There is a “general consensus” that the EU “cannot idly stand by whilst the [solar manufacturing] industry is disappearing,” Johan Lindahl, secretary general of the European Solar Manufacturing Council (ESMC) told PV Tech Premium yesterday (5th March).

On the 4th of March, the Transport, Telecommunications and Energy Council (TTE) of the EU agreed to pursue methods to support the European solar manufacturing industry, which is facing what EU Commissioner for Energy Kadri Simson called a “very fragile situation”. Trade bodies the ESMC and SolarPower Europe met with EU state energy ministers, commissioners and members of parliament at a lunch at the TTE council.
