From EU Law to National Action: Implementing the EU Solar Rooftop Standard
Online
By May 2026, all EU countries must implement the new Solar Standard under the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive. This transformative policy mandates solar installations on suitable buildings — starting with new and renovated commercial buildings, public buildings by 2030, and new residential homes.
But how can countries turn this high-level requirement into national law — and how ambitious will they be?
In this expert webinar, SolarPower Europe will launch its policy recommendations to guide national transposition. We’ll explore key decisions national authorities must make, such as:
- Compliance requirements (investment options, exemptions, minimum installation size, etc.)
- Ensuring rooftop PV integration into flexible electricity systems
- Enabling measures
- And much more
During the webinar, you'll hear from public officials working on implementing the requirement on the ground, a think tank on building flexibility, and two PV project developers.
Join us to gain early insight into how this new law will shape solar markets across Europe — and what role you can play.
