Fig. 6: Rooftop PV potential and its contribution to EU short- and medium-term policy goals.
From: Mapping Europe’s rooftop photovoltaic potential with a building-level database
Comparison of the rooftop rooftop PV technical potential for RBs and NRBs in the European Union with projected PV capacities for 2030 under the REPowerEU target and two 2050 full decarbonization scenarios: Policy-Oriented Tool for Energy and Climate change Impact Assessment (POTEnCIA) of the Clean Energy Technology Observatory (CETO) and 100% Renewable Energy Sources (RES). The figure highlights the extent to which rooftop PV could contribute to achieving EU renewable energy and decarbonization objectives. Bar labels denote the corresponding potential electricity generation TWh.
