9 July 2020, Brussels – With strategic partners IPVF, ESMC, ETIP-PV, and VDMA, SolarPower Europe organised the first virtual conference of the ‘Solar Manufacturing Accelerator’. The initiative, launched in May by SolarPower Europe, aims to accelerate the deployment of solar PV manufacturing projects in Europe to strengthen European leadership in renewable technologies and contribute to the reindustrialisation of the continent, supporting a European green recovery.
The conference included 10 presentations from shovel-ready European solar manufacturing projects, featuring manufacturing and innovation of cells, modules and wafers, which represents more than 20,000 new jobs in Europe. The projects were presented to European Ministers, EU policymakers, and stakeholders.
