#JRCinMaps show that #solar energy is key to accelerating the green transition in Europe ☀ According to the EU Science, Research and Innovation recent study, rooftop PV, floating PV coupled with hydropower and bifacial PV along roads and railways could generate 1,208 terawatt-hours of electricity annually = Around 48% of the EU's 2022 electricity consumption! https://lnkd.in/d3xJx7gA

Embracing #solar energy is key to accelerating the green transition in Europe! Large-scale installation of rooftop photovoltaics (PVs), as well as innovative floating PV coupled with hydropower and bifacial PV along roads and railways can offer incredible opportunities with minimal environmental impact. In today’s post of #JRCinMaps, we dive deeper into the capacity potential of photovoltaic applications in the EU, country by country. According to our study, these applications could generate 1,208 terawatt-hours of electricity per year. That is around 48% of the EU's 2022 electricity consumption!
