Currently, 10-25% of EU buildings host solar panels and the rooftop market continues to grow. It could see another boost as Europe agrees new support for the industry.

This includes the new Energy Performance of Buildings Directive, which introduces an EU Solar Standard, expected to change solar from an add-on to a core construction element.

For this live podcast recording, Watt Matters producer Kira Taylor looks into the emerging trends and what more is needed to boost the industry, with a panel of special guests: Anette Persson, policy officer at the European Commission, Nathalie Rubin-Delanchy, public policy manager working on EU sustainability policy at Amazon, Arttur Kulvik, senior vice president of Solnet and Nicolas Randria, secretary general at the Fédération Française du Bâtiment.
