State of the European Energy System | Solar for Freedom, Security and Unity
Description
In this episode of Shine On Policycast, host Bethany Meban sits down with Walburga Hemetsberger, CEO of SolarPower Europe, for a deep dive into the future of Europe’s energy system. As the new political season begins, we analyse European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen’s State of the Union address and its implications for the Europe’s energy future.
We explore the trajectory of solar in Europe, the role of energy storage in securing grid stability, and the policy measures needed to accelerate solar PV growth across the EU. Whether you’re an energy professional, policymaker, or solar industry expert, this conversation provides insights on what’s next for Europe’s clean energy transition—and how the EU can ensure solar continues to soar.
