The aim is clear: achieve the 17 sustainable development goals and double the share of renewable energy power by 2030. Until the end of the decade, renewable power should supply 57% of worldwide energy. A tough job for the solar industry. read more
“Spain is one of the countries leading the solar renaissance in Europe,” stated the SolarPower Europe Policy Analyst Raffaele Rossi. In October 2018, the Spanish government officially cancelled the infamous “sun tax”, which hindered and discouraged the development of solar energy in Spain. It is therefore no wonder, that in 2018, 235 MW were added to the national grid. Compared to 2017, the installed capacity increased by 94%. read more
