The EU wants to make solar power its single biggest source of energy by 2030. That would mean almost tripling its solar power generation capacity over the next seven years. Yet, as Simson reminded delegates, more than three-quarters of the EU’s solar panel imports in 2021 “were from one single country”.
Europe’s solar industry is facing its deepest crisis in more than a decade as steep competition from China erodes manufacturing in the sector, rendering the continent’s hope of greater energy independence even more wishful. More solar panels were installed than ever before across the European Union last year in a boon for the bloc’s climate goals.
Aug. 1, 2024 — Photovoltaic (PV) technologies, which convert light into electricity, are increasingly applied worldwide to generate renewable energy. Researchers have now developed a molecular treatment that ... July 31, 2024 — A coating of solar cells with special organic molecules could pave the way for a new generation of solar panels.
The move aimed at ruling out forced labor, but caused equipment to flood into Europe. Research firm Rystad Energy estimated last July that around €7 billion worth of Chinese-made panels had piled up in European warehouses, capable of producing about the same amount of energy as all the panels that were installed in the region during 2022.
This round-up brings you the key stories from the energy sector over recent weeks. Top energy news: Global renewables generation hits 40%; Britain’s last coal-fired power plant to close; AI “could hurt oil prices in next decade”.

Europe was once the world’s largest solar power manufacturer, producing 30 per cent of all photovoltaic panels in 2007. But Beijing’s big industrial policy push caused Chinese production to increase and prices to decline, just as Europe was suffering the after-effects of the 2008 financial crash.
