This report is essential for you or anyone interested in the fast-growing net metering and self-consumption solar PV market in Europe, including investment trends overview, competitive landscape, and forecasting how investment volume in this market will develop over the next ten years. In addition, this report provides a comparative analysis of existing mechanisms supporting the net metering and self-consumption of electricity in all European countries and highlights the challenges and opportunities associated with their developments. You will also find a detailed explanation of how to classify net metering and self-consumption support schemes and what their characteristics are.

There are four key drivers behind the continuing net-metering and self-consumption solar PV market growth in Europe, which is expected in the next decade. The first one is the drastic reduction of feed-in tariffs in many countries. Therefore feed-in tariffs started to lose their power as a driver of renewable energy growth since 2011, and this process will continue. The second one is grid parity, which is progressing, and by 2026 not only sun-belt countries but also many countries with less solar irradiation will have grid parity. The third one is the growth of the smart grid concept, market and services, which make it easier to integrate renewable energy systems for net-metering and self-consumption. Finally, the fourth one is the growth of electric vehicles and related energy storage and charging infrastructure in Europe.
