SolarPower Europe's annual flagship report, the "Global Market Outlook for Solar Power 2023-2027", exclusively launched at Intersolar Europe, assesses recent market developments for the solar sector and models future growth trends across different ambition scenarios.

This year’s report zooms in on the role of solar in Southeast Asia. With total solar capacity of 32 GW in the region, 3.4 GW was installed last year, slightly down from the 4.2 GW installed in 2021.

Produced in partnership with the Global Solar Council, the Global Market Outlook for Solar Power provides industry-leading market intelligence and sets out clear signals for investors to take solar further, while also informing SolarPower Europe's award-winning political advocacy.

The report was first presented on June 13, 2023 at the Intersolar Europe Conference in Munich.

Despite strong research capabilities and the presence of leading production equipment suppliers, Europe has been struggling to rebuild competitive wafer-to-module manufacturing, while the USA and India have enabled a local renaissance in solar manufacturing. In Europe, even long-established inverter manufacturers have been losing considerable ground. With the EU's Net Zero Industry Act yet to deliver momentum, attention is turning to the upcoming Industry Accelerator Act. This session examines how policy, investment and value-chain strategies can strengthen domestic manufacturing and increase internal value creation.Key topics:Overview of EU and national policy frameworks to support local manufacturingStatus of Europe's solar manufacturing value chainInvestment gaps and competitiveness challenges Strategies for triggering a sustainable solar manufacturing revival
