The price of solar PV modules has decreased significantly over the past decade, with the cost of solar power falling below grid parity in many parts of Europe, thereby increasing market competitiveness, as both established and new players compete for market share.
Therefore, the further development of the PV market will be associated with a reduction in investment costs, materials and services related to the construction of installations, which account for nearly 30% of installation costs . 6. Lessons learned from photovoltaic development in the european union
Another lesson from the EU photovoltaic development is that the development of the PV sector requires further investments and outlays for the development. The policy governing the PV installations should be adjusted to changing product life cycle assessment.
The importance of the development of PV systems in the EU economy is confirmed by the data, which shows that over 260,000 jobs were provided by this sector, increasing by 38% compared to the global PV sector in 2011 . However, the market changed from 2011 to 2015, and it lost almost 50% of jobs .
Photovoltaic energy is a future energy generation source for the EU economy, which plans to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 40% in 2030 compared to the 1990 levels. At the same time, the EU established the target of increasing the renewable energy share to 32% .
Continuous advancement of several photovoltaic components including mounting structures, solar cells, battery, modules and others along with robust government aided investments to scale up the deployment of photovoltaics will positively impact the business scenario.
