-up Carbon has abandoned its plan to build a 5GW module assembly plant in France due to a lack of conditions required for EU-made solar PV manufacturing.

The European Commission (EC) has launched a new strategy to address the fossil fuel energy crisis in the Middle East and accelerate the “shift to homegrown, clean energies”, said EC president Ursula von der Leyen.

R.Power's Michał Swół speaks to PV Tech Premium about Germany's position as a leader in Europe's renewable energy auction space.

In its analysis, Ember examined grid capacity across 20 EU countries and found the major gap was at the transmission level, with a possible shortfall of 104 GW that would affect utility-scale solar projects.

PV Tech Premium explores the impacts that the EU's revised cybersecurity review will have on the continent's solar industry.

The European Council has formally adopted plans for a phased ban of Russian gas imports starting from March.
