SolarPower Europe / Solar Market Report & Membership Directory 2016 EDITION / 3
Foreword:
From the President and the CEO
Dear Members,
Welcome to the 2015 Market Report and the 2016 edition of the Members Directory. Its
the first time we are combining the Market Report and the Members Directory to bring
together two of our flagship publications. The new format provides the details of all our
members alongside the key numbers for 2015 to give visibility to both the evolution of
the market and the key solar players in Europe. We hope you like this new format and
encourage you to provide your feedback to us on the new style.
Firstly, examining the figures, 2015 marked a good year for solar in Europe with an annual
growth of some 15%. This is the first time the sector has grown year on year since 20102011,
so we should celebrate this achievement. Europes solar twodigit growth in 2015, however, was
primarily based on the UK market. Most other European solar markets are still in a transition phase.
Globally 2015 was another record year for solar with a growth of over 25% on 2014, with more
than 50 GW connected to the grid up from 40 GW in 2014. The two biggest markets are located in
Asia China and Japan, while the USA ranked third. China not only added more than twice as much
solar as Europe, it also exceeded 40 GW of total installed capacity as a country, taking the number
one rank from longtime leader Germany. At the global level solar is booming with new markets
appearing across the globe, all presenting their own unique opportunity for our sector.
With nearly 100 GW of installed capacity, Europe is still the most solarized continent. No other
region can boast solar shares as high as Europe on average nearly 4% of electricity demand comes
from solar, and in its most advanced solar markets around 8%. The challenge is now to quickly
master the transition phase from solar markets that grew on feedin tariff incentive schemes
to new, marketbased frameworks, where prosumers use solar power for selfconsumption in
residential, commercial and industrial sectors. In that sense, Europe again is the pioneer of solar.
After developing solar, Europe now has to quickly create a smart electricity market design that builds
on the strengths of solar power technology to be able to profit from the low cost solar has achieved.
In 2016 policymakers in Europe will play a key role in setting out the future of solar in Europe, with
the legislative initiatives on electricity market design and renewable energy targets for the post
2020 period due to be brought forward. These need to build a stable and ambitious investment
climate for solar to ensure that growth continues and that solar reaches its potential in Europe.
There is still a lot of work to be done to see a sustainable level of growth achieved in Europe, but
the work of SolarPower Europe in 2015 has begun the process to see that objective achieved. The
foundation stones laid in 2015 have strengthened the association tremendously in comparison to
previous years and with a new dynamic approach in place the successes of 2015 stand us all in good
stead to make a difference in 2016.
In relation to this, it is important to reflect on the key achievements of 2015. These are listed

These key achievements are by no means an exhaustive list, but provide a flavour of the type of
work that has been successfully undertaken in 2015. There will be more to come in 2016.
Following on from the first strategic plan devised for 2015, the Board endorsed the approach for
2016, ensuring that the main focus of the association would be on consolidating in the European
solar sector, to create a truly reflective membership fit for solar in Europe today. The plan also
highlighted the key importance of advocacy success on the key dossiers already in front of us in
2016: Electricity market design, renewable energy targets for 2030, potentially ending the trade
case and opportunities for solar in energy efficiency and buildings initiatives all coming out of the
European Commission in 2016. As ever the Board and the Team continue to engage with the highest
levels of European policymaking ensuring that your views are well represented on the issues of
importance to you.
In 2016 SolarPower Europe will continue its ethos of customer service orientation and innovation to
make sure we are leading on the issues that matter to our sector today. Already we have instituted a
storage and solar taskforce, aiming to identify the ways in which solar and storage can be promoted
to be mutually beneficial. We will also continue to take forward our projects, with three particularly
looking at new ways to provide finance for solar in Europe PV Financing, Solar Bankability and
CrowdfundRES. Innovative means will be needed to drive the sector forward as the age of traditional
FeedinTariffs (FIT) schemes comes to an end. This work is also backed up by the work we are
undertaking in the Tendering Taskforce, to make sure that tenders better reflect best practice and a
more harmonised approach across Europe.
Enjoy reading the Market Report and Members Directory, we look forward to sharing a hugely
successful 2016 with you!

Solar Market Report 2015
Executive Summary
2015 was an extraordinarily successful year for solar power worldwide. The capacity
of new global gridconnected solar photovoltaic (PV) systems increased by 25%
yearonyear, while solar in European countries grew by around 15%. In total, the world
has so far grid connected an impressive 229 GW of solar capacity.
Globally, for the first time over 50 GW of solar power was connected to the grid in a single year, 25%
up from 40.2 GW in 2014 (These numbers refer to gridconnected solar and are generally lower than
data for installed capacities).
In 2015, China, Japan, and the USA were the 3 global solar markets, in the same order as the year
before. China was not only again the worlds largest market, adding 15.1 GW capacity, it also took
over the helm for the country with the largest total installed solar capacity, reaching 43 GW by the
end of 2015. This title had been held by Germany previously.
Europe experienced a first growth year in 2015 for the first time since 201011. It added about 8.1
GW of new ongrid solar power, a 15% increase over the 7 GW that went online in 2014. With nearly
100 GW of solar installed, Europe was still the worlds largest solar continent in 2015.
The European solar sector is in the middle of a transition phase. Last years market growth should
not distract from the big solar picture on the Continent: Without the contribution of the UK, with
about 3.7 GW, the European solar market would have remained roughly at the 2014 level.
This report, unlike most others, is based on gridconnected capacities, as this is a better metric to
characterize the role of solar in energy systems than installed capacities or shipments. While around
50 GW were gridconnected in 2015 (research status: March 1, 2016), estimates for installed
capacities are as high as 59 GW. The estimates mainly differ because a number of systems were
installed towards years end, but not gridconnected or reported.

5. Outlook
Nearly 100 GW of solar gridconnected solar systems in Europe at the end of 2015 is a truly
impressive number. The 15% growth last year doesnt mean a turnaround for the European solar
sector after three years of decline. While the once leading European markets are still in a transition
phase, the sectors growth in 2015 is based on the attractive solar incentive program in the UK. In
2016, solar in Europe will again be characterized by large solar volumes supported by the British
solar incentive scheme, but it is unlikely that the final three months of the program will suffice to
bring demand for solar to the 2015 level. However, 5 trends will shape solar in Europe in 2016:
1. Solar Battery energy storage is evolving 4. New players are becoming very active

incentive for distributed solar in Europe;
with solar power prices being much lower 5. Europe continues to lose market share

solar markets in Asia and America.
3. Tenders are being established in Europe as
the dominant scheme for largescale solar
plants, transparently showing how low solar
power prices continue to decrease.
The European Commission under its President Jean Claude Juncker has stated the ambitious goal to
be the world leader in renewables. While Europe has indeed been the cradle of the global success
story of solar power, others have taken over the lead for a technology, that is now able to generate
power at a cost lower than most fossil fuels, offshore wind, and quickly approaching onshore wind.
The key to the next solar growth cycle in Europe, however, is in the hand of policy makers
taxes or other obstacles will strongly limit selfconsumption, the crucial mechanism to empower
prosumers. Tenders need to be restricted to large groundmounted PV power plants, organized
transparently and regularly, and at volumes that are large enough to keep administration cost for
participants as low as possible. The trade measures in place on solar modules and cells imported
from China also need to be lifted to stimulate demand in the European market.
But importantly, driving down technology costs is not enough. The market design and the future
RES Directive currently being discussed in Brussels in 2016/17 will be key to make solar a major
contributor to Europes power mix and the Continent a future global leader in solar again.
